That book! Part 4

I know what you’re thinking. She has to be done, right?

Nope. The next part in my spare time is going back to writing the second book. I want the release to be close to the first, maybe even the preorder to start with the release of the first. That means I need to write fast.

And….I need another cover. I have chosen my title: Some Late Visitor. I am anxious to get with my cover designer to choose the image. I hope to again use the raven as part of my design.

I already have an idea for my third novel in the series, so I also will start taking notes and maybe write out the first scenes. I want the relationship to move along as well, so I will have to consider what situations to put my characters in to force them to interact on a more personal level.

And then I get to wait a little more.

But, check out the process so far!!
Here's the link for the first book: https://www.amazon.com/Midnight-Dreary-Mystery-Rachael-Rawlings-ebook/dp/B079NTWX2S/ref=sr_1_3?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1518369720&sr=1-3&keywords=rachael+rawlings

Mini Happy Planner with Stamps!

So now that I'm trying to control all of my writing goals from one book, I'm finding that the traditional cute stickers are a little harder to use. I love the look of them, and will still use them in my memory recording and my normal planning, but I think I like these stamps as well.

Let me tell you a secret. Aliexpress. Never heard of it? It's the Amazon counterpart from overseas and they have great prices on stamps and washi tape. I can't help it, I'm addicted. Because so many of the stamps on this layout were a bargain (under 2 dollars for a sheet) I got a good variety of them. My disclaimer here, some of the stamps have misspellings (they are from overseas) and they may take months to ship. However, if you don't mind the wait, you can buy tons of variety and......ta da!

My inks are mostly from Michael's, many from the bargain bin. Yeah!

So now my layouts have tags for twitter, Pinterest, editing, posting (for Facebook), and, oh, year, writing.

Oops! Now I guess I'd better get back to that!

(Notice in the corner, my little cover photo of The Cockatoo Called. Cute, huh?)

How to learn Tumblr

subtitle: get a teenager  to help you!

I am reaching out, stretching my social wings beyond the comfortable world of Facebook where me and the rest of my admittedly slightly older crowd like to show adorable pics of our (fill in the blank with dogs, children, birds, crafts etc)

I have this Blogger, a bit of a ramble about what I am thinking about at the moment. I have a wordpress that is hanging out in the net biding its time. I have a Google +, an admittedly confusing venue, but fun to explore. Oh, and my Wix site (my daughter set that one up too)

But none comes as close to the confusion of articles, images, videos, gifs, as the system that is Tumblr. So I started my Tumblr, and a week later, it appears that I am the only one who has ever seen my blog.

What the hey?

Time to call in the professional, ie, my teenaged daughter. So as I watch, totally confused, she is making my Tumblr. 

I can't wait until tomorrow to see how many Likes I get...or is it +1, or, hmmmm reblogs?

What is your favorite social media platform?
