Coffee Talk: Getting Out, Upcoming News, and The Box Update

Good morning. Do you have your coffee? I sure do! Let's get started shall we?

For Summer being upon us, the weather hasn't been gawd-awful, thankfully, so getting outside hasn't been such a task. I've been getting out to my favorite spots, although I've avoided going into the woods because of mosquitoes. Some of my favorite outings lately:

* Getting out to Hitchcock Nature Center on a warm, but breezy Tuesday. There's an observation tower there that, because of my fear of heights, I've never climbed in the decade I've been hiking there. Well, my fear of heights seemed to lessen after our vacation to Arkansas, so I climbed it for the first time ever. It was a small thing, but a big victory for me nonetheless.

* We took a pleasant evening stroll at the OPPD Arboretum. It was nice outside that evening, and we really just had a good time enjoying each other's company.

* For Father's Day, we took a fun Iowa Mountains Adventure. We had a wonderful time and my husband was so happy. We did some new and old things, and it was a blast. I'll be posting about this day soon, including some fantastic photos I took.

I have some exciting changes coming up on the horizon. It's time for me to ramp things up and move forward more in The Write Life. Every Indie author reaches a point in their writing career when they realize they have to start thinking bigger -- in addition to putting out better content --  if they want to reach the next level with their work. That's where I'm at.

 I've divulged some of these changes to my Newsletter subscribers. If you still haven't subscribed, you can do so at any time on my home page at the top of the right-hand column. It's quick, it's easy, and I'm sending out short & sweet newsletters once a week. What have you got to lose? It's right up there...sign up today!

My one bit of news that I can share with you now is this: I've started researching and writing my next book! I'm really excited about this one, as I have been with each book before it. Not only has my work improved, but my stories have as well. I have a good feeling about this one, and in a few months or so, I'll show you the cover and give you a teaser.

The Box is doing well, in Indie author terms, and that puts a smile on my face. It's sold a decent amount of copies, and it's gotten two reviews: one bad and one good. It's a win-win for me, even if it's not moving thousands of copies a day. *laugh* I've been doing this long enough now to learn to be patient and not expect a ton. Still, like I mentioned, I have some big changes coming up, so I'm ready to start moving forward more aggressively.

Well, that's all for Coffee Talk today. Have a great day!
