So many changes are going on right now in my world of being an author. With one of my publisher's closing down, its left me with a lot of options. And after much consideration, I've decided to take the two stories, Sarah's Chase and Finding Home and go the self-publishing route. Each of these books had a partner book that was getting ready to release. And the last thing I wanted to do was have to put all of these stories on hold. Also, I had a short story in the Love, Again anthology, titled Wanted: Wife. The story was a big success and I think I am going to turn this short story into a full-length! I have to wait for Sarah's Chase to finish out in the current KDP program its in on Amazon and then I will get the rights back. Also, I have the rights back to Finding Home and I hope to have a new cover soon. My goal is for Finding Home to be available to read again by the end of next week. I of course have had to change names, the city the book takes place, and a few other details since it will no longer be a part of the Clearwater Series. The new series is The Brookfield Series. And I'm thrilled to be starting my own sweet series and to have full control of them.
This is a big step for me. And I can't wait to see where this journey takes me! It might be a bit of a bumpy road, but I've got the shocks to handle it. :) As I have more details, I will let you know.

I think you'll do great Lacey. I started out self-publishing, and I get a decent stream of income from those stories (sometimes more than I get from trad published ones!) Also - I kept the stress and formatting issues to a minimum, and am only at Amazon, and I still do really well. Good luck!

I hear you. One of my publishers, while not closing, is going through a massive overhaul in terms of upper management, and a lot of the authors are dissatisfied with communication, among other things. This has led me to consider self-publishing.

Best of luck, Lacey! Right now, the indie/self-pub route for authors is wide open. Six or seven years ago, my hubby (then-boyfriend) and I were sitting in a cafe admiring art for sale by a local artist, and I was bemoaning the fact that authors don't really have the ability to sell their work independently. Today, publishing is a whole new world. I look forward to reading more about your adventures! :)
