Void Chronicles and Other News

I did a quick run through of the first two books in the Void Chronicles, in anticipation of the new covers and also to immerse myself in the world before editing book three and finishing it off. That’s in work right now, and the cover for book two is nearly finalised – I’m excited to see what everyone thinks of it!

On another front, I discovered by poking around book sites that several people have taken my books, turned them into documents and illegally posted them on Scribd! This is NOT okay, and the key word is illegally! My books are not that expensive and Amazon, Lulu, et al take a cut, and it is clearly my property. I am so frustrated because building your author ‘brand’ – I hate that term – is difficult for an Indie. Trying to figure out marketing, pricing, writing, research… there are a lot of hats an Indie author wears, and it’s something I’ve had to take the time to learn on my own. So anyway, there is my little rant on that. If you ever see my works posted somewhere and it appears they may be counterfeit, please email me at: hollyblackstone.author (at) gmail.com

On a personal note, my boyfriend and I decided to get a pea patch this year, and finally received the assignment and spent almost four hours yesterday getting it somewhat tidy! We still have work to do, but it’s exciting to think about all the wonderful food we’ll be able to grow.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

All the best,

Holly
