I just celebrated 90 days of having opened my Etsy shop, PandaTudePress. It went by so fast, just like everything else has been in these last few years. What I’ve learned in this 90 days: With all these lessons, what has it gained? It may not seem like much, but I am very proud of…
For this week, I have not finished any audio books or ebooks or regular books. I haven’t been feeling well and I couldn’t focus on reading or even listening. I actually started Dr. Joe Dispenza’s, Becoming Supernatural, but it’s got A LOT of content that needs attention and focus. With my head all plugged up,…
Sad to say, but I actually dove into independent authoring around 2012? I wish I could say that my journey is much further than where it is right now. My one time claim-to-fame is that I did hit an Amazon Best Seller category on one occasion. But, that was a very short and fleeting experience.…
Time flies… I had no idea it had been seven months since I last posted. I don’t know about you, but my precious 24-hours seems to burn faster and faster each day. Well, after I aghast at my lack of contact, I decided to get back in here and let you know where I’ve been.…
I’m participating in the Writing Contest: You Are Enough, hosted by Positive Writer. I got an email from Positive Writer about a writing contest. Normally, I don’t pay attention to contests, but this one got my attention. Why? It spoke to me 🙂 The contest in its essence is asking writers to do only one thing —…
Sadly, I’ve been in self-publishing since 2012 without much to show for it. It’s not because the industry is poor or does not support indie authors. In fact, there are many self-published authors who are making milllllions. Yes, millions. The market is there. It is thriving and there is room for everyone. Naysayers will say…
One of the things that we writers struggle with is how to make our content more appealing. As a writer or author you’ve gone through great lengths to compose your literary art — whether it be through blogging, article writing, or writing a book. It’s not enough that your words are amazing and well thought…
So…. I have been muddling through writer’s block. As you might notice from my posts, it’s been a while since I’ve shared anything. Ugh! It’s been a struggle and my old tricks are not sparking any sustainable source of inspiration. I feel absolutely plugged up. Anyways, I’m not going to drone on about my blockages.…
In one of my earlier post, I talked about going back to “why-I-started-writing.” I have a tendency to run in circles for a long time. My mind is my own worst enemy. I hash and rehash the same issues over and over again. Some times, it seems I get to a place where I think,…
Being an author/writer has its challenges. There’s this misconception that authors have it easy. That writing a book is easy. Writing a blog is easy. Any writing is easy. Um… I don’t think so. Writing is a very mental game. In order to tap into creativity and connect with the “muse” an author’s mind has…
