I’d like to share some blogging and publishing news before unplugging for a month. (If you are part of my newsletter, you’ll know even more!)

I’ve already written and scheduled posts for March – trying to get all of my folklore posts from the old blog updated and published here, as well as the A-Z Theme Reveal post (yeah, I’m doing the month long blogging thing in April again), and a bookblast post (or more!) of a new release of a blogging friend. I won’t be around to answer comments, but be sure to leave some for me to get to in April!

And…
A story of mine was accepted to be published in the first Grumpy Old Gods anthology. It will be published in March. Look out for great posts and tidbits from me and the other authors over on the anthology blog. The launch is the 30th of March onwards.

If you’d like to be part of the launch team, fill in the Google doc to get your ARC and choose which activities you’d like to be part of.
Reading News
You can check out the books I’ve read and reviewed thus far for 2019 over on my Goodreads Challenge.
Social Media News
I have some great Pinterest boards dedicated to writing, folklore and food if you are interested.
On Twitter, I’ve shared loads of articles concerning writing and the life of an authorpreneur in the last two months – so if you want a curated reading-list of articles, go check them out.
I’ve been a bit quiet on Instagram – I’m still figuring out the type of content I want to share and the frequency at which I want to share it. I think having to do it from my phone instead of from my PC makes this a bigger issue in my head than it should be. I’m working on it!

To summarise:
- I published a new book every two weeks – all of them currently available at 99c from major online retailers.
- There are great posts already published and others awaiting your reading-pleasure in March.
- I’m going to do the A-Z Challenge in April.
- I’ve read and reviewed a couple of books.
- There are great resources for you on my Pinterest and Twitter feeds.
- And you can get an ARC of Grumpy Old Gods Vol. 1 to review.
That’s a wrap!
What have you done in the first two months of 2019? Any tips on Instagram content you’d like to see from me?

Great summary. As always. I’m dipping a toe into Instagram. I too hate that I have to do it on my phone but Forbes has a workaround:

Once set up, it is ready every time I go on Instagram on my desktop. Love it.
Excellent! Thanks for sharing the Instagram work-around 🙂
Hey Ronel, a great post. Boy, have you been busy. Setting a standard already. You Go!
I featured you on our blog and in our newsletter. https://stormdancebooks.junetakey.com/posts/grumpy-old-gods-launch/
Thanks, Juneta 🙂 With the warm weather I seem to be on a go-go-go train all day, we’ll see what happens when the cold eventually sets in.
Yay for doing A to Z.
The Black Moon cover is amazing.
That’s a lot of books out! Great work.
I signed up for the ARC.
Thanks, J! I hope you enjoy your ARC of “Grumpy Old Gods” 🙂
Signed up for your promotion, but not posts for Tuesday if you please. 🙂
