Long and Short Reviews Weekly Blog Challenge | 04.08.20


First, my apologies for missing last week's blog challenge. Due to an unexpected scheduling conflict (my error), I was unable to participate.


Now to this week's challenge: Topic(s) I could give an impromptu speech on.


Goodness, where do I begin? I do have tons of knowledge on a variety of subjects. However, I don't like giving speeches. Makes me nervous. I'm an introvert. Getting in front of a crowd means I have to prepare myself. If I absolutely had to, I would talk about merchandising (I was the Merch/Supervisor for Borders Books) in a bookstore. I could talk at length on positioning, symmetry, and understanding your target customer in the community.


Yet I've found talking about my stories in public does not bother me. I enjoy going to book signings. It's something I love to do. So I'll leave you with my latest release, which I totally loved writing. Psst...it's been nominated for the 2020 RONE Award from InD'tale Magazine in the Time Travel/Science Fiction category. You bet I'm excited!


To read what the others are saying about this week's challenge, hop on over here.


See you next week! Be safe and well. xo
