Sugar and Spice: Excuses, Excuses, Excuses
http://dyannbarr.blogspot.com/2012/09/excuses-excuses-excuses.html
Sunday, September 2, 2012. Excuses, Excuses, Excuses. One thing you have to understand about me is this- I hate not turning in papers on time, not getting work done when I'm supposed to, and most of all, breaking my promises. My self-imposed deadline for my new book came and went. I set a new date. That one flew by me at light speed. The third one loomed closer and I knew it was a no go. My agent, Jewelann Cone of Cascade Literary Agency has been patient with me. God bless the woman. Excuse No. Two: ...

Sugar and Spice: December 2010
http://dyannbarr.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 6, 2010. I thought writing the book was the scary part. Then it was the submission process. Even though I'm published, I'm still beating the bushes for an agent. The last three books I've submitted have netted about 150 rejections so far. Does that make me want to stop, give up, and curl myself into a fetal position under my desk? My agent is out there, waiting, but she or he doesn't know it yet. That's only the beginning of the scary stuff. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). New Blog for TKA.

Sugar and Spice: January 2014
http://dyannbarr.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 15, 2014. Taking Baby Steps- Learning New Technology and Eating Habits. I've sold another book and plan on self-publishing two, possibly three by the end of the year. Yay me! Until I realize that now come the hard part- marketing. Bookmarks are no longer enough. I have to dig into the nitty-gritty of trends, algorithms, keeping track of sales, and the sheer amount of number crunching that goes along with the new publishing paradigm. It's a do-it-yourself world. Let me tell you. It's th...

Sugar and Spice: Stretch it to the Limit
http://dyannbarr.blogspot.com/2013/02/stretch-it-to-limit.html
Tuesday, February 19, 2013. Stretch it to the Limit. It's been a while since my last post. There's a good reason- I've been exercising. No, unfortunately not my body, but my brain. I think it hurt just as much to stretch the old noggin as it did when I was in physical therapy for back pain. There were a couple of times I had to go back and redo things. It reminded me of my community theater days when I was directing Agatha Christie's Ten Little Indians. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). New Blog for TKA.

Sugar and Spice: November 2014
http://dyannbarr.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 21, 2014. Where Do You Get Your Ideas. I'm often asked, "Where do you get your ideas? To be honest, some pop into my head, full-blown, much like Athena from Zeus' head, while others are sparks by a news program, or something I hear on a radio program. There have been times that old family stories jog the creative process. First let me tell you, I usually do everything from scratch, but this is one of those recipes that really works with off-the-self mixes. Consider it a time saver...

Sugar and Spice: October 2010

Thursday, October 7, 2010. I'm blogging on Dreamweavers! Learn as we learn the wild, rocky and yet surprising road to fulfilling our dreams- one story at a time. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. I bet you thought I fell off the face of the earth. No, it's been an incredibly busy few months. My first book is coming out November 12th and it's still hard to believe. Check out the Wild Rose Press.com or Amazon.com for A Perfect Bride for Christmas. The perfect wife will launch Alex King to junior partner in his l...

Sugar and Spice: Scoops of Love
http://dyannbarr.blogspot.com/2014/11/scoops-of-love.html
Monday, November 10, 2014. Great things are happening in the next few days. All very hush-hush and delicious. Keep watch, but in the meantime, I wanted to share one of my favorite things. Recipes. How did it fail? So, the point is this—there are never any bad reviews. Please note—this doesn’t count for those people who troll the internet to spout hateful comments merely for the sake of hurting the author. So, having said that, let’s get back to the recipe I wanted to share today. Many people think they c...
