Publishing and Promoting

I knew from the start this wasn't going to be easy. I knew I would be doing all the grunt work when it came to getting my first book out there in the world.

So far, it is a pain in my ass! I am tired and my back hurts. I have no money to spend on promoting myself so I am trying to do every FREE thing I can think of. At times I feel like a book whore slinging my wares about town.

Book reviews are almost impossible for indie authors. Most review blogs won't even take a look at your work if it wasn't graced with a the seal of approval from some publishing shark. I actually like being independent. I don't have to answer to anyone. I can keep and toss only what I want to. I create my own timeline, cover, and character plots. It's great!

Now if I can only magically show readers the path to my novels I will be set. When that will ever happen, I don't know. But for now, I'll just keep on keepin on!

End of rant.

OFFICIAL BOOK COVER ~ THE SCENE

In the final stages of editing. Publishing date is looming upon me, I am getting a wee bit nervous with the release of my first complete fiction novel.

I pray it is a hit and no one sues me for slander.

Dylan Hart - Journalist Writer Sucker Bitch

Dylan Hart is the female protagonist in my upcoming novel The Scene (working title). After years of struggling as a freelance journalist Dylan has finally found her niche. Unfortunately, this niche has to do with investigating dead girls. These aren't your everyday dead girls in Hollywood mind you, nothing is that easy. There is of course a twist embedded in their deaths. That fact that all seven of the dead hookers have been exsanguinated sparks the interest of the media, no surprise there. Havoc ensues as Dylan and her friends dig deep into these murders. Dylan and her BFF Tatum drink, smoke, and cuss like fucking sailors throughout the bloody exploit that is The Scene. In short, someone bleeds, someone dies, someone drinks blood. Its a hellacious good time!

Keep up with Dylan and her sick sense of humor on facebook.

~The Scene should be released January of 2012 on Kindle and other ebook readers. Check out Dylan Hart and the others in their hilarious adventure into the unknown.
