My Continuing Office Organization Project

Cleaner desk!

Unfortunately, it didn’t quite stay that way.

Clearly, I need a better system. That’s what I’m trying to develop now.

Where I’m At Now

03/10/2026 by Debbi

 

Hey, hi. How you doing? I guess you could call this a life update. There were auditions this weekend for the short film that I’m making called “Surprise,” and it’s just amazing how much talent there is in this area. Acting talent, writing talent, filming talent, you name it, it’s there. Anyway, I posed a question at some point on Substack, I guess. I did it on Patreon, too, I think.

But I was just going to say, sometimes I feel distinctly like, maybe I’m not the best person to teach people about self-publishing because what’s out there, I mean, if you’re focused on Amazon, if you want to become a bestseller on Amazon, I can’t help you. I haven’t the faintest clue how I managed to get where I did during that time period that I happened to be big enough in terms of sales to make a living off of what I was doing.

Meet Debbi

Welcome to my writers' corner of the Internet. I'm a novelist, who also writes short stories and screenplays. I hope to share the benefit of my experiences as an indie author with dystonia since 2009. I also post a lot of book reviews, because I love to read and learn new things. I hope to share that knowledge with you.
