Preparing for the Blog Hop

So, I’m doing this:

More info here.  (others coming up to, so don’t fret if you missed this one).

I have to say, something’s wrong with me, because I’m getting married July 28th and will be posting with a disclaimer stating I’ll probably be a bit slow getting back to people, cuz you know, wedding.

Regardless, I’ve been getting The Altar of Deimos ready to rock and roll. He has a new cover, a new blurb, and I’ve done a day in the life of an Incubus entry for the hop. I’m going to give away a $10 gift card for Amazon, and spend some money for the pot, probably a $20 investment total. Hopefully it will pay off.

In regards to Carrie Ann, the woman in charge, the words pleasant and professional spring to mind. She’s got some great advice on her blog. Her emails about the hop are timely (neither too late nor too early), easy to understand. And she responds to questions fast. A+, will hop around with again.

On a personal note, I really hope this does get a bit more traffic. I can honestly say, while I’ve had some great confidence building moments as a writer, my sales remain rather dismal. Thankfully, I’m kind of a dork, and get a lot of satisfaction from interacting with people. If you’re in the same spot, just starting out, bummed out by not moving product, may I suggest bullshitting with some of the writers you know online.

You can also give away your book, via Kindle Select or something. There’s a bevy of information out there about people’s experiences with doing this. Mine via Kindle select is a mix of “OMG people are reading shit I wrote!” and “meh”.

Wedding Hysteria

hysteria, madness, wedding

It’s two weeks before the wedding, and I want to know why the hell we didn’t elope.

All of sudden, who’s actually marrying us is up in the air. Thankfully my one friend is willing to do it. There’s definitely a baby at the wedding now. Our dog might be coming too, because the people who were supposed to watch him are now involved with the ceremony.

Speaking of which, I have no idea what’s happening with that. At some point, we’ll say “I do”, jam rings on each other’s fingers, and kiss.

My fiance has been combining his powers of procrastination with his ADD hyperfocus, and I’ll admit, it’s been driving me a little nutty lately. Thankfully most of the big decisions have been made.

Which leave me with one burning question: Why am I not drinking beer? It’s like 7:30 Friday night. I set these things up to post while I’m still sleeping the next day. Although I’ll probably want a beer when I wake up tomorrow.

Also, look at this recipe for Philadelphia Fish House Punch. Sounds perfect for a summer wedding, no?
