If not, at least you have alternatives and things can work out that way.<br /><br />Yeah, BrendaLynn, I saw that about Google+. Nothing is more constant than change these days.<br /><br />On a reading note, I'm two-thirds through THE CHALK MAN, a 2018 debut from C.J. Tudor, and it's fantastic. If you're looking for a first-rate suspense/thriller, you'll find it here. If I'm not mistaken, someone from the most recent flash contest took home the latest CJ Tudor work, which I'll have to find at my local bookstore soon.<br /><br />Keep writing!<br />John Davis Frainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18020019400599228492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-63697599660332656562019-02-02T14:38:07.491-05:002019-02-02T14:38:07.491-05:00Stories like this, and reports of mayhem, discoura...Stories like this, and reports of mayhem, discourage neophytes like myself. Books have been around a long time, though, so we have to trust that they’ll hang on a little longer. <br />Google plus tells me they are closing out all accounts, so I will be appearing in another form shortly.

Next day a bankruptcy notice regarding my (midsize) indie publisher and instructions not to communicate with then under any circumstances. Bad experience for first book. I will not publish now without an agent...I had no recourse and no one to turn to for next steps.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02242520666304340173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-41409240659113727722019-02-02T10:24:45.240-05:002019-02-02T10:24:45.240-05:00It's a little scary to see how many things can...It's a little scary to see how many things can go wrong in a writing career.
