This afternoon, I helped Gary with work
around the farm yard. My job was pulling up vines. It was the first
gardening of the season so I enjoyed that, though I'll have a sore
back tonight.
Now Gary is packing up his laundry and
various gadgets he wants me to take back to Seymour tomorrow. He will join me
there on April 10th. We have a month after that to do a
few things like guard sturgeon and do the annual Midwest crane count,
and then mid-May, camping season starts. We almost certainly will get
a canoe trip on the Wolf River in there somewhere.
It was Bettyann Moore's turn to do a
story and post it at Black Coffee Fiction http://blackcoffeefiction.blogspot.com. It turned out that her
story was too long, so she will do a two or three part story which
means I won't have to write another for another three or four weeks.
I am looking at that as a vacation from writing.
Instead, I am going to be working on PR
for the three books I've written or co-written since September 2012.
It is time to set up more book signing events, to work on learning
about social media, and dropping books off at local libraries.
Decades of Love and Other
Disasters has joined the others at Amazon.com. I checked the
sales statements a little while ago. I've now sold enough books to
get a royalty check in May. I am hoping to make that a regular thing.
I'll also be working on setting up more
storytelling tours. There will be the Circle Tour around Lake
Superior in July. Liz Miller from New Zealand has asked me to meet
her in Jonesborough, Tennessee in October, though I am not sure the
Mercury Sable is up for a drive in the Appalachian Mountains. And of
course, I want a tour in February 2014, my annual Get Away from Snow
excursion.
There is plenty do do. A busy summer ahead.
