The Book Launch – The Day After . . .

On Day 1- Morning of release

Thrilled to see my book hit #1 in Amazon Hot New Releases for Single Women Fiction!

Day 2 – the day after release

However, that was yesterday, and today it is at #3 in that category. Still good, but we will see what advertizing does for it.

Meanwhile, in the real world, I finally finished that catalogue I was working on–not the best catalogue ever designed in the world, but it’s finished at least! Now, I’m just waiting to see if Canada Post sorts out its issues and I can order a proof of the catalogue without having to pay for courier service. I still hope there is time once Canada Post gets back for me to be able to get the catalogue distributed by mail to the stores. All this cost is on top of the cost of the digital catalogues.

I’ve been debating doing a video series on Youtube about publishing, the process, behind the scenes, dealing with bookstores, etc. I don’t know that I want to do that. I don’t want to be on camera.

I am just really tired today. I stayed up too late. I’ve been staying up too late every night for the past week. Last night I tried to go to bed early and it was 2 am. So, I’m getting better, but still oversleeping, feeling tired in the daytime, etc. I’m sure it had nothing to do with the chocolate cupcakes and ice cream yesterday to celebrate the book release. (Okay, okay, I would’ve had it anyway but just used the book release as an excuse lol).

So, today I’m likely to get not much done. I’ve been working every weekend for a month or so because of this book, and the “other project”, so I’m not going to be too hard on myself if I take the day off today and just veg out with coffee and youtube.
