What do YOU guys want to hear about?

By Susan | Published: March 18, 2013

So, I had a CRAZY weekend. I mean crazy with a capital “C” and “Razy”. As such, I didn’t get a chance to think up some nice content for today’s blog post. I thought I’d just open the floor to comment-questions. Do YOU have any questions for ME? Or topics you want to read about? Feel [...]

Pub(lishing) Crawl: Books That Inspire

By Susan | Published: March 11, 2013

Hello, everyone! We have a slightly different week for you–a week of paying forward all the many blessings we here at Pub(lishing) Crawl have had.

Thank you…take 2

By Susan | Published: July 31, 2012

So…one week has passed. I’m not sure how it happened… One moment it was the 24th, then ten bazillion tweets, interviews, guest posts, Pinterest pins, emails, and loving comments later, it was suddenly the 31st. I have never, ever, EVER felt so much love. Truly, you all made the book’s release day (and the days [...]

Thank you

By Susan | Published: July 24, 2012

Sorry: This post is very long. I tried to bold people’s names so they could find their own particular “thank you” more easily.

And that’s alright; I found a martyr in my bed tonight

By Susan | Published: July 18, 2012

So, I’m back from Comic-Con, jet-lagged into a zombie state, and desperately wanting to give you all the fabulous lowdown on the Amazinginess That Is The Con. Thing is, the Convention was amazing, but not for any of the reasons I expected. Sure, I saw some celebrities (and my Soul Twin Sarah shook Alexander Skaarsgard’s HAND. [...]
