Tuesday, March 19

It appears that my book is now distributed to most of Smashwords book companies that they work with. Amazon still does not have my book yet though, and that is a little disappointing, but hopefully soon. Until then, I have caught a couple errors in The Fire Fox that I will be updating.

I hope you will take some time and look at my personal blog. At the moment it is much more established than this blog, but I do intend to keep up with both.

Update

Well, as of today my book has been distributed to a few companies such as Apple, but they are still revising at Smashwords for several other companies in their distribution network. Amazon and Barnes & Noble are two still waiting on their revised copy to distribute.

Up until now, I have only sold ten copies, but that is okay. I am not giving up, and I know this can be a slow process. I am next focusing on some marketing and that should help get my name out there. But even if I don't sell many more books, I am content because I did this for myself and writing this book alone is a huge accomplishment!

About Zaidey

I have lived in southern Indiana my whole life.  My husband and I live in a rural community with our budding family in a hundred year old farmhouse. We own a small business that offers small scale home repairs/remodels. We also do occasional "cleanouts" of abandoned property that allows us to come across items which we sell from time to time on eBay under the name "alwaysbluestudio". I take care of the accounting and eBay aspect of our business and also our two kids and six pets. I am involved in a local MOPs group, enjoy gardening and art, and attend a small church with my family. And somehow between all that I am also trying my hand at writing books on the side. I started this blog as a way for you to connect with my books.

I attended Purdue University and graduated with a degree in fine art.  I designed the cover of the Fire Fox book myself!  I love art, but have always had a passion to write as well.  Right now, I am focused on being a mother and a wife, but writing gives me that creative outlet I need to feel like myself again outside of the daily demands of real life.  I am sure many of you out there can relate : )

Thank you for taking part in this journey with me.

Welcome!

Thank you for visiting my blog!  I am glad you have taken the time to find out a little bit more about me and who I am as an author. 

First of all, my book The Fire Fox Tablet and any others that I write will be clean (free of profanity, sexual scenes, gore, etc.).  So, you can feel safe reading my stories to your children or allowing your older children to read them on their own!  That is not to say that there is no adventure or love - on the contrary.  I feel my books are something you will enjoy as an adult, and that your child can follow along with you and understand as well. 

Second, I am a Christian.  There are definite faith undertones to my style of writing.  Whether you are a believer or not, I hope it will give you something to think on and ponder.

And lastly, I hope you become a fan and come back for more.  I intend to turn the Firefox into a series.  If you like what you have read, be sure to leave me a review and share that with others.  It would be an encouragement to me if you also started to follow my blog and subscribed to the posts via email.
