“You don’t say much, do you?” I asked, exhaling some smoke. A breeze picked up and blew some of the smoke from my mouth over to her face.

Fourth read of the years no particular order. Writing Into The Dark by #deanWesleySmith.
Mind blown. Writing process shocked.
Time to rethink how I've been writing novels.
Mind the cat, she's hungry as always.

One last announcement for the year: a new website! Check it out at konnlavery.com. link in bio.
Some of the new features to the site are:
- A complete publications list
- FAQ page
- Revamped Novel Page With Extra Goodies Per Book
- A Wiki (Encyclopedia)
The wiki is the largest new section to the site. It is a living archives of the worlds, characters, locations, and more, found within the novels. There are lots of articles to add still, but it is fully populated with information from Mental Damnation and some found within YEGman and Seed Me.
Enjoy the new site!

Another read this year, no particular order. Journey to the Summit by Saher Ghattas of @flawlessinbound.
The inbound marketing book is encased within a fictional story of a marketing manager's challenges with effective marketing in the digital world, pitching to bosses who dont see the value, and providing actual results.
It is primarily focused for larger organizations and for marketing managers as the sub title says.
Still, lots of info packed in the book and worth the read if you're not sure where to begin with online marketing. Or understand the theory behind it.
I've made notes, and I'll be applying some in the new year.

Another read this year. No particular order. Factfulness by Hans Rosling.
Digs deep into world statistics in various subjects, how to read stats, misleading news headlines, and more.
Well worth the read to get a better sense of asking the right questions.
