The Changes Never End

Five Reasons I Self-Publish
I am pleased to announce that I have received my first check from Amazon Digital Services for sales of my two novels. A little celebratory music please! Okay, that’s enough. Now that the music and cheering across blogosphere has subsided, the reality of the first payment sets in. After more…
