May 24, 2024
Blurbs. Those short book descriptions on the back covers of books or on the sales pages of Amazon or Apple Books. Authors hate writing them. Readers hang on every word of them. Why? Emotion. Gut-wrenching, will she save the world, will he get the girl, will they find the killer before he kills again emotion. After all, that It what sells a book. And selling a book is what a blurb is all about. Keep
Flirting with Funny: Madison Michael Rebranded
May 15, 2024
The Power of a Brand You’d be a fool to underestimate the power —or value —of a brand, or a rebrand. Take McDonalds or Coca-Cola. Their brands are recognized the world over. And those brands are protected by the companies that own them because they have real bottom line value.

You’ll Love Author Nancy Houser-Bluhm
January 23, 2024
I have had the great good fortune of knowing and working with Nancy Houser-Bluhm for the few years and more. Her quiet presence is calming to me, her humor is subtle, her work ethic is inspiring and her presence in our group of writers is a joy.

I might have teased you about JL Regen’s Secret Desires. This is about her novel with that title, but I will share a bit about JL herself.
