If you choose the path of an indie author, you are bound to meet people who will make you want to quit. People who will try to cheat you by offering useless marketing services to promote your books. People who will tell you that you will never achieve success. People who will lose interest in... Continue Reading →
Sometimes we all need a gentle nudge. We need it for various reasons. To snap out of the apathy caused by the everyday routine that feels like a burden.

All three books have already begun to mix in my head in one completely engrossing narrative, so I’ll do my best not to give out any spoilers. “Down A Darker Path”, book two of... Continue Reading →
I devoured this book in a few sittings. Like other books by this author, “The Mysterious Disappearance of Mr. Darcy” has everything that Jane Austen fans crave to find in “Pride and Prejudice” variations. More of the romance between Lizzy and Mr. Darcy, the English high society, constrained by the strict rules of propriety but... Continue Reading →
