Thanks Rick for this opportunity. As you know I have a blog: http://callsignwreckingcrew.blogspot....

I post on it periodically...it is about our journey through self-publishing/Indie authors. It has blossomed into a way for us to share information with and for those learning about self-publishing or promoting our fellow indie authors. Sometimes it is a little of both. Sometimes it is about what is going on with our book and self-promoting.

My co-author has a friend trying to break into Children's books so I have copied down the links from the two Children's books groups and blogs.

Thanks again Rick for this amazing opportunity to share with others.

Have a great one!

Lynn

Marja McGraw (marja1) | 569 comments I have a guest blog up on my site this week at http://blog.marjamcgraw.com/. You might be interested in it because it's an interview with Rebecca Dahlke. She started an eNewsletter devoted to showcasing new mysteries. Very generous of her. Check it out.

Kelly | 8 comments Thanks so much for sharing, Marja! Just as an FYI, the Amazon link listed at the end of the interview goes to B&N.... : )

Marja McGraw (marja1) | 569 comments LOL Thanks for letting me know, Kelly. And I thought I checked those so closely.


message 107: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 8 comments It happens.... I checked it twice to make sure that I hadn't clicked the wrong one. Then I just got on my kindle and bought them off that. : ) I messaged RP Dahlke on her website to let her know that I enjoyed the blog. I signed up for the eNewsletter and took advantage of the Kindle August sale. Can't pass up $.99 books!


message 108: by Delaney (new)

Delaney Diamond (delaney_diamond) I write romance and I have 2 or 3 special guests on my blog each month discussing various topics related to romance and/or writing. I've had an advice columnist, a dating etiquette expert, a photographer that does boudoir photos, and other romance writers.

In September, I'll have a CPA offer business and tax advice to writers.

If you offer a service (in addition to writing) that you think writers or romance readers would like, contact me at delaneydiamond(at)ymail.com to discuss the details and I'll get you up on the schedule.

One Fridays, I post a new piece of short fiction and one day throuh the week, usually Tue or Wed, I post something related to books, reading, or words.

Tracy (jericho_tgf) | 4 comments I've been blogging my book reviews for a little over a year now, and am in the process of building a website. My reading preferences are primarily in the romance and science fiction/fantasy genres, heavy on the paranormal romance and urban fantasy. Everyone's welcome to stop by!

Another great interview, Marja. Thanks again for sharing! However, I am having trouble figuring out how to leave a comment to enter the giveaway?

Gerald Griffin (authorgeraldggriffin) | 13 comments My blog, http://geraldggriffin.blogspot.com , is relatively new, and I'm still working at making it refreshing, different and quite interesting, my last two posts being tremendous 5-star book reviews.

I guess I'm still searching for the right mixture and an intriguing theme, and I feel I have a ways to go before striking gold, if at all. For you gold miners,
I'd appreciate your visits to the site with suggestions as to where to pan.

Thank you,
