Several months ago, I took a chance on Mark Dawson's Self Publishing 101 Course. I took the time to gather in all my stats up until that time. Like … how many books I had published. Bank balances. Followers on Instagram. Email newsletter subscribers. All that...

A couple days ago, I posted that I am living back in the dark tunnel of anger. Yeah, back to prison. I hate admitting that, but I can feel it in my gut and it feels nasty. Yes, the word gut-wrenching comes to mind. The third book in The Great Escapee Series, Restored,...
