    Project Updates September 2018

    I've not got as much done this month as I wanted to to be honest. I've tried by best but mainly due to my mental health I had to put on the breaks a bit. Here's what I've managed to to this month: Marketing So this month I had a table at Chester Comic Con again yay! It was sadly quite a rainy day so the con in general didn't get as many people as it would have liked and I think that affected my minimal sales. Sadly, with this being an unsuccessful con for a second year going

    Project Updates August 2018

    A quiet month but a good one in terms of progress :) Marketing Not too much done on the marketing side this month. I signed up to do a blog event where authors and bloggers posted something for you to read every day in August and that was fun. It gave me the push to polish up a story I've been wanting to put together for a while and also gave me something to publish on Tapas which I've been wanting to do for a long while.

    Project Updates July 2018

    Hands down the most successful month as an Author so far!! Marketing This month was a busy one mainly due to cons. I managed to get a last min vendor table to Cox con and nearly sold out of the stock of books I took with me. I took 30 and left with 3! Some people were even nice enough to come back and give me a bit of feedback after reading the first few chapters :) Moon Girl 3: Guillotine Stage: Beta Reading Yeah, I know still beta reading. I have at least gotten a copy bac

    Project Updates June 2018

    June has been a slow month but as you can see I'm posting this in July. The reason I postponed this update is because the things happening in June happened right at the end so I wanted to see how they went before reporting in. Marketing So in the last week I ran a giveaway in order to try to pull back some e-mail subscribers after that atomic bomb that was GDPR. It wasn't as successful as I wanted to be but I can learn from it at least. The second thing was I did an author f

    The Curious Case of Product Two

    As an author, I hate to say it but I love my characters. All of them. Without exception. Some more than others but Product Two is no exception. I want to talk about where he came from, why I love him and a little bit of fun trivia. (SPOILERS FOR MOON GIRL 1: MOON RISE AND MOON GIRL 2: BELL TOLE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.) Conception When I first started writing Moon Girl, Two didn't exist. He, and most of the cast were yet to be thought of when I sat down and first wrote the ki

    Project Updates March 2018

    It's been a hard month as an author. My sales have been non-existent and I can't do anything with Moon Girl 3 but wait for beta readers which feels like I've been waiting forever... Generally, the lack of movement is getting frustrating and I've spent a while trying to think of what I can do to change that. Marketing Marketing is hard. I've been wracking my brain trying to think of what I can do to generate more interest in Moon Girl and hopefully improve sales a bit. I c

    Character Fact file with a Twist: Dreda Toth

    Name: Dreda Toth/Moon Girl Series: Moon Girl Hogwarts House: Slytherin Dreda could easily fit into Griffindor. Sure, she is brave but it's not by choice, she's simply desensitised to most things thanks to the project. What's kept her alive and made her the best fighter in the room despite her smaller than average size is her cunning. She can see the best course of action to take in combat and is happy to use anything on hand if it achieves her victory. Deadly Sin: Pride A clo

    Project Updates February 2018

    Second month of the year! And it's really short. And I've been ill for like a week of it so generally not much progress this month. Marketing I didn't have any marketing events this month, especially after burning myself out last month. My writing group's January session was on blogs and it helped me get some ideas on how to clean up my blog a bit. You should see shiny new categories now, a good attempt at getting a post out every Monday and posts that aren't just reviews.

    Project Update October 2017

    So October has been both eventful and not eventful. Sales wise it's not been great but progress wise I leveled up and am now a 2 book author! Woo! Moon Girl 2 is here! In general marketing promotion, I did a giveaway of Amazon gift vouchers this month in exchange for e-mails. Thank you to everyone who entered and I hope the lucky winners got themselves something nice. Also with the release of Moon Girl 2 will be giving away Moon Girl 1 ebook for free until the 3rd.

    Moon Girl 2: Bell Toll is here!

    Moon Girl 2: Bell Toll has finally hit the market! I'm so happy. Moon Girl 2 was very fun to write it. Hands down it has one of the best character introductions so far. I got to reveal more about Dreda's life before being a hero and more about the people she saw as family. I got to reveal the biggest plot point of the series. The reason almost every villain is doing what they are doing. The reason this superhero world isn't all that it seems. I'm excited to see the reactions

    Project Update September 2017

    September had been another good month. As much as I haven't had as many online sales my sales Chester Comic Con have made it a successful month. Writing targets have been met and things are progressing nicely. Moon Girl 1: Moon Rise Status: Marketing Moon Girl 1 is chugging away at marketing. It's gotten a few low reviews this month but in the end, not everyone is going to like it so it's something I'm going to have to live with. I also sold Moon Girl at Chester Comic Con

    Project Update August 2017

    It's been a good month for me as an author. I've had the second highest (none free) sales since I started. It's been a bit weird at times. I had my first real life event, got pretty stressed out about that and may have gone a bit quiet after but I had nearly a weeks worth of all day meetings at work and generally wanted some time to recharge after. I have still been working hard to progress, here's what I've been up to: Moon Girl 1: Moon Rise Stage: Marketing Working hard m

    Meet and Greet at the Storyhouse.

    This Thursday I had my first real life event as an author at Chester's Storyhouse! I was given the opportunity to fill in one of their New Voices slots that allows a self-published author to steal a room for an hour, meet some potential readers and sell some books. I was happy for this opportunity! The Storyhouse didn't charge me anything for the privilege so I didn't have to worry about getting back the price of the table. Overall I sold a grand total of one book! Which migh

    Writing progress!

    Hello, everyone. A bit of news. The first draft of Moon Girl 3 is done. Yay! Where is Moon Girl 2 you say? Why am I not working on that? Well, Moon Girl 2 won't be far off. I like to put it through a lot of rigorous beta reading before it goes anywhere which is where it is currently. I'll admit I've kinda used Moon 3 as an excuse to procrastinate getting the cover for 2 done but now I no longer have that excuse.... I want to take a bit of time to tell you about my process bef

    Great Books for Great Causes

    The event 'Great Books for Great Causes' has started.

    It's been a while since I did a post just updating on progress. I've mostly done that sort of news in newsletters but I feel like I should put it on here too. First things, first, there is a new section to the website yay! I added an events page. Here I'll list events to do with Moon Girl and some general events I'll be attending that you might be able to catch me at should you want to say 'hi'.

    New Author Report

    It's literally been about three weeks since I became an author and I'm still getting my head around it. It hasn't been long but I've already had some ups and downs. It's been stressful and fun all at the same time. First things first, if you saw any of my social media you would know that Moon Girl One kindle version was free for five days. Overall the promotion was a success, over a hundred copies were downloaded so that's over a hundred people that are hopefully reading my w

    Free stuff, you say?

    Yes, but for a limited time. Starting on the 16/012017 Moon Girl 1: Moon Rise kindle version will absolutely free for a grand total of 5 days (I wanted to do 6 for book reasons but apparently the max is 5). So, you don't even have a week to pick up your free copy. So that's the promotional stuff ^ Now to do that general blog stuff cause things have been exciting and I haven't really had time to write a post. For one really obvious thing you know by now.
