May 21, 2016...Write, write, write is my mantra.

     Writing has filled the air. Just look at book stores on the street or on the internet. Writing groups are popping up all over each state.  Whether self-publishing (do it yourself) or paying a traditional publisher, which is fading, many new books are also popping up all over.  The rumor is some well known writers are self-publishing, because royalties are higher then traditional publishing payouts.  
     But there are those who feel going the traditional route will be a better path to take as a writer.  Times are changing and many are jumping on the band wagon to help a new or seasoned writer to self-publish. New writers might have a hard time setting their word files up to be downloaded to print-on-demand companies, so new companies are offering their expertise at a price.
     It is a toss up on which way to go.  Some writers are lucky to be noticed while self-publishing or traditionally publishing.  It is up to the individual's choice which avenue they want to take.  To be continued.......
