Many thanks to Barbara Leonhard of MasticadoresUSA for publishing another one of my poems. I’m sure it’s no guess as to whose wives this poem is about. I hope you, the reader, enjoy it!

“Downton Abbey” Poem
Many thanks to Barbara Leonhard of MasticadoresUSA for publishing another of my poems, a pantoum inspired by the franchise of the same name. If you’re a fan of the said franchise, I hope you feel this poem does it justice, especially with the third and final film months away.

Coffee with…
Here I am again on author Sally Cronin’s blog, this time promoting another writer, one who has offered encouragement and kindness for years, Canadian author Sharon Ledwith.
I would also like to acknowledge that Sharon is one of the top six commenters on my blog. Here are the other five, all authors and/or poets in their own right:
Thank you all for your feedback!

Many thanks to author and blogger Sally Cronin for another guest appearance. I’ve already shared blog posts, as well as book promotions and excerpts, with Sally, and now I’ve had a chance to share the poet side of me.
If you’re a poet looking to promote your poetry, or an author looking for opportunities to promote your book(s), I highly recommend you get in touch with Sally.

Kindle, paperback, or hardcover link on Amazon, Goodreads, and personal site?
Alle C. Hall is the author of a highly acclaimed novel, and I once had the pleasure of working alongside her in the online magazine JMWW‘s nonfiction editorial staff.
She answers questions asked to her related to writing, publishing, and marketing on her blog, and I recently had one for her that had been on my mind. Here are her answers:
I’d already had paperback links on my website’s pages, but I’ve updated Goodreads to have Kindle editions as the main ones, and I’ve also learned that unless you are the first author listed in an anthology, you can’t set the main edition in Goodreads.
If you have a question of your own, consider reaching out to Alle for an answer.

Guest Post with Jan Sikes
Many thanks to author Jan Sikes for this opportunity to promote my fantasy books as well as discussing knowing when to stop (and no, I don’t mean writing).
