Bogged in a Marketing Mire

Posted on March 13, 2014 at 5:42am 0 Comments 0 Likes

It's the end of summer here in Auckland. The historical fiction project is finished (http://goo.gl/zXdRQK) and I'm at a loose end. I've never enjoyed marketing, so I'm putting it off.

I know, I know, procrastination is not a good look in an author, but who else actually LOATHES the marketing aspect of self-publishing? The freedom of being able to publish via Kindle and Smashwords etc is wonderful, but the pay-off is the ongoing slog to rally…

I write sci-fi novels filled with adventure, mystery, romance, drama, horror, and many more genres all mixed in... Sci-fi for everyone to enjoy. I'm also a published poet. When you have a moment, please check out my Authors page and a few of my videos and blogs I've recently added. Many of my blogs consist of free to read enjoyable sci-fi stories I plan to unite within a book. My newest sci-fi novel: 'They!' Let me know if you'd like to become friends.

Thanks for becoming a friend... My novels are also at Amazon Kindle... Also B&N Nook, Smashwords, and many more eBook stores around the world. Although I'm too to busy to submit and maintain all the eBook stores, so I use the E-Novel Shop. This allows me to continue writing, which is what I love to do. I'm currently writing a whole mess of short sci-fi stories. For me, writing short stories is far different than writing a novel. Too many endings! LOL...I just finished 'Monsters Are Among Us' for Halloween... I've been using these short stories to promote my novels and my name as being a sci-fi novelist.

Thanks...

Hi Lori. Nice to meet you. Isn't it funny how we each find our way to writing? Great that you've found success with the children's books (I've tried children's writing, but I haven't got 'the knack').

Cheers,

Lisa.

Welcome to Authors.com. I'm new to the group also. I started writing six years ago and FINALLY published my first book a few months ago. Deadly Remembrance.
