Marketing and promotions

Lately, I have been researching all types of marketing plans and promotions. The best idea I have found is to follow other authors that are doing well. Follow their marketing strategies and when I do, I see that they are doing nothing! No freebies no discounts, just keep on writing! Something about algorithms and I do not understand, but I am trying to find out! I just do not want to spend too much time on researching something that I may never need to know! Lol! So, in the meantime I am awaiting the rest of my first recordings for the audio of my first book Sweet Melissa: Ignorance Is Not Bliss #sweetmelissa I have absolutely fell in love with audio books! I do not know how I ever lived without them! I have not had the time I need to read and write, but while I am driving I love listening to books. I have had many requests about having my series brought to audio because now a days people do not have the time to sit and read a book. I love it, and I think this is a great marketing strategy on its own! #memoirseries

My Name is Susie and I’m a Comma Addict

Editing a manuscript is like editing your life! Search for the mistakes and fix them! Book One of The Sweet Melissa Memoir Series has been revised! No worries! I’m sure it has plenty of commas stuck in the wrong place! It also has dialogue and a more descriptive value including what? EMOTION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,#Recovery #Adiction #OneDayAtATime If you need to hire an editor/life coach then do it! If you’re stubborn like me and you want to do it alone, then be prepared for the criticism. Go through the pages of your manuscript/life one word at a time. Find an easy flow. Don’t make it complicated with terms you don’t understand and ask for help when you can. There’s one thing I’ve found to be true, and that’s putting comma’s in the right place. I habitually overuse them . I guess they are my “NEW DRUG of CHOICE” and sometimes I follow my own rules of punctuation. If I need a pause or a break, I shove one in! ...

The American Opioid Epidemic and Mental Illness

Someone Like Me-Is there a connection between addiction and mental illness? I say there is! Some people say that addiction is a choice, but I know for a fact that it’s not. Mental illness plays a big part in a persons decision making process and lifestyle choices. I am now in the middle of writing my 7th book and I will explain in detail how my chemically imbalanced mind thinks and reacts. Well, at least how mine did before treatment anyway! Sure, I am no pro and I am not a doctor, but I have a genuine real life experience and a story to tell. I hope that you will open your mind to the possibility, or shall I say the reality, that addiction is indeed a disease and not a choice.

Reinventing My Book Series “Sweet Melissa” with Editing Assistance from AI

AI is Everywhere Artificial Intelligence is everywhere now a days and we might as well utilize it for what it’s worth. I am in the process of reinventing my memoir series and in addition to that, I will be adding a seventh book. After I have finished all of this (I need a steady income) I will be starting my second screenplay and it will be based on my book series. It will be based on true life experiences. My first script “The Mark” is just about in preproduction and I am so excited about that! When time allows, I will be writing the book for my first feature film. This is all so exciting and I am working like crazy! In between all of this, bills and rent still need to be paid. I never ask anyone for anything for free, but I do have an eBay store susieeisus and I offer lots of discounts on a variety of items. Please check out my store. You don’t know how much I would appreciate it. Life is overwhelming sometimes. And sometimes it grabs a hold o...
