Thanks, Sol.

I'll check back in June.

Charles, just highlight and say some thing like raced down the road would be stronger than ran. You're causing yourself grief. You'll be okay. Take a deep breath.

KHippolite,

They really don't get Alain Richter.

Speaking of auto renewal. What is the procedure to make sure you have all the correct billing info and when will the renewal take place? I joined in June 2010. You definitely need new credit card info.

If that's not enough, then go to the comment box and continue. The one thing that I think would be so much easier is if the comments could be seen side by side with the text rather than having to click on the highlighted area--Like you can do when you track changes in Word. Even when reading the remarks to your reviews would be easier without having to click each place to see if the author even made a comment. Ok, I know we're getting silly with all our wants and wishes, but maybe Santa can deliver?????

Well said, Mariana! Nice work, Sol. Thank you.

I had agents asking for complete manuscripts and then taking months to get back with me. I also went the contest route for exposure. My stuff tends to do well with contests that look for more classical style of writing. But after many queries, I decided to go indie. I can't quit my day job--YET. But I sell some books either in print or for Kindle every month and get a royalty check every month. I just got word that I'm doing quite well in Denmark. And I've had nothing but 4 & 5-star reviews. I also have friends who are trying to traditional way. Hey! It's become commonplace for even big publishing houses to make the writer do much of their own promotion. And I'd rather go indie than with a vanity press that will most likely go under in a year or so. My one piece of advice to indie authors--GET A PROFESSIONAL EDITOR TO READ YOUR WORK FIRST. Even then and even in big-house published pieces, you'll find mistakes. And if you're like me, a non-formula writer, indie is the route. Also, the wave of the future is electronic, though I still love the feel and smell of paper. Another thing to keep in mind is that big publishers give big distributors the buy-back option. Indie and small publisher don't offer that. You can't believe the number of books by big name authors I sent back when I worked retail (back in the dark ages). Those books look like sales, but really aren't. And indies, beware big distributors. I have a fellow author near me and she has yet to collect her royalties after five years from B & N. The small bookstores around here are very indie friendly.

Janet, that romance could be an older couple who both have gardens in their backyards and they begin talking to each other over the fence.
