Mid-launch update, free workshop, and podcast fun


News & Musings from
Susanne Dunlap

Dear Reader,

This will be brief. I'm scrambling to do my launch social media—thanking bloggers for their wonderful reviews and features of The Falconer's Lost Baron, continuing my posting introducing the characters in the book, etc.—and also to keep up with my busy coaching and editing schedule.

And I'll have to update my website and other graphics too. It's all part of the business of being an author. Make no mistake: it is a business.

As is my coaching, and tomorrow I'm giving a free workshop as part of ProWritingAid's Novel November.

Workshop: Forget the words! Revision Strategies to Get Your Manuscript to the Next Level.

The workshop is 12/4 at 9am EST on Zoom. All the workshops this month are free—but you do have to register. You can do that here.

You'll have access to a recording and slides afterwords if you can't make the time, so register anyway!

I'm a guest on a podcast!

Want to hear a fun conversation about writing and romance? Listen to The Editor's Ink Pot on Substack. We could have talked all day...but we didn't, LOL!

More next week. Until then, happy reading and writing!

Susanne

Whether you give lots of gifts or just observe one of the many festivals that take place at this time of the year with friends or family, it's an opportunity to find light when things seem darkest in the northern hemisphere. It strikes me how biased toward the northern hemisphere the religious calendars can be. But it's...

News & Musings from Susanne Dunlap Dear Reader, Thought I'd send this off before I go to pick up my pumpkin pie and my turkey... A whole turkey for just two people is crazy, but trust me, we'll make good use of the leftovers (and it will be a small turkey). I have a couple of limited-time opportunities I wanted to share first, though. Miss Pauline's Perfect Present—FREE on Kindle That's right! You can get a Kindle edition of my heart-warming holiday novella free now through Saturday, November...

News & Musings from Susanne Dunlap Dear Reader, I can't believe American Thanksgiving is a week away. I'm not ready. I'm hosting a small gathering chez moi, but so far other than ordering my turkey I am burying my head in the sand. When I was a child, Thanksgiving was a big deal. In addition to the dinner (I only really liked the pumpkin pie), it marked the day after which we were allowed to mention Christmas, and spend hours leafing through the Sears Christmas catalogue. My family celebrated...
