Exciting Developments at the Awesome Indies

May 7, 2014 by Tahlia Newland

The Awesome Indies website has had a renovation. We’re still working on the fine points, but the blog content to match the exciting new look is starting now.

From now on you’ll see:

  • Shorter posts
  • Lots of images
  • More variety of topics
  • A focus on getting to know our authors and their books in a variety of ways
  • We’ll still post reviews, of course, but only on books that you would want to read.

The weekly schedule in general will look like this:

  • Friday Feature: author spotlight posts and special focus posts.
  • Saturday: vlogs and other videos—trailers, chapter readings and so on.
  • Sunday: Author Snapshots—photos submitted by authors along with a paragraph of explanation. Each post will have contributions from several authors in response to various topics. The first topic is ‘Where I Write.’
  • Monday: Review, or guest post by one of our authors.
  • Tuesday: Review, or guest post by one of our authors.
  • Wednesday: Writing Wednesday—posts on writing. The aim of these posts is to educate readers and authors on how to recognise a quality book and what authors need to do produce quality.
  • Thursday: review, or guest post by one of our authors.

 

This week’s schedule.

  • Friday:  Author Snapshots—Where I Write
  • Saturday & Sunday: Peticular Posts—authors and their pets

Pop on over and see the new look Awesome Indies.

 

A big thank you to Awesome Indies Graphic Artist and Web Designer, Ruthanne Reid.

Ruthanne Reid writes unique and excellent fantasy. I’ve read both The Sundered and The Christmas Dragon, and really enjoyed them both. Ruthanne has lived on both US coasts, owns dust-covered degrees in music and religion, and has a serious thing for popcorn. Her love of Middle Earth, deep spaces, and things that go bump in the night birthed a strange filled with aliens and magic, all of which is only enhanced by living in the wild city of Seattle.

Currently Available Works:

The Sundered (http://bit.ly/sunderedkindle) The Christmas Dragon (http://bit.ly/thechristmasdragon) Strings (free, being released serially: (http://bit.ly/stringsbook)

Hi I’m Tahlia Newland

I can help you express yourself and share your story with the world.

 

Do you want to write a really good story and have it professionally polished and published?

As an editor, I help you be the best writer you can possibly be. I strengthen your voice, support your vision and can assist you all the way to publication.

On my blog you’ll find book reviews, writer’s tips, contemplative articles on meditation and working with your mind, and occaisonally pictures of my Burmese cats.

If you’re interested mostly in my contemplative articles then  Sign up to the Living in Peace & Clarity Newsletter to get those articles delivered by email. And check out the resources on my Living in Peace and Clarity Page.

I do a lot of community work involving blogging and general support for Buddhist students processing revelations of abuse in their spiritual communities.  Please consider supporting me to continue this work.

Occiasonally, when inspired and not too busy with community work, I make masks.
