Welcome friends to another amazing Wednesday! I'm so blessed to have an abundant amount of friends who are being published like crazy! Because of this I have three awesome, awesome people who are doing cover reveals on two books. How cool is that?? I'm really, really excited for both books so I hope you'll read about both. In fact, I wrote a cute thing about sisters below (my sister in particular) so hang tight for that. Without further ado, behold the awesome - I love this cover so much!! Angie, you're amazing!

Hey guys! Welcome to another beautiful Monday! It's been seventy degrees for the past couple of days in Texas and I've been loving it. So today I wanted to talk about setting up a TOC for your Kindle ebook. It's fairly simple. It takes a bit of time, but worth it when it comes to self-publishing. I only know how to do this in Microsoft word, so if you use another platform I can't help you. Step 1: Highlight the first section you want in TOC . (i.e. Title page, or the first chapter.) Step 2: Whatever's highlighted should be changed to a heading. This can be found on the 'home' tab in word. Step 3: Adjust the formatting. Once you click that heading button it's going to change the font, size, and everything, so make sure you change it back to how you want it. Step 4: Repeat. You'll want to do this with all the chapter headings until you've selected them all. If you have sub headings, you can also highlight them and choose he...

It's been so fun seeing everyone's goals! I've been saving mine for IWSG, becasue it probably the thing I'm most insecure about. Today's IWSG is hosted, as always, by the amazing Alex J. Cavanaugh ! Give him a round of applause folks. So I decided today that it would best to put ALL of my goals for 2014. Not just writing related ones, but there will be plenty of writing ones too :) Goals for me: 1. Try everyday not to binge eat. This isn't just about losing weight, I seriously have an issue. I just want to eat healthy and feel good. 2. Don't be afraid to try new things. I've been working at living this for a long time, but I'm still a scaredy pants when it comes to new stuff. I did move to a new state though, so that was a huge win! But that's the end of new things :) 3. Focus on my religion. This is also an ongoing goal for the rest of my life. It's not enough to say I believe in God. I sincerely and truly want to live my ...

Yep, I said it. And with good reason. I was hesitant to switch too, but it was worth it! Here's the thing, Google wants people to use Google + so they're making it harder to use old blogger methods. Honestly though, I don't mind. Change is a good thing. What I do mind is that even though I'm enjoying using Google + not everyone wants to make the switch. It's so much harder for me to find blogs this way. I'm not saying you should switch for that reason alone, but it doesn't hurt visibility. Anyway, here's the top three reasons to change your Blogger blog to Google + 1. Visibility - I know I said this above, but there's more to it. Google + pages are ranked higher than other social media outlets. If you switch over, you can have your posts automatically publish to your + homepage and therefore draw more readers to your blog. Plus, bloggers who use Google + go there often to visit other blogs. That makes the chances of your post being seen mo...

Hey everyone! Happy New Year!! It seems like a lot of people are getting back into the swing of blogging, and I missed you all! So... what did you do to ring in the New Year? I watched a movie and went to bed at 11:45. That's how exciting my life is. Anyone have good news? Books finished, exciting ideas, agent deals?

Congrats Donna!! Look at all the pretty she's getting -- Hope everyone is having a fantastic 2014 :)
