I can't resist updating this thread today - because today is the two-year anniversary of the start of my indie publishing career, and it all started with the upload of Rottweiler Rescue, a finished novel that had won the mystery division of the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers annual contest and attracted interest of agents and editors but had also made me realize I didn't want to pursue traditional publishing.
I did that upload without the trepidation that affects a lot of indies but without much expectation either. Selling a few copies would be better than letting the book rot on my computer hard drive.
As it turned out that was a decision that changed my whole life for the better. I'm now working on a sequel to Rottweiler Rescue, admittedly belatedly as I got distracted by my romance novels. But I am determined to get that sequel, Rottweiler Railroad, out soon and not to be diverted again.
