Widow Woman is now officially published and available for purchase on Amazon!

Yikes–talk about a scary moment.

It has been such a long journey to get to this day; I still can’t believe it’s real. Of course, now the real work of a writer begins (at least in today’s brave, new publishing world): book marketing.

I won’t lie–it’s not a role with which I feel very comfortable. Back in college, I used to sell Cutco cutlery to try to make a little extra cash. I failed miserably. It wasn’t because the knives weren’t great (they are–I’ve still got my original starter set), but because I suck at selling. I’m just not a schmoozing, networking, self-promoting kind of gal. I’m at my most comfortable hunched over my keyboard or a legal pad, having imaginary conversations with the folks in my head.

But if I don’t get comfortable, and fast, this beautiful blossom I’ve produced will wither and die on the vine.

So I will market! I will sell! I will self-promote!

Ugh. I will vomit.

But I promise not to do it in front of you.

Anyway, have at it–it’s been a long road to get here, and I hope you find the journey with me was worthwhile.

Thanks for your support! [By the way, if you recall, I’m technologically inept, so the image below is just that, an image. To link to Widow Woman, just click on the title. I apologize for my ineptitude, but there’s only so much technology I can learn in one day, and the image just about killed me.]
