Confessions of a Self Publisher: What this blog is
http://selfpublishingconfessions.blogspot.com/2012/02/what-this-blog-is.html
Confessions of a Self Publisher. Friday, February 17, 2012. What this blog is. Yeah, so I thought I would separate out my writing and self publishing thoughts from my more promotional thoughts regarding my fiction. Basically, this blog will be for other writers while my WriterKMadison blog will be for readers. They don't necessarily care about all of the inner workings of the publishing industry (ya know, bc I am such. Or the challenges of publishing in multiple formats to multiple different stores.

Confessions of a Self Publisher. Monday, April 16, 2012. To lighten up the tone after all my lawsuit bitching, I thought I'd share this. May we all aspire to write such timeless books as these:.
