Half way through The Girl of Diamonds and Rusts, and I'm a little worried...#amreading #chicklit #kindle #kindleunlimited #author #blogging

Anyone who reads a series by me knows, that book three is always the book of revelations, and I'm a little worried what my readers will think about what I reveal. I'm doing it again, breaking those darn rules, but it's their story and I can't change them now. Neil Stanton, Chrissie Parker and Alan Manzone are who they are. Will my readers be shocked. Will this be the book that makes them throw their kindles? Will I slit my own publishing wrists by releasing it? We'll find out soon enough, won't we?

I'm relieved to almost be tying up this series, having it all out. I should have all the books for my series out by May, my one year anniversary of being an Indie. That will give me 12 books in 1 year, a little under halfway to releasing 26 in two years. But I think I'm going to take some time and evaluate whether I want to go on. It's been fun. Readers are amazing people, and while the book thing does making a living wage and my business is profitable, I'm not really sure I want to do this as a permanent part of my life. It's hard to sell a book and books ARE like children. You watch them, tend them, keep them going into reader world. It's more a full time thing than my full time thing.

And I am an inescapable realist. So there are some hard questions I'm going to ask myself based on where my business is. Can I write? I've always believed if the product is good and you work hard, the market gives you the honest answers to your questions. I'm not sure how much of what I'm experiencing in 2015 has to do with the Facebook changes or if maybe readers don't like my work, maybe I can't write.  In the very least, I think I'll be doing my second year of releasing differently. Just letting the books go and not care what happens. Old writers are like Generals; we don't die, we fade away.

But it has been fun and I thank you all, especially my incredible readers.

As ever, I wish you Peace.
