So, as a published author, I can't imagine having to go on a real book tour or having a bustling book release party. All of the traveling and sitting and signing would probably drive me nuts (although I hope to do it someday!) But for now, since I'm not famous and nobody knows me enough to want to host a book signing, I will settle for virtual tours and book launches. As a matter of fact I had a 12 hour long (10 with breaks) Virtual Release Party yesterday. Oh my goodness was it fun! But dang, I never imagined how tiring it could be. Every hour on the hour (except for 4pm and 6pm) I had to be there to post something new. Pictures, excerpts, buy links, sneak peeks etc.

I also like some of the reactions I had to my excerpts and plotlines for future books. My email and message box were blowing up! Yesterday was one of the biggest highs I've ever had. It was truthfully a glorious day. Now to see how it affects sales, if at all. The next few days will be a test to see if I feel happy or disappointed. But even if I do feel disappointed, there will still be an element of happiness because I am writing, I am sharing what I love, and I am having one hell of a time doing it.
I am me - I am broken, I am blogger, I am author, I am happy!
Thanks everyone for your support.
Until Next Time...Sometimes the best days exhaust us, but you shouldn't let that take away from your joy. Bask in the exhaustion, knowing that you have done something wonderful.
