Allie, will your book be in KU or not?

Not a Strong Enough Word has a cover!!! Well, it has had a cover for a while now. But it’s officially out in the world, which means ARC applications have officially opened and pre-orders have officially started and… AHHH.

But the number one thing I am getting asked after my post about Amazon a few weeks ago is, “Allie, will you put Not a Strong Enough Word in Kindle Unlimited?” So let’s talk about it.

So you want to cancel Amazon…

Let’s explore the topic of cancelling Kindle Unlimited (which will henceforth be referred to as KU) and participating in economic blackouts for a little while today, shall we? Because, frankly, as someone who has been working hard to scale up my author business, this stuff makes me really nervous.

I am strong enough.

To say I am obsessed with my new book (that I just finished!!!) would be an understatement. I told my bestie/booth b*tch/emotional support extrovert the other day that Not a Strong Enough Word is the book I wish I had the emotional bandwidth to write while I was writing The Write Place. I hid for a while within the safety of the lighthearted rom-com genre, but now that I’ve busted out into more emotional territory, I kind of wonder if I’ll be able to go back.

I had one goal this year.

I had only one goal this year, and like the subtitle says, I’ve already tried to give up on it several times. In my defense, January felt like a whole year in and of itself, so actually…

No. We’re not making excuses, we’re making progress. But today, I want to talk about that goal as it pertains to writing and *gasp* politics.
