I listen to several podcasts about creative writing and the indie author industry. Mostly I listen to podcasts to keep me motivated. What podcasts do you like?

From the article: Noise in a library is not disruption; it is evidence of engagement.

Looks great.

I don’t think so.

Apparently I need to learn more about BookBub and KDP ads after spending too much money with few sales. How are authors so successful?

From my new book β€œAn Alien View of Science Fiction Conventions.”

At their first sci-fi con on another planet, Alice and Corey went to the masquerade party dressed as themselves. Everyone was impressed at how human they looked.

The promoters held their science fiction convention near a desert town in July. Corey hated the heat. He attended hoping to find an alien. He had questions for them.

I’m both. When I get stuck on one, I use the other.

I’m glad when fall comes. Then I’m happy when winter is here. I enjoy the spring coming, but I’m glad when summer is here until it makes me anxious for the fall to begin.

At least some good came from his death and the orchestra came back. Good story.

Great start with music and trains.

The Warmth is a great name for a bakery. I wish I had a bakery nearby growing up. Good ending.

I wouldn’t use alien tech. I’d probably zap myself. How about you?

Corey said, β€œ I guess humans aren’t enjoying alien technology. They could use it to invade a planet as hostile aliens.

I’m finished editing my novel when it has become a story I would enjoy reading as a reader.

Aliens on earth blend in as odd looking strangers who dress differently.

None. I’m patient with a budget.

Great story. Years ago I worked in D.C. and enjoyed riding the metro. But not like Josh.

I enjoy stories where I don’t know the ending, but I know it’ll be a happy one.

Debates at an alien sci-fi con: are ghosts afraid of people who are dying and is there a need for reincarnation in dystopian futures?

Comfortable chair, hot tea with honey, and pleasant music.

My library is a closet in my writing space. It is the only disorganized place where I write. I like going there to discover books I haven’t read yet. Sometimes my writing is like that.

Many prologues I’ve read should be chapter one.

I enjoyed Mr. Bean. He was funny.
