Reflections, Ponderings, Giveaways, and Announcements

“This above all: to thine own self be true, 
And it must follow, as the night the day, 
Thou canst not then be false to any man.”

~William Shakespeare

     Hi everyone!  I have been doing some reflecting and pondering lately.  Maybe it is because I have been answering interview questions for a few people who will be interviewing me on their blogs.  More than likely, it is just the way I am.  I like to reflect and ponder.
     I have thought about how I have grown as a writer, illustrator, formatter, marketer, and person from when I first started a little over a year ago.  (Well, I started as a person a little longer ago than that.)
     I have met quite a few kind people along the way who have been willing to help me, encourage me, advise me, promote me, etc.  We have shared, chatted, brainstormed, and helped each other.  I have truly built friendships along the way.
     In the beginning I was a beginner in all of it.  Today, I still consider myself a beginner as I am still fairly new to the field.  Yet, I am feeling more confident in the field and more experienced.  Maybe, I could even consider myself in the intermediate level!
    I have made quite a few changes along the way.  Recently, I changed the cover to one of my books, "Clarinda Cloud," to make it more eye catching.  I didn't think of that as much in the beginning.  Yet, the importance of cover designs means more to me now and my illustrating skills have improved.
     In the beginning, I also "liked" pages and shared things by other authors without considering my target audience, the family friendliness of my sites, or the quality of the things I was liking and sharing in hopes that other authors would return the favor.  Yet, I have decided to be more discriminate in what I share or like.  I want to "know" more about the things I like or share, so I can really stand behind them.  I try not to say anything I don't mean or know about a book or author any more.  
     I still hope to be able to share, like, and promote books and authors.  There are many wonderful books and authors out there.  I just want to make sure that I am being honest with my shares, likes, and promotions.  And, just because I don't recommend a book, it may not be that it is a great story.  It may be that it has some errors in it.  Sometimes if there errors were fixed, I would happily give a glowing review!
     I am currently thinking of ways I could help encourage quality work in 2014 and beyond.  I have thought about possibly offering a proofreading service for children's/MG/YA authors.  If I don't do it myself, I have thought about creating a network and offering referrals to other wonderful people who do author friendly services such as editing, proofreading, formatting, PR work, illustrating, cover creations, etc. I have also thought about creating a "write and publish your own children's book" class or mentoring program.  (Yes, I am only at the intermediate level with this, however I am an experienced educator.  And, often times people will choose people just a little ahead of them in the progress to support them, so that they feel the supporter "knows how they feel and what they are going through" because he or she was there not long ago.) 
     Research and considerations are in progress for these things now.  I would like to get your feedback and ideas.  Also, if you would be interested in joining the network, please feel free to contact me.

Notes and Announcements

*Please check out the latest interview of me.  It is by Fiona McVie and she did a wonderful job!  Thank you, Fiona!
*Along with all of this reflecting and pondering, I have been thinking about how I could make my sites better.  I would like your help there as well.  For mainly that reason, I am offering a giveaway contest on my blogs.  For more information and a chance to enter, please follow the links the posts on the following sites.  I am hoping this chance for you to win a copy of "Clarinda Cloud" will be a win/win for both of us.
~DUO Education Learning Blog
~Clarinda Cloud's Feeling Blog
~What is New with Jodi Desautels?
Good luck!
*I am having a giveaway for my ebooks on Kindle on December 17th and 18th.  That means you will be able to get the Kindle edition of "Clarinda Cloud" and "Johnny's Adventure Makes Reading Fun" will be free on those days. Taking advantage of free giveaways on Kindle is a great way to decide if you want to buy the softcover, give the author a review on the book, or have it for trips and in the car.  (I don't particularly like the idea of ebooks for children, but they do have their uses.)
*Also, I am going to be co-hosting (with Virginia Wright) the "2nd Annual Author Christmas Giveaway" event on Facebook on December 17th.  You are all invited!  It is a great way to "mingle" with authors online, ask questions, get answers, play games, win books, etc.  Many authors are expected to show up.

Author Interview with Angie Harris about her Book:  "Momma's Little Helpers", Announcements, Clarinda Cloud Contest, and Shout Outs

12/4/2013

3 Comments

     Hello everyone!  Today I am interviewing a fellow Vermonter!  Yay for us Vermonters!  LOL!  Okay... please welcome fellow Vermonter and fellow author/illustrator, Angie Harris.


Angie, please tell us about yourself.
a.    I wear many hats on any given day…I am a wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, sister, daughter, friend, confidant, and a counselor. During the day, I am an IT tech and facilitator at a high school, along with many other titles and descriptions… And by night, I am a friend to all who need me. Somewhere in the middle of all of this, I find time to write and indulge my inner child—who can be a bit bratty at times. Wink… wink. ;)

What is the title of your book?
a.  Momma’s Little Helpers    

Please tell us a little about your book.
a.    Momma’s Little Helpers is a wonderful little story about five young girls who embark upon some great adventures to rally support for their sick mother.

What inspired you to write this book?
a.    Honestly, this book was never meant to be written as a story which I intended to share…It was meant to inspire my mother as she was struggling to overcome lung cancer.

Which of your characters is your favorite and why?
a.    That would have to be Misty…her character has some great scenes. And because these characters are all representative of my sisters and me, I was able to easily imagine Misty and how she would react within the story. For her small size, she was brave and courageous and fought a great battle with a leprechaun. But truthfully, Misty (my sister) remains a child at heart and always will. I made her parts within the story so colorful because I knew how hard she would laugh when I read it to her—and boy did she!

What is your hope for your book?
a.   Only that it keeps doing as well as it has up to this point. It has been received very well and has surpassed any expectations that I had for it. Just a few short weeks ago, Momma’s Little Helpers was bestowed the honor of receiving a B.R.A.G. (Book Reader Appreciation Group) Medallion! What a wonderful honor and completely unexpected. A friend had submitted the book for review and it passed all their judging panels and was awarded the Medallion.

What genre do you write?
a.    I like to challenge myself and try to write in as many different genres as possible. Currently, I have written children’s books and YA books within the fantasy category, but have mixed some of them with science fiction and love writing poetry.

How long have you been writing?
a.  Since I could hold a pencil…I know…cliché…but also true. I have always been a bit of a story teller and always will be. It is part of my nature, part of who I am and how I express myself. Sometimes I share what I write, and sometimes I don’t. I write for pleasure and sometimes as a means of therapy. 

What is your favorite way to promote yourself and your book?
a.    I would have to say that would be doing book readings. While it can seem a bit intimidating at first, I have always had my most rewarding experiences reading and discussing the books I have written.

What is your favorite place to market your book?
a.    Twitter

Do you have other books?  (Feel free to list them.)
a.    Yes. I have written two novels in my YA fantasy series The Gates of the Realm, The Realm and Vanya’s Quest. I have also written two other children’s books for another series called Monster Feet. Monster Feet was actually self-published and gained some decent attention in a very short time. About three months after its publication, it was contracted by a publishing house. Sue’s Deep Sea Adventure is the second book in that series and has not yet been released.


Is there a message, a lesson, or a moral to your story?  If so, would you like to share it?
a.  There are many messages hidden within the pages of Momma’s Little Helpers. The girls exhibit teamwork, compassion, support of a loved one during times of need, selflessness and even courage. As the pages turn these five girls deliver many different messages to their audience.

Do you make your own covers?
a.    So far, I have for all of them except for The Realm.


Do you have a blog or website?
a.    Yes. http://www.angieharris.weebly.com

Are you a morning person or a night person?
a.    Morning.


     Ugh... a morning person.  Not me.  I am more of a night owl.  But... it must work for Angie, because I know her and her writing.  I like her books!  And, I am so happy for her!  Thank you for sharing, Angie!
     Having a BRAG medallion is a wonderful honor for an indie author.  If you are an indie author and want to know more about the BRAG medallion, you can go to their website at www.bragmedallion.com.

You can also find "Momma's Little Helpers" on Amazon.com.


A New Cover and a New Contest

Picture
     Wonderful news!  "Clarinda Cloud" is getting a new cover!  What do you think? I got to thinking that my original cover may not be eye catching enough.  I hope to get it changed this week. It will be down for a day or two during the transition.  But... after...it will be the same great book.... just with an even better cover!
     There is also a new "Clarinda Cloud" contest...the last one of the year!  You can have a chance to win a free copy by just answering two questions...you can pick from the questions on this site and my other blogs: 

Clarinda Cloud's Feelings Blog 
DUO Education Learning Blog


Here are your questions:


1.  Please explore the site.  What would you like to see offered for readers or authors on this site?
2.  What kinds of books and on what topics would you like to see more of for children?  Why?


     A winner will be chosen from the people who answered at least two questions at the end of the month or beginning of next year.  If nobody answers at least two questions, I will donate a book to someone or some place.  If you win but would prefer a book to be given elsewhere, please let me know.  (U.S. addresses only at this time, please.)  Thank you.  Good luck!

Announcements and Shout Outs

*I am now giving shout outs and promoting other authors more than I have in the past.  I try not to give the impression that I know more about a book or author that I really do.  If I know about an author or book, I try to say so and give a more specific shout out.  If I don't... I try to make it fairly noncommittal!  But... I am happy to help other authors.  As all my sites are family friendly, I do not promote R-rated or X-rated.  If you are an author, please feel free to contact me.  There will be more information on this to come, so please stay tuned!


Here are the shout outs for today:
*Author Staci Stallings gave me this shout out to post... "Wonderful story of love, faith & forgiveness" DEEP IN THE HEART by Staci Stallingshttp://www.amazon.com/Deep-Heart-Staci.../dp/B005LVVIIG
*Children's author/illustrator Karen Deming also wanted a shout out. I have seen some of her illustrations.  Nice work!  You are see her site here.
*I would also like to give a shout out for author Bill Hillman.  (Bill's work history includes much more than being an author.)  He is turning his book into a movie.  "Quigley's Christmas Adventure" is now in the funding stage.... you can find out more here.  (I am so excited about this, because Clarinda Cloud will be making an appearance in this movie.)

Kelly Hagen's Interview of me for "Clarinda Cloud," Book Giveaway, Shout out about Author Friends

     Hi everyone!  I have been interviewed lately on a friend's blog.  I would like to thank, Kelly Hagen for the lovely interview.  And, hope that you all will go to her site and check it out.   at Author Kelly Hagen.  Kelly did a wonderful job with the interview.
     Networking is very important for authors, especially Indie Authors, like myself.  Sometimes it is difficult work and sometimes it is a blast.  You meet all kinds of nice people.  I enjoy meeting people.
     Author Rodica Iova has also been kind enough to post my books on her pages.  Here is the link to "Down the Chimney Penguin Joe'" Facebook page.  (That is the title of one of her lovely books.)  There she has the "Clarinda Cloud Activity Book" featured.  And...check out the illustration of her penguins!  They are so cute!  They make me want to read her book!  Thank you for posting, Rodica.
     I have another friend who just got a new logo for her author page, www.thecroak500.com.  Check it out!  Rhonda Patton is also a children's author.  She has many more books out than I do.  And, she loves to market and promote!  She is a great resource for all authors.
     And, I have another friend who is having a "Release Party" this weekend.  If you are near Wakefield, MA on Saturday afternoon... it should be a blast!  I hope you will stop by!  Here is the link for the Release Party Event for more information.  And, what book is she celebrating?  Why, "Journey to Jazzland" of course!  Great book for music lovers and especially music teachers!  Check out her cool site!  I wish I were closer to Wakefield, so I could go to the party this weekend.

     Authors also will often run giveaways.  I am no different! I am giving away a copy of the "Clarinda Cloud Activity Book."
     I am trying to make it fun by placing a picture of the cover in another image and having people guess where it may be.  Do you know where this waterfall is?  If you do, please comment the answer below.  If you do not, please comment with the name of an elementary school, library, daycare, or children's counselor where you think I should donate the book if nobody guesses the correct answer.  (Please, only U.S. addresses at this time.)  Go ahead and comment!  Make this a fun contest!  Thank you!

My Formatting Trick

10/16/2013

0 Comments

 
PictureHere is a page from "Clarinda Cloud" where I used this formatting technique.
     Hi.  How are you?  I have decided that I would write about that dreaded task about which many Indie authors worry between the time of finishing a manuscript and getting it published.  You guessed it.... FORMATTING!
     Formatting is something that many authors dread. It can be difficult.  Yet, it usually goes fairly smoothly for me and some people have even said that I should get into formatting for other authors.
     My trick to formatting is to know the dimensions of the finished book BEFORE I even start writing and to plan accordingly.  So far, I have only published children's books.  Another trick to formatting children's books is to turn each page into a jpeg.  Let me explain my procedure.
     First, I type my manuscript in my Word document. Then, I separate the text into pages.  To illustrate, I set up the pages to the correct dimensions for the book before I start illustrating.  I like to add my text either onto the illustrations themselves or onto a blank page in Photoshop set to the correct dimensions.  Finally, I open a new Word document and set it to the correct dimensions with all the margins set to zero.  And... I INSERT each jpeg into the Word document in the correct order.  (Don't forget to create pages like title page, copyright page, etc. and insert those pages as jpegs as well.)  At the end, I simply change the Word document into a PDF and upload it to Create Space.  Formatting it this way allows me to use the same format for both the paperback book and the ebook.  
     So authors, bottom line... to make things much easier on your illustrators and formatters (whether they are you or someone else), know the dimensions of your book before you even start writing or illustrating and plan accordingly.  You will be happy, your illustrator will be happy, and your formatter will be happy!

Picture
     Just a reminder:  There is still time to when a free copy of "Clarinda Cloud."  I am looking for someone to name the place where this photo was taken.  Do you know where it is?  Do you know "Where in the world is Clarinda Cloud?"       For this picture... a state or country is too broad of an answer.  I will give a hint... it is in my home state.  However... I am looking for a town/city or the specific place where this is located.
     Don't know where it is?  That is fine, please comment anyway.  In the comment, put the name of an elementary school, daycare, library, or children's psychologist/counselor where I should send the book if nobody guesses.  Please... only US addresses at this time.  Thank you!  Good luck!  


Note: Winners are determined from this site and my education site, DUO Education, at www.DUOEducation.com.

After Labor Day Giveaway

     Hi everyone!  I am doing an "After Labor Day Giveaway!"  I am hoping to catch the back to school people as well as the end of summer crowd.  Both "Johnny's Adventure Makes Reading Fun" and "Clarinda Cloud" will be free on September 3rd and 4th on Kindle.
     This is a promotion to try to get bring awareness to me as an author and to my books.  As a relatively new author, my name is not widely known.  Yet, I seek to change that.
     Authors are in a unique profession where after long, hard work of writing, editing, formatting, promoting, marketing; that products are often given away for free or greatly reduced, just to gain awareness.  It doesn't seem fair.  Yet, that seems to be an industry norm.
     Please, if you like a book... mine or anyone else's...tell a friend.  Help spread the word.  Maybe write a note to the author.  Write a review.  Share the author's posts about their work.  Talk to your local library and book store about carrying the book.  Talk to schools, libraries, and book stores about author visits.
     Reading is important!  I hope you enjoy my books!  Thank you!
Picture
     Here is an update since I started writing this post yesterday.  This giveaway is my most successful yet.  I also got a kind review by a few people.  I would like to feature this one by author Lorieen D. Henry:5.0 out of 5 stars Identifying Feelings September 3, 2013
By Author Lorieen D. Henry
Format:Kindle Edition
Great Book! My daughter really enjoyed the book. I appreciated the way the author helped to address feelings. I'd recommend this book for 2-6 year olds.




Thank you, Lorieen!  Please press here to visit her site!  (I like to reward people who help me!)  Thank you again!

Illustrating Practice

8/21/2013

4 Comments

 
Picture
     Hi.  I hope everyone is well!  I have been trying to practice my illustrating skills.  I have been doing various tasks just to practice; anything from making posters  like the one pictured to drawing objects or creating backgrounds.  
     When I first started writing, years ago, I didn't have a clue as to everything that was involved in writing.  However, in my defense, things have changed quite a bit since then.  
     The up and coming movement in writing seems to be indie authoring.  So, for a children's author, such as myself, it means many more things fall on the author to get accomplished for before publication takes place.  Indie authors make sure that their books are illustrated, their covers are created, and their manuscripts are edited and formatted.
     That is one of the reasons I have been practicing. I want to be able to illustrate more of my stories.  I also hope to use some of my illustrations for some of my educational adventures!

Author Blog Hop for Children's Authors, MG Authors, and YA Authors

7/17/2013

4 Comments

     Hi everyone.  I have been asked and tagged to participate in a blog hop for children's authors, MG authors, and YA authors.  I have been tagged by children's author and illustrator Virginia Wright.  In order to participate, I answer some interview questions and tag three other authors.  You can find Virginia's blog and answers at http://virginiawright.com/blog/.


Here are the interview questions and my answers:


1. What are you working on right now?
     I seem to have "many pots in the fire" right now.  I just had my first author visit at a local library, which I will post about at another time.  So, that has kept me busy.  I am also looking for other libraries and for bookstores who would like an author visit from me.  I have been working on my education site, DUO Education, at www.DUOEducation.com.  I also have other children's books to illustrate and some ideas to write more.  On top of all that, I am trying something new and working on a YA novel.  I have been busy and excited!


2.  How does it differ from other works in it's genre?
     The YA novel I am working on is about a girl who gets emotionally abused from her parents.  I believe it is an important subject as people do not usually take it as seriously as other forms of abuse, because there are often no outward lying scars.  I haven't seen any books like this out.


3.  Why do you write what you do?
     I write, because I enjoy it!  I write the "things I write" because, I either find them to be educational or relatable in some way...as well as enjoyable or interesting.  Education is another one of my passions, so some of my books will have an educational component.  Others, are things that are relatable, which I feel is very important in a book.

4.  How does your writing process work?
     I guess I do not have a specific writing process.  I write when I have an idea or feel like writing.  I illustrate as I build skills and feel like illustrating...or have something to illustrate.  I try to market, network, promote, and learn new strategies always!  It is difficult sometimes to find a healthy balance of all that writers do.  But.... I am learning and working on it!


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~


     I would like to thank Virginia for tagging me and thank all of you for stopping by.  Please stop by her blog, the blogs of the people I tag (Lisa Cole Orchard, Laura Wintczak Eckroat, and Wendy Nystrom), and the blog of other people in the hop.  (The people I have tagged will post theirs next week.)  Please show your support by leaving a comment as you hop from site to site!  Thank you.
     You can find the websites of the people I have tagged by either pressing their names above or by going to the following websites:
*Lisa Cole Orchard's site: lisaorchard.wordpress.com
*Laura Wintczak Eckroat's site: http://lauraeckroat.blogspot.com
*Wendy's site: http://wendysbookcase.com/

*Notice:  I am always interested in giving new and talented artists a chance to illustrate one of my books for their portfolio.  If you are interested, please contact me.  I cannot pay anything at this moment, but will do what I can to promote your work and help get you exposure.
