Five Things You Need To Know

St.Patricks Day Parade in Dungarvan Co.Waterford
By SeanByrne
Happy St. Patricks Day!
I'm on hiatus from social media but there are five things you need to know so you won't wander too far...




1. On March 26th I'm reviewing Breadcrumbs by Anne Ursu.
And then on March 28th author Carol Fisher Saller will be with us to talk about her book Eddie's War reviewed on the blog here.


2. Beginning in April I will be exploring Indie publishing and Traditional publishing from a more media savvy prospective. There are a lot of myths, contradictory and often adversarial information out there. With your help, I'm hoping to open a dialogue about publishing from the readers point of view. Isn't this the view that's the most important? 


3. While on hiatus I am also researching social media and making decisions about which ones will work best for me. I plan on sharing what I've learned in a new series I call, Joining The Online Dialogue: Why Writers Can't Be Shy Anymore.


4. The new Furry Friday will open it's first call for photo's so get ready to send in your favorite pet shots along with a caption for the There Can Be Only One Contest. 


5. And finally...I will be making an exciting announcement on April 1st and it's no April Fool. Trust me...it's so real I already have goosebumps.


So in the meantime... check out my sidebar for the awesome MMGM reviews every Monday. Or check out my list of most popular posts here on the blog, in case you missed them before.

  4. I like the fact that you'll see which social media works best for you. I find blogging very useful but Twitter quicker to navigate, and FB -- I'm still learning about it.

  5. I've done a lot of thinking about social media lately. There are just too dang many! I don't have time for them all.

    And I can't wait to hear your exciting news!!

  6. Thanks for visiting my blog today! Can I join you in the So I'm 50 thing, even though I just turned 51?! I love your upcoming topics. I've published both traditionally and indy, so I'd be happy to add any personal insights I can into your discussion. I also have a good friend who is a talented writer and also teaches social media topics, and I'd be happy to put you in touch with her if you wanted. This is her current course http://alexisgrant.com/make-your-own-luck/
