Oops...There's a Book Release, a Blog Tour, and Giveaways!

It's very difficult to take a break from the computer and online work when you’ve got a new book release, so I’m not sure who to blame for the timing. 

Okay,

It’s all mine! 😊

To help highlight the Tick Tock Team’s Accomplishments today, I’ve posted a blog on the Tick Tock Site

Mysteries & Motivations

I hope you’ll stop by and tell me your favorite mystery author for a chance to win a copy of

Tick Tock: A Stitch in Crime

Also, if you want to know more about each of the authors, just follow our blog tour and be sure to enter the contest that’s running.

NOT WRITING, BUT

Hey everyone, I thought I’d post a personal blog today. All about me and what I’ve been doing. Not writing, heaven forbid, writing – what is that? I know, excuses, excuses. Here's what I've been doing instead?

Preparing the data on income and expenses for tax purposes. Always a fun adventure. NOT! But a necessary evil. The good news, 2017 ended up being a positive year for sales – no red ink.

Also, I’ve been working with the authors of Tick Tock: A Stitch In Crime on a marketing plan for the May 1^st release. But you can Pre-order NOW!

Amazon.com

We've got a Facebook Page: Tick Tock Mystery - 

https://www.facebook.com/TickTockMystery/

And we have a Blog!

https://ticktockmysteries.blogspot.co.uk/

Check them out, please.

The WEP also starts the year this February, and it’s not all about Valentines and love. This prompt is called IN TOO DEEP!

How cool is that – does it pique your writing senses? I hope so. Sign-up on Thursday, February 1^st and post the week of February 18^th.

But we've also got a new guest post by the winner of the last challenge Adura Ojo - She wrote an amazing poem called The End is the Beginning: Why Cinderella Needs a new Song  

Please read her words on how a single story creates stereotypes...

And then I’ve been trying to get the Detective Quaid Series set up with the Kindle eBook feature – X-Ray.

What is X-Ray?

X-Ray automatically creates a list of characters and terms in your book, for which you can provide descriptions and expanded information. Readers can view your content while reading your Kindle eBook.

How do I add to my book?

1.      Review an item and add a description.

2.     Click the "Item reviewed" switch to add the character or term to the list of items to be published.

3.     Repeat steps 1 and 2 for as many items as you want. You do not need to add all characters and terms at once.

4.    When you are ready to make your content visible to readers, click the "Review and publish X-Ray" button. You will receive an email when your content is available to readers.

Have you added X-Ray to your books? It’s a job and a half, but I think it can add a lot to the reader's experience. What do you think?

What have you been up to? Writing, I hope!

TICK TOCK COVER REVEAL

The clock is ticking...

Can a dead child’s cross-stitch pendant find a missing nun? Is revenge possible in just 48 minutes? Can a killer be stopped before the rescuers are engulfed by a city ablaze? Who killed what the tide brought in? Can a soliloquizing gumshoe stay out of jail?

Exploring the facets of time, eleven authors delve into mysteries and crimes that linger in both dark corners and plain sight. Featuring the talents of Gwen Gardner, Rebecca M. Douglass, Tara Tyler, S. R. Betler, C.D. Gallant-King, Jemi Fraser, J. R. Ferguson, Yolanda Renée, C. Lee McKenzie, Christine Clemetson, and Mary Aalgaard.

Hand-picked by a panel of agents and authors, these eleven tales will take you on a thrilling ride into jeopardy and secrecy. Trail along, find the clues, and stay out of danger. Time is wasting...
