Woohoo!!

Soooooo.... This afternoon I got an email from one of the sites that I published my short stories. Turns out I've I had two purchases. Woo!! I only made $5 for te two, but that pretty much pays off the money I spent to create the covers. After I jumped up and down for about five minutes, I decided to check out Amazon and Barnes & Noble. So far I've only got one hit on Amazon, with nothing on B&N (I'm thinking B&N people are prude lol).

I'm hoping that this weekend more people will be buying my stories on all three sites. Maybe someone will even write a good review about them.

Alright, I'm gonna go resume jumping in excitement!!!

Just a Quicky

I've noticed that I'm not very good at this whole keeping a blog thing. But whatever, I can still use it!!

Just an update on where I am with my writing.

I'm still working on my novel. Revising is tedious and it sucks even more because I have to switch everything from third person to first. I'M NEVER WRITING IN THIRD AGAIN!!!

Besides that slow process, I've taking up something a little, well provocative. I've written several short erotica stories, and published them under a pen name (WHICH I will not be giving anyone, even if my life depends on it). I've posted two this week, part of a mini-series. I'm not too sure if I'll write another, but at least I've got the option. Right now I'm in the middle of my third. They're only about five thousand words, so I can pretty much write, edit, format, create a cover, and post in one day. Even though I think the covers are amazing, no one seems interested in buying them, and that's with them on three different sites (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Smashwords). I'm a little depressed to say the least because I thought I would've sold at least ONE!!

I'm hopeful that by next week I'll get some bites, because I really don't wanna have to admit to writing erotica.

So I guess that's it for now. Maybe I'll stop in again in a few months!!! :)
