James Maxey and the Free Book

Recently I did an interview with author, James Maxey. It was a great experience. He answered the questions so honestly and thoroughly, which really added to the experience.

The other day, I got a surprise email from James. He asked me if I’d like a free copy of his upcoming book, signed to boot! Now how cool is that?

Of course I said I’d love a copy. In fact, I was thinking about hitting my local Chapters to buy a copy of his book, but now I won’t have to. Once I’m finished the book, I’ll add the review to my book review lens I created for James’s series.

Needless to say, even two days later I’m hyped about the book. Yes, it really doesn’t take that much to make me happy.

How to Write an Article in 20 Minutes or Less

A few days ago I posted a link that shows you how to write an eBook. Today I will post one that will show you how to write a decent article in twenty minutes or less. Article writing is essential if you want to market yourself, which is why it's always a good thing to brush up on your technique.

Here's the link: How to Write an Article

I hope the link helps you in some small way. I know I put a lot of effort into writing it and making it as complete as possible. In the meantime, good luck with your writing endeavours!

How to Write an eBook

Have you ever wanted to know precisely how to write an eBook?

If so, here’s a link for you that explains just that. I created it recently on Squidoo, and it’s getting some nice attention and hopefully giving people the confidence and knowledge to write their very own eBook.

Once you’ve read the lens, How to Write an eBook, you should be able to get a solid start on your eBook. However, if you’re still a bit confused or have a question that I didn’t cover, feel free to hit the ‘contact me’ button in my bio. It’s located on the top right hand corner of the lens. You can also leave a message or question in the guestbook located at the very bottom of the lens.

Hope you like it and good luck!

Interview with Author D.B. Reynolds!

Yesterday I had an interview with published author, D.B. Reynolds. I just finished reading her book, Raphael. Actually, I read it in less than two days, that’s how good it was. I received it Thursday afternoon in the mail, and had finished reading it by Friday night.

It’s really nice to see new authors emerging and succeeding, especially ones as good as D.B. Reynolds. I thoroughly enjoyed Raphael, and afterward I wrote up a review and landed the interview. The answers are fascinating.

If you’d like to read it yourself, come on by and tell me what you think. At the bottom of the review, there is a guestbook for readers to leave comments. Of course, you can always come on back here and leave a comment too. The important thing being that you get to read the interview and review.

April 28 and I'm Blue

My laptop went on the fritz today. It just started opening internet windows for nothing. Before I could shut it down and reboot, it had opened 41 pages without my consent.

Look! You’re a machine, not the master. If I want an internet window opened, I’ll let you know. In the meantime, just look pretty and above all else, just do as you’re told.

I told it, huh?

I’m sitting here now with a pretty big headache. Nothing life threatening yet, but it’s there. However, despite my headache, I’ve managed to pump out another mini-site. Here they are:

-The Ten Best Female Rock Bands
-Top Fifteen Greatest Hits Albums of All Time

-April Fool's Day Ideas

Stop by if you’re interested. I put a lot of work into these ones, and they’re full of cool posters and pictures. I think you’ll enjoy them.

Oh, and for the female rock bands – ROCK bands is the word you need to keep in mind. Not all-time female bands, but rock bands. That means pop stars like Madonna and Cher do not count!

Take care dear reader. I’ll be back soon...once this headache lifts.

Article Writing Advice

It’s been a wee bit since I last wrote in my blog. I think I’m going to open another blog that will feature Squidoo lenses by me and other people. It’s a really great community, and I’m enjoying writing up mini-sites.

In fact, I recently wrote a lens about how to write a Squidoo lens. While it was mainly for the purpose of lens creation, the tips can be applied to web writing in general. If you’re interested, check out Writing for Squidoo.

I also created a lensography. Don’t know what that is? Well, basically, it’s a little bit about me, some pictures and a categorized listing of the lenses I’ve created so far.

Moving right along...

I recently snagged a huge contract writing fitness reports. I’m super happy that I closed the deal. I won’t be looking for work any time in the near future, that’s for sure. The job consists of 18-15 page reports, and I’m very excited about it.

I recently conducted an interview with author, James Maxey. At the time, I was out of my head with excitement. It’s not every day that you get to interview a published author. Not only was he nice enough to allow me to question him, but he was an all around cool guy. He answered every question thoroughly, and I was quite pleased with the results.
