The MOST FUN part about releasing a new book cover for an already established book is finding all the nooks and crannies around my websites and the internet to update that cover.

The new cover may take time to propagate across the internet but should be solidly in place within 72 hours (or so I'm told.) Meanwhile, I promised you a reveal today and you shall have it. Ta-Da!

After ten years, The Flight To Brassbright has been given a facelift! The old cover was a bit polarizing: people either loved it or hated it. (more)

Posted this 5 days ago, and absolutely no one has responded, anywhere. I'm not having a great week as it is and this isn't helping. I'll cross the PDF handout project off my to-do list. Going to spend the day not being an author and indulging in self care. Be well, all! Take care of yourself, too!

I want to compile the ultimate list of actions that readers can take to help indie writers, and turn it into a PDF handout sheet. I know some actions cost money but there's a lot that can be done at no cost. Please comment with your suggestions. Reposting this would be lovely, too. Thanks! #Writers

As a fan of irreverent historical fiction, I enjoyed "My Imaginary Mary" immensely. Read my review and leave a comment! #BookReview #readerscommunity #readingcommunity #books www.ceejaywriter.com/book-review-...

Went to the library to pick up my next book club pick, and then I saw this. Love at first sight. So I came home with two books checked out and I think my TBR list is about to explode.
