A New Blog for a New Day

Hiya,
This is my new blog. Some of you might remember a few of my old blogs - Wild Moon Swings, or Ghost Mist. There's still up. I'll probably post some links to them, but I won't be adding any new posts. Sorry about that. Time to move on.

Anyway, today I get to introduce myself as myself. In the past I've always been Sapphirefly, but since my writing is progressing I get to go by a real name instead of a quirky alias, so I'll be Stephanie from now on. Weird eh? I'll bet y'all thought my name was something less popular in the eighties. Also, eventually, I'll probably have a picture of myself on this sucker. Which strikes me as even weirder since I've enjoyed the freedom of anonymity for so long. Then you'll all know how old I am, how much I weigh and all those things I've liked keeping to myself all these years. But it's also a relief in some ways since I've had lots of readers write in and sometimes I've wanted to make better friends with them. So, this is my chance. I love meeting people for the first time.

You know what this means as well. It means that I finally worked my way out of epublishing Hell and found a company to work with. That's a relief too. It means that although I didn't get a book available for sale before my high school reunion, I did get it worked out before I turned thirty. Close call, eh?

For now, we'll just go with the news. I'm Stephanie and I don't have to print copies of my book in my basement to sell on ebay. Instead they'll be for sale in very ordinary places, like Amazon, to name one. I haven't done a blog in awhile because I've been exceptionally busy, so I've been saving up topics to write about. Stop by again and I'll talk about the bookshelf by my bed.

Cut Like Glass

One of the things I really enjoy writing is novelettes.  I wish I had discovered them sooner.  They are SO MUCH FUN! 'Cut Like Glass'...
