So Frustrating

So I released another book today. Yah me! I never realized just how hard all of this was going to be. I don't know why I decided to start my publishing company now when I am in the middle of a brand new job, trying to manage my freelance business AND still working on my graduate degree. I decided to go to summer school so that quite possibly I would be able to graduate next spring. *cross fingers* But trying to manage all of this is taking a toll on my life. I am mentally and physically wiped out. I cross two things off my to-do list only to add five more.

I know I have a lot going on. I have to think about what I want to do most and go from there I guess because I can't continue the way I am going.

I need to launch a marketing and social media campaign for my books and my publishing company. That is extremely important. The sales arent there the way the should be.

My family is not suffering so that is not an issue. I stop to spend time with them.

But I am suffering and my sales/businesses area.

I need to transform myself back into a social media rockstar.

I am still slogging through drafts on my computer that I know I need to finish.  So much has happened in life in the last few years, and sometimes I wonder if I should even finish them. But, I know I need to. It has to be done.

Happy to Report: She Writes Things - Anthology Update

  I tell you what.... time sure has flown by since my last post. I don't even know how that happened. But I do know the anthology isn't ready yet.  I have removed all of the separate works (books) from the retailer's sites. I had to wait a period for all of those to be removed and am happy to report that they are all gone.  That was important because if I were to have those lingering and tried to upload the anthology, the retailers, Amazon especially, would ping me for duplicate and/or plagiarized content, and it would turn into this giant headache. While I have all of my documents in Word and saved to an external hard drive and on the cloud, I put them all into one large Google Doc. Easy for me to edit and work on using whatever device I wanted.  Well, with a document that long, my s pell checker and Grammarly were playing very ugly with each other, and it was slowing down the typing and editing process, causing a large amount of frustration.  I then decided to...
