kluvs2write is setting goals

Going in all sorts of directions 6 months ago

I can write clear, concise essays and nonfiction including marketing materials. When it comes to fiction I become lazy. When I tell my “life stories” people say “You should write a book.” They’re so crazy even I don’t believe it happened to me.

Friends say I write good and have potential, yet I feel that all I can do is write to them! It’s pretty easy to write to people who care about what you have to say!

I have all the author books, I just don’t know if I want to go through the trouble of writing a book that will never see the light of day!

I would love to write a book every month for the next thirty years and have them all published.



First Article 18 months ago

I still dream of writing a few novels one day, but for now I have a paying gig writing monthly articles on various parent-oriented topics for a LOCAL magazine.

I viewed the latest galley from Authorhouse… I believe we finally have it right! They’ll be sending it to the printer now, then I’ll get a copy to preview ;)

Today has been exciting! 22 months ago

I received a copy of what my business card, postcard and bookmark will look like (if I approve of them). I think the background color should be changed, I’m also wondering why the picture is sideways on the business and post card, but that’ll all be worked out. The wording for each is great though ;)

I also received an electronic copy of the galley, I see where 2 corrections need to be made. I’ll double check before signing off on it this time! Doing things prematurely is costly~

After completing my modification forms... 22 months ago

I discovered that I need to add 2 pages so the count won’t change. I may add a photo and I wanted to add a page that would be a letter to my readers, providing an e-mail address just for the book so that I can be contacted with questions, comments, etc…
