And Now it Has Begun--2020!

It's still hard for me to get my mind around the fact that this is 2020!

Nearly two weeks in and it's well on it's way. I've already attended my first meeting of the San Joaquin chapter of Sister in Crime, have worked more on my next Deputy Tempe Crabtree mystery and all the other things that come in the day-to-day process of living.

This is the time of year when we authors start to make plans about promotion. What are your plans in this direction?

So far, I'm signed up for the Public Safety Writers Conference in July--my favorite because I can hang out with my favorite law enforcement and fire fighter folks, and mystery writer friends.

I'm making a plan for a panel with two other local authors to be held at our local library, and we plan on calling it, Ask the Author.

Haven't heard yet about up-coming book fairs, but I'm sure that's coming.

I'll keep on doing blog posts and guesting on blogs.

I also plan on doing more online promotion for my older books.

And as we all know, sometimes our plans don't work out because of unplanned events in our lives.

So, what have you got on your agenda so far?

And if you're a reader and not a writer, what kind of author events are you most likely to be interested in?

Marilyn who is starting 2020 full of enthusiasm.

I'll just be glad if I can finish my NaNoWriMo book I started years ago!

I always have too much to do, but I think it keeps my brain working.
