Week 26

Having a couple of weeks off - building a new wetroom at home for aged P - so nothing to report.

Week 25

I can't believe I've been doing this for 6 months!
I returned to writing this week and have just completed a short story called 'The House' - a dark tale of misery and despair. Anything to cheer me up! I've entered it for the Bridport prize and the Bristol Prize - so we'll see if I have any success. I've got an an idea for another one, so hopefully I'll be in time to get that entered for the Bridport Prize as well.

Week 24

Not a lot happened on the book promotion front. Amazon paperback and Kindle are now interlinked and all is functioning correctly - which is good. Now I can get on with other things.
I've started writing again after a long break and am concentrating on short stories for the moment. I'm going to enter various competitions and try to get some published in magasines/newspapers in an attempt to raise my profile while I wait to see if YPD has any luck in their promotion.

Week 23

I managed to re-configure the PDF to MS Word and upload it to Kindle on Amazon - it took me forever - there must be a simpler way. Still - the italics are there!
I will keep the next book fully up-dated in MS Word to save this problem occurring again.
There were still one or two minor indentation oddities but it is ok for release.
I must learn how to do this properly.
There is no contents section - I wasn't quite sure how to do it, but I couldn't see the point anyway.
Contents sections are useful for non-fiction ie cookery/gardening/etc books but not for fiction.
With trying to promote the book and other personal commitments I haven't written anything for six months - hopefully I can get back to it now.
