"Finished" another Chapter in The Harvest and Pimping for Friends

This morning, I finished another chapter in The Harvest. It was a bit rushed, and I am already rethinking how I will revise large portions of the novel. The pacing was fast, probably in my eagerness to get done, but the chapter still captures the spirit of what I had in mind originally.

This morning, I am having my husband print some small double-sided markers.  We'll see how the final version looks.  I have a few places in mind I want to drop them off.  Mostly, I think I'm going to carry them around, in case I run into fans of speculative fiction or avid Kindle readers. 


Also, his morning, I am pimping a few books and author sites from "friends" on writing groups.

Even though romance is not my genre, I have been reviewing more romances by other self-published writers.  This one is on my list.   The print is a bit overpriced, I think, but the Kindle version is $2.99 on Amazon.

Carmen Baca has another book out Las Mujeres Misteriosas that is bound to be a success.  This is her first self-published book, but look at that gorgeous cover! 

It is available on Lulu for $8.99.



Finally, check out this cowboy's books:  John F. Green's books.  He has some interesting speculative fiction I want to add to my Goodreads list.


That is all the pimping for today! 

Write, write, write and maybe, pimp books for a friend.  #Resist
