ANOTHER 20 REWRITES LATER . . .

Okay!!! Sooo . . . 18 months is a little long.  But, but, but . . . I've been busy.  At what? Oh, have you heard of a rewrite?  I now have a new understanding of that dirty word!  However, it is (I have learned) a great way to become a better writer.  Really! It is. I promise.

Each time I finished a rewrite, I thought I'd go back through it and check for errors, typos and such . . .  you know.  Well, it's amazing how many ways I saw to better my writing -- things like expanding scenes to complete them, revealing the inner feelings of the characters and in a couple of instances, adding new scenes.  The book is much better than it was 18 months ago.

I now have an editor and maybe a new outlet for marketing the book.  Check back in another 18 months and see how I've done.  Oh, really now! 18 months.  Just kidding -- I hope.  Give me a month or so. 

By the way, I've updated the ebook and paperback versions with all my editors many suggestions.  If interested, please check it out.  Go to my site https://wheredragonsfly.

I'm really am having fun with this.  I hope you have fun with yours.

Well it's been a few months. (Ha! That's a laugh)  Come on.  I've been busy.  It took many, many, many rewrites to get "Where Dragons Fly" finalized.  Did I say many? 

Hey! All that work paid off though.  It's getting 5 star ratings from e-book readers at Amazon, Barnes & Nobel, Smashwords, Apple and others, and it's only $3.99.  Check it out at www.robertghent.com.  While there, you can read our young hero's backstorys.  They are short and exciting.  Also, you can read several exciting excerpts from the book.  And, you can buy it as a paperback at Lulu.com for only $6.99.  You have to be a Lulu member, but it's free and there's no catches.

Sorry it took so long to get back.

My website: WHERE DRAGONS FLY is up!

Everyone loves the site.  It's beautiful and informative. You can even read 4 chapters of the book there.  You can also get a FREE ebook reader for your PC or MAC.  And, for a limited time, you can download a free copy of it (WHERE DRAGONS FLY - Book 1: Night of the Drackin).

After you read it, PLEASE leave a review on Smashwords, Barnes & Nobel, and Amazon.  My website, www.robertghent.com. has direct links to these sites and my book.

Ready To Put New Web Site On Line

I used Intuit to develop a website for myself and WHERE DRAGONS FLY.  It is complete enough to publish.  That should happen by the Oct 26.  Backstory for the main character is complete. I still need that for three other characters plus by profile page.  Reviewers will be getting the story shortly, thus the rush to finish the site.  Look for robertghent.com in a couple of days.

PUBLISHING ON SMASHWORDS

Getting your document published on Smashwords can be trying.  EVERYTHING has to be soooo perfect.  See the Smashwords link to the right under my pages and learn how to simplify the process.

Marketing WHERE DRAGONS FLY-Book1: Night of the Drackin

As you might expect, no one is finding this book by accident.  It takes marketing and that's what I'll be learning next.  Stay tuned!
