Rebranding and New Content

-
Most are probably mad as hell at me as of an hour or so ago if they have seen books disappear from Amazon, Wattpad, Inkitt, GetInkspired, and aJoara. Don't worry it isn't all of them. I am so sick of writing Series', following Tropes, and beyond of what I want to do. If a book is doing excellent then I keep it up and which I have for the most part. 

Most new readers lately hate that my books aren't Novel length or they expect it to be. Or a book could be expanded for example: Summer Lovin' and A Coffee Shop Romance seems to piss readers off but eh, oh well, not like I don't have other content out there such as A Secret Love Affair, When They Kissed, and Holiday's With Her to name a few. I am also in an Anthology.

My books are my own, they are my creativity from my own imagination. I don't do Fan Fiction, I don't like mimicking other Writers/Authors, I hate tropes with a passion, I love to read Series' but don't enjoy writing them. So, what am I doing? Why am I an Author if I don't follow everyone else? Why am I an Author if I don't follow tropes? 

I am an Author because I write to the own beat of my drum. I write stories for the love of story telling, not to gain an appearance as a famous Author. I don't want to be famous, I don't want to go to events and stress the hell out because I am not what people expect. I just want to write and be happy.

Right now, it is to do one thing at a time. I am excited with this new computer and love it, especially since I got Dreamlight Valley to work properly. I don't expect anyone to understand this. But, I am doing what my lovely husband told me last night after a deep discussion on my career.

"It could be time to spread your wings and move on from those who are protecting you and/or holding you back"

Don't let anyone tell you not to do something or to hold you back from your dreams. If you are an Indie Author, you have the control and freedom to change and challenge yourself to greater lengths. It goes the same as being a Writer, you can go beyond what others expect of you. Follow your dreams and let your shine through. Reach for the stars!

With that being said, I am off to do my own thing, I got an important call very soon and I can't miss it.

Authors of Amazon & Wattpad: Going Beyond Traditional Route

Exposing our work is beyond the measure of reaching readers. We work endless on end trying to give the best ourselves as Authors to show that we can do it. This is where the world changes once you are with Amazon, you can't be shelved with anyone else once you are with them You can't be partnered with Smashwords, Books-A-Million, Barnes & Noble, Ingram Sparks, and any other Publishing Company willing to sell your books without Amazon on your hind end. I did learn that when I was contributing to both Amazon and Smashwords expanding my horizon. That led to hoping not lose my Kindle Unlimited and Selects program that lets readers borrow books, so I stopped with Smashwords within 2 years even after selling my books for free on there. Now, I have since left them and haven't returned their program for setting up their books became to much of a hassle to deal with.  Now, I have been with Wattpad since it's start practically of 2008 when I finally settled to living in West

Personal Life: Lesbian In A Straight Relationship (Amber's Self Discovery)

This will most likely be the final time, I make a blog like this to explain myself, and not that it shouldn't matter what I do in my life. I have people watching me constantly and wanting life updates including what I see and believe in.  Let me make this clear on who I am. For most of my life I have been hated on, not sure why or how, I just am. I admit out loud, I am damn sure not the prettiest woman out there. I am used for sex more times than I would like to say out loud. I have been mentally abused since my teen years. I have been taken advantage of for my kindness. I have the worst way of expressing myself but when it comes to the truth, I am down right avoided for. I do suffer anxiety, depression, minor ptsd, and mental problems that I wish not to bring up to often. Yes, I can take medication to help my moods and everything else, does it help? No. Does sleeping help? I don't sleep since I have Insomnia and my brain never shuts down, I also have RLS, heart problems, and s

Unrealistic

-
This topic is sensitive to me in every aspect possible. I will not lie. I've been writing fictional stories since I was 16 years old, granted, they were very short and a beginning of writing serious stories. At 22, after both my heart surgeries and began getting my GED, I took advantage in class of writing instead of focusing on my GED. I got in a lot of trouble for that, so when we had a substitute a certain one I would divide myself between them both. Writing lesbian romance has been with me since then. I am now 35 years old and been an Author for 8 years. Since becoming an Author, I have gotten more reviews on my work being unrealistic instead of praising my creativity. I get 3-5 star reviews rarely but mostly 1 star reviews.  The reviews are consistent too. Most one that gets me is the reviewers calling my books unrealistic. No fucking shit! Yeah, I just cursed get over it. Fictional stories aren't meant to be real if I wanted to write reality I would be or hell writing Fan
