So, I just finished the first read-through of my work-in-progress novel, and am truly pleased with it.

However, much like racing to the end of a good book, my #writing rushed to the end of this one. The final several chapters need a lot more meat on their bones.

Still, it feels good to reach this point. Now, onward to the second (of many) reading. #writingcommunity #writers

The latest from my #writing blog is a short post on #Amazon A+ Content, if you're interested #writingcommunity

Question for #writers & the #writingcommunity : What online advertising/sales platforms have you had the most success with recently?

For better or worse, I reduced my advertising during the COVID economic downturn, and am trying to ramp it back up, but my frame of reference is outdated. I was using Amazon Ads and BookBub and some smaller services, but I feel out of the loop. Any comments are appreciated.

Latest from my #writing blog: In honor of the 10th anniversary of Crimson & Cream's publishing, I commissioned new book covers for the entire Oxbow Kingdom Trilogy. #writingcommunity #fantasy

I have a new article posted to my blog regarding my dabbling in AI-generated art, if you're interested.

Since I was posting daily #nanowrimo updates back in November, I realize I haven't said much in the way of #writing lately.

I'm reading/editing/polishing the first draft of my fantasy/sci-fi novel. Planning to tackle Chapter 18 (out of 59) today.

IMHO, it's going well. 👍

Nothing inspires me to write like reading my favorite authors. Currently knee-deep in a Joe Abercrombie novel, and itching to work on my own story. It's a good feeling.

I have a new blog post featuring some 2022 BookBub marketing and self-publishing resources, if you're interested.

Daily #nanowrimo update: 26,291 words written in 22 days.

As of last night, I've finished the first draft! 🍾 🎉 😁

So since I'll be transitioning into the revising/editing/polishing phase, I'll stop with the daily word count updates (lucky you, #CoSo) 😉

Thank you all for your support, and Happy #Thanksgiving! 🦃

FYI, this is me, procrastinating.

Question for other CoSo writers. I'm an indie/self-published fantasy novelist and do my own advertising. For a variety or reasons, I stopped running book ads during the pandemic, but am starting up again.

Do you have luck with any online advertising platforms you could recommend? I just ran an ad with Fantasy Book Deals which generated zero sales. Feels like I'm starting from scratch. Appreciate any tips. Thanks!
