Rebecca Leonard's Self-Publishing Blog. My tales of self-publishing and marketing my first book and it's sequel. Saturday, March 29, 2008. Self-Publishing With Amazon's Booksurge Or Else! And several other credible news sources. This reminds me of the video rental industry. Blockbuster's exclusive deal with the Weinstein company shut out, or tried to, independent video store retailers from renting Weinstein DVD's. It didn't work but monopolies do exist in business. Than Amazon.com. That's pretty ...Sesqu...

I'm throwing junk away first. I'm on my fourth garbage bag full. 33-gallon sized bags! For your kind note. Thanks, Frances Fairchil...

Well, I've overcome another huge roadblock and am now in the process of rewriting the whole first seven chapters. Sigh. I'm used to writing in third person. I like that it suits any age and I'm able to sneak in more information about the characters that way. This book. Life marches on. Take care. I might want to if i...

The day before yesterday my mother-in-law, Gerrie, called to tell me our local Borders no longer carried "Adirondack Nightmare". Well, I thought, this just can't be!

On Thursday, June 28, I hit the road again to peddle books. It was a bit late in the day, about 2:00 pm or so, and I was determined to hit Raquette Lake, Indian Lake, Inlet, Blue Mountain Lake, Old Forge and Tupper Lake. Not necessarily in that order. I asked for directions to a hotel/cabin and he said there were none in t...
