I’ve gotten a ton of people asking me what I’m up to now that Grim Ambition has been released and what an author does to promote their work, so I figured, why not post about it? 😀 Here’s everything I’ve been working on in the last month!

• Radio and podcast interviews
• Recording Grim Inception for Audible
• Finding people in the area to play the characters at my book release party
• Making the Grim costume for the book release party
• Teaching the characters multiple choreographed surprises for the book release party in addition to ordering supplies and merch for it (like posters, costumes, etc)
• Working on finding more online promotion
• Setting up book signings and discussions at local venues here in town
• Working with betas who are reading through book two right now before it goes to the editor in May
• Attending conventions to sell books and speak on author panels
• Work with my artist to create book two character portraits
• Interviewing and hiring artists for the upcoming graphic novel
• Trying to find someone who will help me figure out the rules for the RPG I want to create
• Researching publishing companies for said graphic novels
• Making and getting business cards
• Figuring out travel plans and helpers in other cities where I am attending the cons
• Maintaining my blog and daily online presence
• Ensuring none of the above fails!)

Not sure if I’m missing something or not, but more will add to the list as the months go on, such as

• editing and revising book two
• working on the script for the graphic novel to send to the artist
• do a photo shoot
• film a few music videos
• record four people for Grim Ambition’s Audible
• finishing book three
• writing two more short stories in between the books

So yeah! It’s been a busy month! All this in addition to working TWO jobs haha!

Also, if I seem neurotic when something goes wrong or can’t make plans for a while, well, this is why. 😛 But I’m not complaining at all; it’s been an amazing journey, and I’m tackling everything with as much positivity as I can. I couldn’t do it without the love and support of my fans, friends, and family, and I’m forever grateful for each and every one of them.
