I got sidetracked by blogging, and I think I let it happen on purpose. Today I uploaded my first book (In Times Passed) to Smashwords. It was one of the most exciting things I have ever done. Researching blogging let me settle into the fact that my book was now available. I have been redrafting it for the last three months with a deadline date I set for August. I beat that deadline by one day.
I searched for where to publish my ebook, and though I considered B&N and Kindle at Amazon, when I tripped over a reference to Smashwords and checked it out, I felt that I had arrived home. Each step was scary but easy, as Mark Coker at Smashwords makes it easy. When I downloaded my book onto my iPhone and flipped through the pages….euphoria. I ran and showed my daughter, flipping the title page into view, then the table of contents and a few pages of the first chapter. She said I looked scary and a little weird. I think I am going to go see if I still look weird to her.
