  • Author actions to succeed in Publishing With Terry Whalin Questions
    2024/12/24

    Terry Whalin, Dedicated to the Craft of Writing. Terry Whalin is an editor and author of over 60 books and has written for over 50 magazines. Several of Terry’s books have sold over 100,000 copies. Terry and his wife live in Southern California. I've been in book publishing for decades and worked with hundreds of authors. Many authors have unrealistic expectations about what will happen when their book is published. Also, much of the publishing process is outside of an author's control. I wrote 10 Publishing Myths to give authors realistic expectations and encourage them to take practical action steps to make their books successful. With an estimated 600 million blogs, Terry is one of the top 27 content producers with over 1,700 entries in his blog on The Writing Life. As writers, it is important to get our books in front of new people consistently. That’s why in these articles, I encourage you to make new connections on Linkedin and other actions. In this article, I want to give another resource so you can tell others about your book and stories: podcasting.@terry@terrywhalin.com https://terrywhalin.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/terrywhalin https://x.com/terrywhalin https://www.linkedin.com/in/terrywhalin/ #AuthorSuccess#PublishingTips#WritingCommunity#TerryWhalin #PublishingSuccess #TerryWhalin #AuthorJourney #BookPublishingTips #WritingToPublishing #AuthorSuccessSteps #PublishingSecrets #WriterGoals #PathToPublishing #AuthorSupport

  • Asha Nyr's work in RAW, Fantasy, Romance, and Fiction:
    2024/12/12

    Asha Nyr ,Fantasy, Romance, Fiction, the first book in her series of fiction book, "The Mistake And The Lycan King." I did not intend to publish. I went on Inkitt to write for exposure therapy. As a childhood assault survivor, I ended up carrying a lot of trauma within me, and it built up over time. Since my POTS and hEDS flared a handful of years ago, and I needed a spinal patch, my depression worsened a hundredfold. I wrote for the first time a year and a half ago and found relief there. Readers came flooding in, became family and encouraged me to publish. It was shocking but deeply welcomed. That's how I got here. I'm an accidental author. Since losing my job, I'm hoping that publishing will eventually pay my rent, buy me food and pay my medical bills because I have not only fallen in love with storytelling, it's become a source of healing for me. I have eight other books coming and two works in progress now that I'm finally publishing. It's never too late to join my reader, shifter family and me on the road to recovery. All are welcome; it's a safe place. I'm an accidental author. Since losing my job, I hope publishing will eventually pay my rent, buy me food and pay my medical bills. My novels are therapy-turned-product, they are heavy, explicit, but they come from a thoughtful place that yearns for peace. The raw fantasy, the self-exploration, and the intimacy were all for exposure therapy. The beasts kept it at a safe distance. My stories were free.@ lindseyb@anthonymoracommunications.comhttps://www.instagram.com/authorashanyr/ https://www.facebook.com/AshaNyr https://twitter.com/AuthorAshaNyrhttps://www.goodreads.com/authorashanyrhttps://www.inkitt.com/AshaNyr #AshaNyrBooks#AshaNyrWriteshttps://www.instagram.com/authorashanyr/ https://www.facebook.com/AshaNyr https://twitter.com/AuthorAshaNyrhttps://www.goodreads.com/authorashanyrhttps://www.inkitt.com/AshaNyr

  • Pizza Italian History With Erica D Arcangelo
    2024/11/21

    We're here with Erica D'Arcangelo, Author of A Story About Pizza. This historical fiction book is an adaptation of the story of her grandfather who immigrated from Italy to America, working as a coal miner. It follows his lifetime journey of family, food, and amazing pizza. Today we will discuss growing up Italian, culture, and food. Most of all we're going to talk about how pizza became the American dream for so many Italian families that run family-owned and operated pizzerias in America today. After many years away, I suddenly found myself home. My father, at the time, was recovering from heart surgery and struggling to find his place after retiring from his job as an administrator. While working, he also owned and managed our family's pizzeria. It had been open since 1960. Little did I know that my plan to get my father "busy" again would become the inspiration for the book about my family. The story of my grandfather. While working with my father to bring the pizzeria 'back to life' I looked through old photos and listened while he told me the story of our family. How my grandfather worked in the coal mines, how poor he was, and how his dream was to open a pizzeria. This was a place where our family grew. Where celebrated Christmas Eve every year. A place where local people of all ages would come in to eat and be part of the family.@https://astoryaboutpizza.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@AStoryAboutPizza https://www.facebook.com/darcspizza https://www.instagram.com/darcspizza/ https://www.tiktok.com/@darcspizza #ItalianFoodHistory#audienceengagement #PizzaChronicles #EricaDArcangeloExplores#PizzaHeritage#ItalianCultureAndCuisine

  • The Legacy of Mark Connor
    2024/10/29

    He writes fiction, poetry, and journalism. He is the 2022 Boxing inductee to the Mancini's St. Paul Sports Hall of Fame. He attended the University of St. Thomas in Saint Paul, and Regis University in Denver, Colorado, and graduated with a BA in English from the University of Minnesota. He has written and published many articles about Boxing, Irish culture, and people and events related to Irish freedom. He has also published local news and features on business, politics, and current affairs in Minnesota and the U.S. It's About Time (Millions of Copies Sold for Dad) is a saga wrapped around a package of poems, guarded by Angels. With a narrative style that reads like a novel, contains a collection of poetry, and shares an autobiography, Mark Connor guides us through a journey of love, family, and life that is ours as much as his own, peeking at the point of merger of difference and unity. Following him from memory to memory, we feel the eyes upon us, defeat the empire of fear, embrace the kingdom of love, and find ten minutes a day to be grateful. All the while, we celebrate the city of Saint Paul (with a friendly nod to Minneapolis), and experience Irish influence in neighborhood life, rooted in Catholic cohesion, embraced by indigenous America in the medicine wheel. @https://www.facebook.com/141146932597653/ #MarkConnerLegacy#HonoringMarkConner #InspiringLeadership#MarkConnerImpact #LegacyOfFaithAndVision https://boxersandwritersmagazine.com/books/

  • The teacher who writes with Jeremy S Adams
    2024/08/31
    The first thing you need to know about me is that I’m a teacher who writes versus a writer who teaches. My students have always been my inspiration. My books would be very different if not written through the lens of an educator who is deeply worried that our children have become disheartened about a country I love. To me, this does not feel like an abstract problem. A country without patriotism feels like one that will wither, a wandering nation without a soul. I’ve taught at one public high school in Bakersfield, CA for over 25 years. The same school where my dad taught for over 20 years. The school where I met my wife and I graduated from, as did my 4 siblings. Lest you think I’m a guy who simply can’t get another job, the reason I’ve stayed in one place is because my school is located in a region that is an incredibly diverse microcosm of America. It is endlessly changing and thus always new and fascinating. We have brilliant and beautiful diversity at our school. @https://jeremysadamsauthor.com/ #TeacherWriter#EducationAndWriting #JeremySAdams#TeachingInspiresWriting
