The final major edit of The Demon of Capra Town is done! Going to go through it one last time for syntax, then put a bow on it.
The artist for the cover is working on it now. Once finished, I am going to do a small Kickstarter for pre-orders.
More on this soon!

Wrapping up this book, I learned something important about outlining the next.
Scene outlines would be better explaining how the character or plot is going to evolve, rather than the milestones and general actions. Both is better, of course. But the first is important

Editor feedback, WattPad comments, and an audience materializing without me doing any real marketing.... Any moment now, I'll be flooded with notifications.
Right?
Yeah, not going to happen - what kind of activities are you doing to grow your audience?

You know what really #GrindsMyGears - when you fill out an enormous, time consuming online form. Then, at the end, they give you a "More Info" link that when clicked takes you off site and totally resets your form.

Good morning #5amWritersClub,
I am determined to figure out what gets our little community interacting with each other! Today's question:
What made you decide it was time to start writing a book? Was it recent, or a lifelong desire?

Goodness it's been a busy few weeks! Fancy dinner for our firm tonight, then back up in the morning for some #fantasy #writing
I'm so close to finishing this last edit of The Demon of Capra Town. But my brain is mush. Two chapters to go and one scene that is fighting me.

I think I am going to add some one-off, grade school level horror #novellas between my major #fantasy novel installments.
I have some great stories that need told, but just won't fit into the Multiverse of Kaddrom (well, anything can, but it just wouldn't vibe right).
I was a #Goosebumps kid...

Dear aspiring #authors,
The #publishing industry is problematic, including #selfpublishing.
Agents, editors, scammers - so many middle-people.
Write your own book, market it yourself, get your own artists.
You do the hard parts. They take the lion's share.
I know the solution. Follow for more.

Good morning #5AmWritingClub - remember, don't send your manuscripts to anyone that comes through your DMs, they are scammers. You aren't finding your first publishing agent and editor combo out of the blue on a random Tuesday at 4am your time, no intros.
Super gross, and waste's everyone's time.

Good morning #5amWritingClub - Today, I am editing out overused words. Currently working through about 600 counts of the word "that"... Damn my midwestern upbringing.
"that was", "at that", "that at?", etc.
I have a list of about 50 more words I want to massage out of the story.
