- Thanks for the three cents05/09/2008 - 11:22
Thanks for the three cents on web sites Jan, Jules and Paula! I think it helps to get feedback from you gals who have already traveled this road.
Paula--okay, that's funny about the surname / ro-mance thing! I think it's kind of catchy!
In a positive way!

Tasha, hugs on the R. But . . . anytime you get comments or suggestions that is gold. Editors are much too busy to write comments unless they see promise.
So congrats on that--and for having the guts to send your stuff out. Can't sell without sending out and the R's are part of it. Good luck!

Trish--that's so interesting and a great point--to keep reading a new author well into the third book because it takes a while for her to grow into the voice that makes it special. I've heard other authors say that it takes 4 to 5 ms's to truly discover/embrace your own uniqueness and voice. Something like that. Anyway, it's interesting.
Wow a week for birthday celebration! You are lucky WJ! Happy Birthday!

Jules--clicked to your website. Nice! The pic of you and I especially love the pink toe polish!
I've been doing reserarch on getting a website, but have been waiting for . . . you know . . . THE CALL!!!
Given your experiences, how do the rest of you feel? Wait for The Call to establish a website or not? I know it comes down to personal choice, but it'd be great to hear pearls of wisdom from this group!

What a fabulous opportunity for you UK gals! That is great news, Kate!
And I'm enjoying Kate's 12 pt guide as well! It's easy to see why it is so wildly popular and going into another printing! Excellent job, Kate. Thank you for laying it all out where the reader can relate and understand! And to share your insights with everyone -- you're awesome!
Hugs!
