The Joys of Networking

It’s a busy time for authors to market their books in a hectic Christmas season. Yet, we do it anyway.

Since we work from home, I wonder if we all enjoy the interaction. I certainly do because it keeps me from isolation. We relocated to North Carolina from Californian in 2020 during Covid. Our friends are our family here and our neighbors. The way I feel attached to humanity daily is on social media.

I’m sharing a link to a Zoom interview posted on YouTube with Author Deena Adams. We had connected online, and we mutually enjoyed chatting onscreen for the first time. I hope you learn something interesting and new about us both.

Isn’t it astonishing how the worldwide web of tech communications has linked strangers together? And God is with us there as well.

I agree. I am often tempted to feel “ashamed” that so much of my interaction is digital, because it still has a stigma attached to it. The fact is, it’s very much a part of our world, and God can use it any way he wants. Of course it doesn’t replace face to face interaction, but it certainly has its own merits! I have friends all over the world!

  I agree. It felt strange at first to have “friends” I’d never met face-to-face, but I decided it was the way to meet more people!

Coffee imbiber, chocolate connoisseur (sugar free please, so I don’t have to give it up), and the studier of personalities. My current book series of 3 is historical fiction inspired by my quirky great grandfather on my dad’s side of the family tree. On October 27, 2024, The BookFest Awards bestowed First Place in General Historical Fiction upon it! Stunningly unexpected.

Book 2 focuses on his sister’s life, and Book 3 reveals some of his son’s life.

According to many rumors, authors never stop learning. I’m studying and reading cozy mysteries for future projects. I’ve convinced myself I’ve adjusted to the black hole of writing and the author’s life. Why not add more challenges? What could happen?

Glad you’ve visited my site, and hope you’re intrigued enough for us to connect further on social media.
