I like to self-publish my books for now. Why? Traditional publishers take at least a year and a half from start to finish. If you can get a book deal with them, you must work with editors who may change your original manuscript for content. You still get a say,…
Have you ever got distracted by new ideas just when you were finishing a task or project? It happens to me a lot. But I have found a solution to keeping it from derailing a project or keeping me from finishing a task. It’s a simple solution, but very effective.…
I haven’t written the final four devotionals yet. Part of the pause in my writing is due to still try to navigate working while I’m on my sites, switching every two hours. This means I only have a certain amount of time during the day that I face my computer…
I’ve been working daily devos for years now. I’ve been talking about the finish line of writing and only having editing and publishing to go. I only have four more devotionals to write, and then I will be finished with the writing phase. I’m looking forward to it, believe it…
I’ve slowly been writing through the last 10 devotionals for my devotional book that will be coming out by the end of May. I have eight left. After that, I will have to edit the entire manuscript. This will take the longest time. Next comes formatting the book, followed by…
it’s a good feeling. I’m close to the end of writing my devotional book. Except for ten more devotions, five for Mother’s Day and five for Father’s Day, the writing and translating portion of this project is finished. I’ll have an even better feeling when I am finished with these…
This has been a rough week so far for writing in my devotional book. I did a lot last week with it. But this week has been full of things that can’t control. Have you ever felt that way? I had a small procedure that happens once a month on…
First of all, don’t do it! The translating part, I mean. It’s tedious work, but it yields a great reward. Translating is time-consuming. Why would I translate the passages from the Bible for my devotionals? I have a policy with all my books to translate any text from Scripture myself.…
I’m making progress on my Daily Devos book. I have about 15 more devotionals to write, and then it should be finished. Then comes the editing, formatting, and publishing. I don’t know how long it will take me to have it ready to publish. I’m hoping it takes a shorter…
I’ve had so many things distracting me lately that the short posts about my writing progress have become more about my lack of progress. But that is slowly changing. I’m registered for MinistrieSummit23, and selling my books at an exhibitor table. I’m pretty excited about this. My life group has…
