Another shingle!

Yes, folks, I've done it. I've hung up my shingle as an editor and ebook formatter. You can read all about how it works by clicking on either of the appropriate tabs above.

I am just starting to poke around to see where to advertise my services. Maybe if I get a client or two I'll spring for GoogleAds. It's hard to want to pay any money out without bringing even a little in first, though. Plus at the moment we are legitimately broke, as in, hope-we-have-enough-money-to-pay-for-the-baby's-daycare-in-September broke. It's always like that at the end of the summer, because they pay us for July and August at the same time as they pay us for June, and then we have to wait until the end of September for our next checks. Every year we try very hard not to spend too much. Each year we get a little better about it. But we still come up short. What can I say, it's a pretty major factor in the reasoning behind the hanging up of various shingles!

This is not the actual shingle I hung. This is a shingle for W.H. Smith bookstore in Romsey, England.

That Link I Promised for the Sold Book Cover.

If you were curious about that cover that I sold on SelfPubBookCovers.com, here's a link to an image they posted on Facebook. There are nine covers pictured; mine is the one in the lower right corner, with the white background and silhouettes.

I sold a cover!

I sold a cover on SelfPubBookCovers.com! Yay! I had posted two covers there, and sort of stopped thinking about them because I had too many other things to do to make new generic covers to submit to the site. And today, I got an email saying the cover sold! I'm not sure whether I can post it here, but as soon as they add it to the published covers page I'll update with a link to it.
