Chris McMullen: Read Tuesday, Black Friday

I’d like to introduce those of you haven’t heard about Read Tuesday to this spectacular event!

I’d like to thank Jennifer, Writings of a Mrs., for the opportunity to do this guest post. (*my pleasure Chris*)

The problem with Black Friday for book sales:

Every year when Black Friday arrives, customers do plenty of shopping, buying products for themselves and gifts for others. Stores offer enticing discounts, at least on select products, and shoppers stand in lines for hours before the stores even open. Continue reading →

GrammoWriMo

As you probably know, hundreds of thousands of writers sign up for National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) each year — essentially volunteering to write one 50,000-word novel from scratch in a month’s time. That’s a lot of writing for authors who may want to participate in NaNoWriMo, but are running short on free time. (Like ME)

Have you all heard about the Grammarly Group writing project coming up this November?

If not take a look.

They plan to organize the largest group of authors to ever collaborate on a novel; they’re calling the project #GammoWriMo.

For more information on this unique and oh so creative opportunity please check out the link I provided below.

Happy writing to you all!

29 Days, 11,000 hits. 1,800 followers (1,100 from Word Press!) Read this if you are interested in Pay it Forward Thursdays. PAY DAY

Hey everyone.

One of my New Years Resolutions was to start a blog and to write. It was also to go the gym regularly but that didn’t last too long! The blogging, well I am almost one month into it now and I have no intention of slowing down. I’m loving writing and the blogging community and starting projects like PAY DAY

That being said I started a google + (writingsofamrs Jennifer) account with a You Tube Channel. Here is the address to the Channel it is still under construction but please feel free to sign up (however you do that!?) http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCr13m4Cz8ZUgelYk1Lokudw . The primary reason for this is for the ‘release’ or ‘debut’ of Rays rendition song Gravy Baby, along with any other future projects. Please bare with me because I really am walking in the dark trying to make all of this happen. I really appreciate all of your support and encouragement. If anyone has any helpful info for me on how to manage the You Tube channel etc that would be excellent!

I will be posting an intro video followed by Rays video that you can link to through my blog in my PAY DAY Thursday post around 2:00 pm my time. I will give more info about the upcoming Thursdays collaborations along with some other general information.

I’m looking for other song writers, musicians, DJ’s, performers etc to collaborate with so if you know anyone that might be interested please have them contact me! But make sure that they read my original Pay Day post first. ( I don’t need any emails with people asking me for money!) Any one else that would like to participate please contact me by email, it’s easier for me to keep on top of it that way. writingsofamrs@outlook.com

Thank you again for all of your inquiries. I am doing my best to keep on top of responding to all of the emails and to also keep on top of my comments and my posts and engaging with the Word Press community!
