#publishing day

It’s publishing day!

Though I had hoped to publish before March😞

I thought I was done editing, only to find myself going back again and again. Perfectionism can be a real plague. There was always something to reword, to fix, and cut and add and undo. Yes, it made loads of improvements, but at some point, you've got to say enough and move on.

It was also quite heartbreaking to know I can't put the ebook up for free. I had to sell my right to publish elsewhere to Amazon to squeeze out five meager days of free access. I’ll be spreading the links out and posting each free access day. Please be sure to check the post within 24 hours for the link!

For now, you can check the book here.

Oh, and if you miss the first or second day, don't worry; there'll still be three more days to read for free. If you decide to grab the paid version to support me, or if you’re just eager to dive in, I’m incredibly grateful!

I'm already working on my second short story, and this one'll be a collection of three, so I look forward to it.

Thank you for being with me through this journey.

Today marks a huge step towards my dream of becoming a professional writer, and I couldn't have done it without you.

Went to the midnight release of Iron Flame @books-a-million & had the book in hand at 12:02! 🙌 Headed home to cozy up and settle in for a trip to Basgiath.

Happy Pub Day to past MiP guest VASHTI HARRISON!!!

Featuring the true stories of 40 women creators, ranging from writers to inventors, artists to scientists, Visionary Women Around the World inspires as it educates. Readers will meet trailblazing women like Mary Blair, an American modernist painter who had a major influence on how color was used in early animated films, actor/inventor Hedy Lamarr, environmental activist Wangari Maathai, architect Zaha Hadid, filmmaker Maya Deren, and physicist Chien-Shiung Wu. Some names are known, some are not, but all of the women had a lasting effect on the fields they worked in. The charming, information-filled full-color spreads show the Leaders as both accessible and aspirational so reader knows they, too, can grow up to do something amazing.
