I bow to the Karmic weight of the universe. History: The Fairy Tale Bride was listed at 99 cents for a Backlist Ebooks sale just before Christmas, and when the sale was over, I attempted to put the price back to $2.99. Amazon has (typical) kept it at 99 cents and so has B&N (not [...]
ANNOUNCEMENT: For any Kindle owners who don’t want to miss a second of the Turtle Mom Wedding saga (which began last year with Confessions of a Turtle Mom), you now have the option to subscribe to the About a Wedding blog on Amazon. Unfortunately, you cannot subscribe to blogs with the Kindle app yet, so you [...]
On Sunday, January 1, I unveiled my newest goal: to transform from sweats-enthusiast to sweat-enthusiast (i.e. stop sitting around by the woodstove and start working out to get into shape for the August wedding of my one and only daughter… for new readers, you can catch up on the Confessions of a Turtle Mom wedding [...]
Happy New Year! Can you believe it? I’m actually putting up a new chapter! I know. I’ve been MIA for most of December. The holidays are like that for me. Too much to do, not enough time. And then comes January 1st. A new year, a new set of resolutions. First one: finish up the [...]
In Wedding Promo News: (1) My daughter read my blog and approved. Woo Hoo! She says I got a few things wrong (she was a cheerleader for two years, for example). I’ve asked for a list of errata, and I’ll begin editing for posterity’s sake. (2) Amazon still has not raised the price from 99 cents [...]
Big Wedding Promo ended yesterday. Yay. None of my price changes have gone through so far, so you can still get The Fairy Tale Bride for 99 cents until the estributors actually deign to make the change. I’m hoping for tomorrow, but since they price match each other, I may have to rattle cages to [...]
I love the Harry Potter books. Love. Love. Love. So much so that I do actually plan to visit Harry Potter World in Orlando one day. My most favorite thing of all that has come from J. K. Rowling’s imagination, though, is not Butterbeer (kudos to the chefs who figured out how to actually make [...]
Okay. I took a few days off to recover from the 50 Day Wedding Promo blogging. Now it is time to give back to everyone who supported me (and give forward to those who are thinking about dipping a toe into the backlist/indie world of ebooks). As I’ve progressed on this journey of putting up [...]
In our house, when a shirt loses a button, we put it in the closet. Then put it back on, remember there’s no button, and put it back in the closet. Until we take it to Goodwill. I would like to be able to sew. It strikes images of Little House on the Prairie for [...]
Before a Turtle Mom becomes a mom, she is still a Turtle. Turtle Kid, Turtle Tween, Turtle Teen, Turtle…well, you get the point. And, as I’ve mentioned before a Turtle of any age likes a lot of shell time. In my shell, I do not need to worry about outward appearance. Apparently, this has resulted [...]
