???? TEFF HAS Twelve years on WDC! FORUM keeps ADC records. |
THIS IS THE CORRECTED COPY FOR THE RECORD Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 Drum roll .... {{b} Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 Good morning to all CLUB members this frigid January morn. Wishing this missive finds you warm & blessed, creatively steeped in your particular literary pursuits. Currently, being on Kindle pushes my venue more into promo than ever before. Being online for a decade, here's my very first picture. Yeah, this is me, Jan 26. Now, true meaning ... as smiling Irish eyes --- convey another "Nice to meet you." UPDATES ----> 2012: BRAND NEW Introductions for both "AUTHORS DISCUSSION CLUB" & "RIDING THE WRITERS WAVE OPENS" First up and there's no reversal this time for the following decision, since the time seems right for reaching online outward. ID: 1343647 (Rated: 18+) RIDING THE WRITERS WAVE OPENS 2012 AUTHORS DISCUSSION CLUB: WEB OPEN FORUM/ PROMO/ OPINION/ LIT. SEEKING NEW TOPICS by MARY MOFFETT: TEFF (102) ..... Shall remain open for an I-net audience. No longer marked group only views. Which also means open posting from anyone lingering onsite. Posts RE: publication, promotion or ties to content no longer appear hidden from Joe & Joanne Public. CLUB HISTORY RECAP OUR motto, mission statement steers aways from how2writeonly, broadly swings into content. What published authors write about falls under DISCUSSION. Genre requirements are an entirely separate topic but absolutely in the category of genre hows. CONTENT, the cream of the crop comes with competition. Amazon.com carries six million authors. Be these fine folks recently signed up or already established authors ... a reasonable conclusion is their works are perused for content. As opposed to missing commas. So, please ID: 1323687 (Rated: 18+) AUTHORS DISCUSSION CLUB NL Archive/ WAVE FORUM/ BUY & PUBLISH US!! Truth RE: The Craft c 2007 NEW!!!! 2012 STYLE by MARY MOFFETT: TEFF (102) Please view important changes and our member list as well. Make sure you’re A-OK willing to be a party to the gist of the criteria mentioned there. Thanx. Please concur as individuals, CLUB, basically your support to these concepts. Yeah, LEAR- ing English usage is fine. HODGES is a nickname for a Library REF. Stepping up, smarty up at the turn of a bracelet is inside content for mature genre readerships to purchase wares. Suggestions are indeed welcome and you may post just about anything (open bag stats) on the forum. WAVE. During JAN communications with Ms Ann Patterson, I continued renovating these peculiar newer facades. Lifting the face of ADC (AUTHORS DISCUSSION CLUB) toward an upbeat world a large. While I am convinced promotional aspects onsite are a bit nil, electronic publication sellers invariably suggest detailing digital story sums in blogs, forums, etc. They (the proverbial they) offer more general suggestions to put one's works out into the public advert arenas. AS: OUR individual blogs are also suggested spots for promo ... at this point ... we have "RIDING THE WRITERS WAVE OPENS" among other site places, of course. Take for instance: ID: 971987 (Rated: E) On Our Own: Indie-publishing Group Forums, marketing info, advice, and support concerning indie-publishing. Open to all. by Voxxylady (130) As a receptive member there since 2006, I skirted self publishing for years. However, those INDIE newsletters and options for promotion, I literally breathe in, pore over and respect. Now, shuffling through Kindle's promo hows and how nots. Basically we never stop researching in a sense. Why would we? Research is interesting. The above paragraphs offer a nutshell version. Here's the juice. IMPORTANT REQUEST: I'd like all members who are selling any works currently to submit them by posts. Please note your: Title, location where thy work is available, etc. At least start the ball rolling, IF YOU WISH. Then I shall catalog these briefly and list them on both intro spots. It is too difficult to search 104 portfolios to find these myself. (Sorry. Which is a hee hee, ha ha, because you probably didn't expect such an undertaking.) BOTH of the new intros argued with me for re-re-re-re clarity editing. These brand, sparkling, revamped, INTROS say basically the same thing but use different wording meant to approach varied audiences who hit on these bitems. Holding back this letter, written on the 15th of Jan, allows me to wax specific. Previously, a ken to spontaneously communicate shall in future cut back to better prep from this desk. As I was glib, happy-go-lucky, seasonal and wildly misunderstood. Remember, Dear CLUB --- TEFFs not the sharpest fork in the drawer. While steering my way into digital publishing, fiction compiling, etc ... maybe I do favor a fork in the road approach for the CRAFT!! So what. Composing was not problematic. What is a pain in the arse is waiting for Explorer (not for wc) to cast mercy upon my online soul, sold directly to the devil years past. I never believe digital publication is similar to a serene waterfall on a gorgeous mountain and (I) am entirely guilty of preferring print reading, my own darn self. THUS: BOOK recommendations, meaning: LITERARY discussions of what we read seems a fine addition @ CLUB & VIEWERS FINGERTIPS. FYI ---- TITLES/ AUTHORS/ PUBLISHERS, copyright .... supplied by Miss TEFF via Public Libraries, lies inside a few monthly NL. Then, all NL recorded as an OFFICIAL record. Aka citations. Most of the above dating way back to 20007/8/9. NOW .... AFTER FIVE WE’RE OPEN!! REVIEW AFFILIATION Recently, noticed that many of our members are avid reviewers. Naturally, you may be choosing a review association (group, whatever) which you're already using, of course. ALL fine, aka individual choice. Tapping AUTHORS DISCUSSION CLUB before sending reviews (REVS) ... Or using the shared sigs: image# 1565394 0r image# 1564814 might bring us more views. Thanx. There are no prizes for such actions nor incentives. Sorry. Which also comes with a hee hee hee. Because I am not apologetic in the least. Due AN HONORARY ken shared by six million OTHER AUTHORS --- for loving to write FICTION ---- THUS, CLUB! Just like y’all requiring time schedules for my silly old self.
