What Happened in Oct 2022

Posted on November 8, 2022November 8, 2022 by lmeyer

Introduction

Good Morning, the month of October was spent working on my first draft of my current work in progress. I made a lot of headway this month, but still on my first draft and I gave myself a deadline of Dec. 31, 2022. This goal is still realistic and I’m going to stick to it. It is a contemporary romance. That’s all I can say right now, it’s different. It’s different from what I’ve written, it’s different from what others have written. 

The Norwalk Public Library hosted their event on November 4th & 5th to promote indie authors. Cynde Lahey, the Librarian hosted the 2-day in-person event. The event turned out to be an in-person and they recorded them and posted it on YouTube. All the events she had scheduled had at least 4 authors in person and an in-person audience. I guess they decided they didn’t need to do anymore Zoom hybrid events, if they have everyone in person. I sent in a couple of give-aways where I printed a color copy of my ebooks and typed up a note inside which contained a blurb about the ebook and a special code they can redeem on Amazon for a free copy of my ebook. The librarian can use it for a swag-bag and it’s free advertising only if they are on display for a couple of days. I will be watching if they get redeemed.

Story

I scrapped the TikTok silly videos and need to work on #booktok videos. I’m trying to learn how to edit my videos and make some that I can promote my ebook. It’s free advertising.

We welcomed our first grandson into our family October and flew back East to meet him, so very cute and precious. We already made plans to return. The days were spent with our grandson and the evenings, I got the chance to have dinner with old friends.

Conclusion

In November I’m looking forward to attending an Elton John concert. It has been a while since we’ve been to a concert. My husband and I will make a date night out of it and eat at our favorite restaurant downtown San Diego and then head to the concert. I’m excited about that and looking forward to it. My husband and I attended an Elton John concert back 2002 in Madison Square Garden. (If my memory serves me) and that is the day and the place where he first told me he loved me.

I am still researching and learning more about audiobooks. I started following some of the TikTok creators who go LIVE and I like to watch them read the book to us and how they make the recording and re-record over and over sometimes. I want to look into recording them myself. I will need a mic, a pop-filter (that round thing in front of the mike) and a quiet room. I think it’s worth more of my time to launch this as my next type of media and wait on the physical book formats until last. We will have to see. I’m not crazy about my own voice and have been looking into voice filters.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families.

Until next month.

All my best,

Lorri
