Hi, I’m going to talk a little more about my indie author journey. Before I go on too much about things like Amazon or ebooks or anything else, I just want to talk about health, because health is extremely important in whatever you’re doing. And these days I see so many articles about how stressed out we are, that there is a crying need for people to think about their health right now. And there has been for some time, I think.

Tips for Saving Money in the Internet Age

02/28/2017 by Debbi

Staying on a budget can be a difficult proposition under the best of circumstances. Today, keeping one’s spending under control is more difficult than ever, due to the ease and temptation of succumbing to online offers. However, based on my own sad experiences with this, let me offer the following tips for saving money.

First, let me ask you a question. How often have you seen something like this: “Although we cannot guarantee results, our app/online course/method generated us a six-figure income.

But we need you to buy it by tomorrow, because after that this offer goes away forever.” Now, raise your hand if you’ve ever fallen for these lines. Don’t be ashamed if you have. I know I have.

12/27/2016 by Debbi

If nothing else, it has taught me a thing or two about what not to spend time and money on.

So, I’ve set up a challenge for myself this coming year. I intend to start with a monthly budget and go from there.

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.
