    As always, thanks everyone for the interest and encouragement! Here's a quickie update... Sales of Previous Books: They've dropped off considerably, but are still nothing to complain about. With all three books combined, I'm still selling over 30/books a day on Amazon, and another 30/day on...

    I seriously can't wait for the next book. I've read the first book a handful of times and have recommended it more times than I can count. Speaking of book two, I've got an idea...Instead of saying that I must write faster. I should say, "M.J. must write faster..."

    No ego. Merely an effort (obviously a useless effort given your limited social skills, but hey, a girl can try...) to discourage your practice of attacking those who don't agree with you. For the record, I've enjoyed most of these posts, even those that express a different opinion than mine...

    F*ck you, dipshit. The link and information I provided was from the World Health Organization. No matter how you feel about it, this was a thought-provoking debate...until..someone like you tries to shut down discourse with profanity-laden attacks. So right back atcha, asswipe.

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    So what's your theory? (Not being snarky. It's a serious question.) Do you think that Duncan didn't infect anyone? All that bodily fluid flying around, and no one got sick from it? Even if all he had was the flu, this seems unlikely to me. Here's my theory: Others have been infected and...

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    Yup, and here's a little insight on government announcements: I can tell you firsthand, government agencies "embargo" certain announcements. Embargo is a fancy way of saying, "We're going to announce this, but not yet." Maybe they want to get their story straight. Maybe some of the details are...

    Normalcy Bias: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalcy_bias A mental state people enter when facing a disaster. It causes people to underestimate both the possibility of a disaster occurring and its possible effects. This may result in situations where people fail to adequately prepare for a...

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    Yes. Which means that if someone with Ebola sneezes on you, you're in danger of being infected. Or if some fevered Ebola patient is sweating in an emergency-room chair, and you happen to sit in that chair next, you're in danger of being infected. Or some Ebola patient wipes their nose with their...

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    I wasn't worried about the bird flu. I wasn't worried about the swine flu. With Ebola, yeah, I'm worried. No matter what the nice men in hazmat suits say, this thing is obviously a lot more contagious than they're admitting. This isn't AIDS, where you practically have to exchange semen or blood...

    Awwww...I don't know what delights me more -- your confidence in my presentation abilities or the fact you called me kid. Thanks so much for that! I was looking at this event longingly, but I'm almost certainly going to have to pass, along with the Insider Call option, for about six to nine...

    Yup! The BookBub promo has officially occurred, and had some nice results. I sold about 1,000 of my promoted title within a couple of days, and have had a noticeable (although not overly dramatic) sales bump on my other titles during the promotion and afterwards. During the promotion, my rank...

    A pulp writer's tidal wave

    PUBLISHING 
    Don't let this discourage you. Sadly, only a very, VERY small percentage of book-buyers leave a review. You may want to try giving away copies to friends or family and ask for reviews from them to get the ball rolling. Congrats on your progress so far!

    Millennials are Jerks, And Boomers Are to Blame

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    For anyone who's interested, there's an awesome book that discusses generational dynamics and theorizes why our country/world is in a state of crisis right now. And yes, I DO think it's in a state of crisis. We've got exploding debt, shattered social structures, and some really crappy behavior...

    What do you guys think of Jordan Belfort?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    The people being swindled might be naive, but when you take advantage of a superior position to lie/cheat/steal, you're not naive, you're a criminal bastard who gives all genuinely wealthy/successful people a bad name. I'm probably just getting crusty in my old age, but it seems to me that some...
