it is accomplished

As of right now, I’m a published author. And as a published author, that means I’m a professional writer. So I’m one of the cool kids now.

Don’t worry tho. Maybe one day you’ll be cool like me (probably not though).

Anyways, finally got that shitty ass book The Detective James Series: Vol. I submitted to Amazon, so it might be available to purchase (in both Kindle and paperback form) in the next few days.

I don’t recommend publishing a book. Even self-publishing is a pain in the ass. It’s a lot of formatting and rewriting and blah blah blah. It really sucks the fun out of it. So if you have a manuscript that no publisher will pick up and you’re thinking about self-publishing, do yourself a favor: throw it in the trash and forget all about it.

OR

Just fork over a couple of grand and let someone else do it for you.

You’re welcome. And be sure to pick up your copy of The Detective James Series: Vol. I on Amazon 😀

Editing is bullshit

If I ever write another book, I’m letting…no, MAKING…someone else rewrite and edit it. Don’t ever let anyone tell you that the “real writing” is done in the 2nd and 3rd drafts.

That’s why it’s important to get everything right the first time. I have always had perfect first drafts. But then again I’m probably the second coming of Dean Koontz.

But you though, you probably need to write a 2nd and 3rd draft. Not me. That shit’s for the birds.
