Hello Everybody!
Sorry that it’s been a while since my last blog post, but my family just recently moved across the country and I’ve started a new job out in Tennessee. It’s a little bit different from what I am used to in Utah, but I can tell that I am already going to like living out here.
Needless to say, I haven’t been completely unproductive over the last couple of weeks. I have managed to stay on top of my writing, and as you can see I have moved the progress bar for Shadowbinder up to 10%! We are making steady progress. On track to finish the novel by the end of 2017.
I’ve been reading “Six-Figure Author” by Chris Fox, and I have to say that the idea of using KU and publishing independently is very appealing to me. It seems like that is the direction the industry is heading, and I feel like it will allow me to simultaneously be an author and an entrepreneur. I’ll have to do a little more research before I make my decision (luckily I have time… I don’t even have a book to publish yet), but honestly I am leaning more toward indie pub and away from traditional pub.
My writing is improving every day, and I can tell that I am getting much faster. Even with my day job, I am managing to pump out about 1,000 words per day, which is almost double what I am used to doing. Hopefully, if I am consistent enough and I don’t give up, and can be doing this full-time in the next few years.
Anyways, I look forward to updating you more in the near future! Until then,
Stay Classy.
-Blake
