Felt good to do nothing but writing (and farming). All the various interruptions on July 4th showing up midweek, then fireworks for four days around it (drives some dogs nuts) - all lent to distractions. But I've got two books ready (nearly) to publish and another anthology to proof...

Mostly into research all week. Silva Method, if you must know. Because these time-shifters started it with their simultaneous time.

The Great Writing Business Challenge – Week 21 Results
Publishing takes a lot longer than editing. By far. All I really worked on - besides an interesting article I sent out to my tiny list of IF authors (says that your ads have to make over 120% in order to be profitable (and pay the increased taxes). If you want 50% of your income spendable, they have to be about 300%. Really.

The Great Writing Business Challenge – Week 11 Results
Still working just to get everything done - finally got my opt-in ad worked out for fiction. Not too surprising, the paperback versions of these new fiction books don't sell. Their reason for being there is to make the ebook look like a bargain. Non-fiction always has paper and hardbacks selling along with the ebooks. And some audio - where I have it available.

How to Quickly Recover from A Trump Mindset Collapse
Despondant? Gloomy? I can feel it from here. But it's curious that we had so many people feeling "destroyed" after this particular election. Sure, we had noticeable upset and protests when George W. got elected, but nothing like what is happening now. What Was Different in the Trump Election? Before we go there, I have to clue you in on something. How you feel now is due to how you've been thinking. and acting earlier. The way you've been doing things consistently form mental habits. The more you do things the same way, the more you re-enforce those habits. These habits allow you to function in our modern society. They take care of all the "now-you're-supposed-to's" which are acceptable manners. They also allow you to drive a car and still carry on a conversation with someone … [Read more...]
