So...I published a book! :D
« on: May 17, 2015, 12:51:20 PM »
I've been writing poetry since I learned how to write and finally this year I managed to publish 200 of my poems into a book!
Please check out my facebook page for the book/my writings if you want:
https://www.facebook.com/LindaHolmgrenAuthor

And for those of you who live in Sweden, you can buy my book online here:
http://www.adlibris.com/se/bok/escapism-9789175177076

The rest of you will have to contact me personally if you're interested in buying it :D

I'm still not really sure how I got the courage to publish it xD
I'm still not sure how my family reacts to the poems, since my poems are kind of harsh...and very personal...and they never read any of my work before they decided to support me by buying their own copies xD
Still I haven't had any negative responses from any of my family members though.

So yeah, pony people, it would be nice with some support from you aswell. Liking my FB page would be awesome, if you can't buy my book :)
I'm also writing new pieces and posting it on my instagram, if you want a taste:

It looks like you're not on Goodreads yet! I'm a Goodreads librarian, so if you want I can add your book to the system! Here's a link to my account: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/2384499-kirsten-rodning If you want, just send me your info (especially the book's ISBN) and a picture of the book's cover and I can make the page for it (and then add it to my to-read list!).

Congrats on your publication, by the way! The title makes it sound especially enticing. :D

Edit: Never mind! I found the information! Here's the Goodreads page for your book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25555792-escapism And you can claim the author page by clicking on your name, then going down to the bottom of the page and clicking where it says, "Is this you?" Goodreads is a great way to promote your book (as long as you don't annoy people when you do it by trying to friend everyone in sight -- a lot of authors try to do this and no one wants to be friends with them!).

I am so envious of all of the pony people with the courage to publish!  I'm currently putting the pre-beta reader polish on the first novel I wrote 11 (!!) years ago and am sooooo nervous, lol!  Big congrats!  I wish you the best :)

Well done on all of your hard work!  It is very hard to get work published these days so I take my hat off to you :D
