Being an Indie is not easy. There are no big marketing budgets and TV appearances to spark book sales. There is only me and you.
I like it that way. I get to write what I want and you get to read what you want with no middle-person between us. No agents or publishers dictating what the storyline will be or what sells.
It’s a partnership between us, writer and reader, and it's a marvelous thing. The old closed publishing world that required almost a miracle to have the right person read your work is changing thanks to the digital age. I am grateful to still be around to experience it and enjoy it.
As of this writing, I am sixteen novels and a collection of short stories into my writing adventure. It hasn't been easy, but it has been worth it.
Some years back, I left Georgia, working for a large corporation. Then I moved west and became the city manager of a small mining community in the mountains of northern Nevada. Now my wife and I live in the deserts of the far west. You got it... more life happened.
Don't be a Follower — Make Your Dream Real
It took many years to get here. Life is like that, with lots of twists and turns and surprises. I like it that way.
Now, I write every day. I wouldn't change a thing. One thing though... I wish sometimes I had been able to find a way to keep writing while life was happening. It's not a regret, just an assessment, and it brings me to a bit of advice if you have read this far.
Don’t follow your dreams. Followers get nowhere except up the backside of the person in front.
Work your dream. Life will happen and then happen some more. That's as it should be, but you are the one who will make your dream a reality.
