My telephone interview went really well yesterday. ** I've deleted the direct link to listen, only because I'm trying all kinds of things to see if I can get my blog to look "normal" again...at least to me.
Yes, a 45 minute LIVE interview tomorrow, Wednesday April 9th. Please keep reading for all the information.
The most amazing thing happened to me because of an internet search. I couldn't find the site I was looking for and in one of those serendipitous discoveries, I landed on Karen Lynn Maher's website, LegacyONEauthors.
I immediately saw that Karen's business helps authors through every stage of writing: Plan. Write. Publish. And she was and still is offering a FREE 30 Minute Phone Consultation! So, I decided to take advantage of speaking with Karen, even though I've already published my memoir. Because I obviously want to learn as much as I can about this writing/publishing world we live in.
Although I missed our scheduled phone time, (yes, I really did!) Karen was gracious enough to leave a voice-mail, saying I could call her back because I was the only one slated for that period. So, what did I do? I called her right back.

As I told Karen about my journey to publication, she was so kind and encouraging. She said it sounded like I was doing everything the right way and offered a few other suggestions.
I won't go into everything Karen's business offers, because it can be found on her website. And if you're an author, don't forget about the FREE 30 Minute Phone Consultations.
Okay, so here's what's happening tomorrow. If anyone wants to listen to the live interview, figure out what time that is in your time zone! Here's the info:

Hi Molly! Thank you! I'm a little bit nervous. Although I talk a lot, and I'm not shy....45 minutes is a LONG time! LOL
DeleteSerendipity at her work again. Love it - and yes, please tell us all about it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, EC
DeleteI just love that word, "serendipity" but I never thought to use it until Lisa Claro wrote about it a year or two ago. It's even fun to say!
Wow, sounds awesome! I'm sure you'll be a hit.

ReplyDeleteHi Jo! Thank you! You're always so supportive! It's so strange to think of you being on the other side of this amazing planet of ours...and being able to listen, and communicate the way we do on the internett!!
DeleteHi Becky....Hope the interview went well. I'm just now getting caught up on reading blog posts so I missed it.
ReplyDeleteHope it's warming up there, Becky. Today in western Mass, it was sunny but still on the chilly side.
Take care. Susan p.s. Thanks for your visits to my blog. Always nice to see you've stopped by.
Hi Susan! I hope you had a beautiful weekend. Our weather has been gorgeous...warm, sunny...almost hot! Today was cooler and a bit of rain, but no complaints!! And thank YOU for always visiting MY blog, too!
DeleteHope you had fun with it! I never have liked the publicity side of writing too much. With my first book, the publisher made me go to a lot of signings and do a lot of interviews. I was always happy when it was over!

Hi Sue! I love to talk!! LOL, so I have no problem with that part of marketing....or any part, for that matter!
DeleteI'm so glad this was recorded - I'd love to listen to it. Congratulations, Becky! I hope you had a blast.
ReplyDeleteHi Julie! Thank you! It's great to see your lovely face here in my comments!
DeleteI know I need to stop by your blog. It's been way too long. And I DID have a good time during the interview. You can listen anytime, and to as little as you want. 45 minutes is a LONG interview!
