Indie Bound!!

Hello All,

I have been a writer all my life, through jounalizing, technical writing, short and full length novels.  I have been on the merry-go-round of "querying", participating in "on-line pitches" and I have found myself not hearing that traditional publishing music anymore and dizzy from the ride. 

I am self-publishing "The Queen's Blood Vendetta" . 

Okay, I said it, I'm doing it.

Self-publishing is an incredible amount of work and not for the weak at heart.  First getting the book written, edited and polished is a daunting process.  I will format the book for Kindle, Nook, Kobo and any other e-reader platform that I deem necessary.  I will publish the paperback book on Amazon. 

I am in the process of designing the book cover.  I am hoping that I will not obsess too much longer on the art, colors, shading, title placement, author's name placement etc.  I want my love/hate relationship with Photoshop to become more love than hate.

This blog is the beginning of a long list of marketing ideas that I will put into place over the course of my writing career for each book I publish, so please bear with me as I continue to add to this blog in getting it where it needs to be. 

Oh, yes in the midst of all this I am in the process of writing the next book in this series.   


I'm excited and yet terrified,
M.Rene
