TINKERING WITH WORDPRESS 🛠️🤔😥👌 #BloggingCommunity

To my WordPress friends: Over the past year, I’ve made many new blogging connections and I’m thrilled about that! What’s not so thrilling is that my self-hosted wordpress.org site seems to be less user-friendly than some on wordpress.com. To that end, I’ve been tinkering madly with the inner workings of The Doglady’s Den to make it more accessible… TINKERING WITH WORDPRESS 🛠️🤔😥👌 #dogladysden…

The Thorny Issue of Wordpress Likes?

Do you ever feel Liking guilt?I know if I’ve had a particularly busy period I feel guilt for not liking the posts of the bloggers who follow and like my posts.  Therefore, often I’m playing catchup trying to make sure I haven’t missed any. WordPress stops me likingIn playing catch-up I often run foul of WordPress’s arbitrary limit on liking so I leave the site and try again later. Does anyone…

WordPress Reader vs Website: How Do You View Blogs?

If you have time to just drop a one-word comment, I’d love to know if you are viewing this post in WordPress Reader or actually on my website (or somewhere else?). I’m wondering how many people see the blog and the blog posts the way I design them, or if they just see them the homogenous way WP makes them all appear. I spend a lot of time crafting how my blog website appears, but I realize a lot…

WORDPRESS FAIL?

It was 2022 when it happened before, confirmed by my old Tweet.

What's going on? Well, after being chased down by book editors (on demand), I decided to put things on Wattpad. That's right, all the books will be able to be read over there as well as here (though I have a feeling more people will end up going over there more so than here or over to WordPress.

I need to explain the Woodland Realm Literary Universe.

So, what this means that if sometime down the road in the future, should a character have their story told, it will be under this umbrella. Of course, this only applies to characters within the TKWRT Trilogy and its 3 standalone novels (which have their beginning within the trilogy (@tkwrtsongofsevenrivers @oflordsandkingstkwrtbook) and the upcoming Loremasters.

Since all the stories are interlocked (kind of like the MCU), this made the work easier to follow. This means that am leaving things somewhat open-ended when the current books are complete. I have been working on these things for nearly 10 years now. It seems like only yesterday I debuted on Tumblr with The Saga of Thranduil. What was supposed to be a brief story in the life of the Mirkwood Elves have become a franchise onto itself (not associated with Rings of Power--that rumor* can die now).

*Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out how that one happened. It reached all the way to my estranged family. Now, I'm attached to another rumor for another project I am writing (@thesecretofthehouseofbourbonbook @lesecretdelamaisondubourbon)--You don't even want to know about that one.

You'll hear about it eventually.

Either way, 2024 will be extremely busy as I forge ahead alone on two major projects that one day (with any luck) will see the publication my readers desperately want to see. I'm excited, personally; after the horrific events that nearly took me away from my work that were put upon me by my own family, I want to move beyond the past and into the future. My only saving grace has been writing. Thank you for your patience and patronage for the past 9+ years.

By the way: Legolas (@trenarnolegolaslasgalen) just made his debut on Wattpad. There is more to come with him, I was just setting up the pages over Christmas with limited internet. That's what is like living under conservatorship--they only give you the bare minimum to survive.

More to come...

On writing and emotions

The extremes are working in my favour today. A condolence, to the passing time; a moment trapped in a second. The alphabets are confused, yet they speak for themselves. Then there are emotions. My feelings flooding the gates of my well being. A metamorphosis. An evolution. Most of life is tied to an emotion- to a span, feeble. A moment of indecisiveness. Here are my attempts, to write…

Joy = Reading

Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life. It might sound like that’s all, but hey, reading brings joy to my days. I do escape reality with them, and even if it is not a fantasy one, it still is better to go in and spent hours in it, although sometimes I can’t read for that long, unless I decide to set work aside and life, and everything because the plot is way too good to…

Back in Action: Updates, Titles, and What’s Next!

🎉 I'm back! After some time away (and a WordPress fiasco), I’m thrilled to share updates on my sequel to Rabbit Fever! The title is official: Feral Ambitions 😈 Check out my latest blog post for all the details! #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Books #Book

Hello everyone! It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Apologies for my disappearing act—there’s been quite a bit going on behind the scenes. First, I got locked out of my WordPress account (don’t ask—it’s a long, slightly bizarre story). Apparently, someone tried to access it, though why they’d be interested in my blog, I’ve no idea! Anyway, this led to a frustrating stretch of password failures,…

I know it has been a while, but if you only knew what I have to go through regularly, you would understand why it takes me so long to do anything. I will go into that on another day. It is special because today, the world gets the first look at Book II: The Saga of Thranduil--Extended Version.

If you are a member of the Facebook Group, then you can get it there. If you are not, you will have to go here. It will be available in both places from now until November 7, 2023. It would be appreciated if you would leave a comment on this thread about whether you liked it or not because I sent it out for beta readers for a reason.

I have been in talks with a lot of publishers on demand who want to publish this book. One of them overzealously wanted to turn the book into a Netflix series. (do not ask). I would rather film the story in order, which begins with @tkwrtrilogy3. At over 1200 pages (currently), the entire trilogy is long enough to have a television show (but I would want it to include @oflordsandkingstkwrtbook and @tkwrtsongofsevenrivers). I am aware of that. To be honest, I would like to be the one to write the script as I also know how to do that (from experience). But, because my stepsister (Roseann Grotjan) stuck me into a Britney Spears situation, I do not have access to my money or any way to negotiate the publication of any of my books (and I have several) on my own, so this is going take a while. I have millions of adoring fans willing to scare the BeJesus out of her in order to get their favorite book in print and onscreen.

But. someone leaked to me what a perspective book cover of The Saga of Thranduil would look like. I will post one of the mock-ups because seriously, who is going to notice? It is a mock-up, so it is not a final design. Also, I didn't choose it. It was chosen for me to persuade me to choose this particular company. There are at least seven or eight of these people trying to persuade me to publish this book. One of them has actually read the book, and it made them cry.

They want to sell it in hardcover and paperback. Wouldn't that be nice? My bestie (@fortunatelyclevercandy) wants me to wait. I will not tell you why because I know why, and I'm about to do what she asked me to do. I want literally no FREE PR around it.

Oh, that is a lot I know. But if it were not for my stepsister, the state of Missouri, and the crappy hellhole they put me in the middle of nowhere with shitty internet (on purpose), I would be farther along, and everybody probably would have several copies of this book series by now. The moral of my story is: do not trust your family after your father dies and leaves you some money. They might just get the idea in their head to take it from you to make $20/hour as your guardian by claiming that you're crazy when you just asked them about your own trust fund. But I digress.

Enjoy The Saga of Thranduil--Extended Version. You will be the ones who will decide which version of this story gets published. You will be the ones that will make it possible to see the Elvenking's life story in a book store, online, or even on Netflix.
