2012: Year of the Reader

2012 is nearly done and so it’s time to look back and reflect on what kind of year I had professionally. There were ups and downs and even a couple of lateral movements, but for the most part I’d call it a very successful year for me as an author. And who added to that success? My readers of course. I met quite a few new ones online and even a couple in person. I found new ways to interact with readers and put myself out there a little more. I thoroughly enjoyed it all and consider 2012 the Year of the Reader.


So, to celebrate and thank my fabulous readers for all I accomplished in 2012 (because without you what was the point?) I’m going to give away a tote bag of goodies.

All you have to do to enter is tell me which of my books you’ve enjoyed the most and why. Now, no cheating. Don’t go reading a review and taking from someone else’s opinion. It doesn’t have to be explicit detail, just enough so I know what scene or chapter in which book you’re talking about. Then add your email addy to your comment and you’re entered.

To sum up, I sold over 945 ebooks and at least 33 print books (not all the year’s numbers are in yet) in 2012. I attended one writer’s conference and one reader’s conference. I had three new releases and finished writing nine books. Overall a very successful year. However, I do hope to make 2013 even better. I already have one release planned with more certainly in the works.



So THANK YOU readers!! I appreciate each and every one of you. Take your time considering your comment below. I won’t draw a winner until January 6, 2013.
