I've published two more short stories from Contemplations of Dinner as singles. Here are the covers for A Town Full of Holes and The Barn.
I will be releasing a brand new short titled The Promotion just as soon as the cover comes back.
In other news, I made the jump from hobbyist to professional. No, my writing has not yielded enough sales to allow me to quit the dreaded day job. But I did add writing as a profession on my taxes. The past couple of years has been a loss (hey, what start up company doesn't struggle in the beginning?) but things are looking up. February has been my best month ever, and I'm convinced that as I add more titles I will eventually be in the black.
I've also started my own publishing house (sort of) called Gemini Gremlin Ink. I'm not publishing other authors at this time. It seems strange, I know, but the reason is that it looks more professional to have a publishing company listed instead of just my name. I have watched other authors do this, and I thought I'd give it a try. If you want to be professional, then you better act like a professional.
I'm hoping that the upward trend in sales continues into March. I'm also waiting to hear some news, but I have a couple of weeks until I know if it's good or bad.
And Lord knows I hate waiting.
