Day 300 writing tip, October 27th, 2026 ✍️ BOOK LAUNCH DAY Happy Book Launch Day to all who celebrate. When I woke up, my husband wrote this note on my computer, and I feel like I can do anything. And on day 300! So how does a writer get to this day? If you've made it past... 1. The Manuscript of Madness 2. Through the tunnel of "I don't love this phase" editing. 3. Past the last round of "Who wants to hide this manuscript under the mattresses and tell no one." 4. To, okay, I might actually do this. 5. But wait, where did that spelling error come from? Then you might be ready to launch the book out into the known universe. You might feel like you are never ready. You will be. What if no one reads it? Maybe, but you can always gift everyone a copy at the Holidays and Birthdays. The point. 🪅It's day 300 of writing these tips. 🪅Every day, showing up and saying something that might help someone, just as they help me. 🪅Michael and I planned to release this particular book about 3 years ago, and we're finally getting here. 🪅Knowing this book is not like the others. 🪅Knowing we kept the integrity of Michael's voice. 🪅Knowing it's a book guys might want to read, too. 1. You can get there if this is your road. 2. Take one day at a time. 3. Let us celebrate with you on your own launch day. There are only 65 days left this year. Let's make the most of it. Stephanie King Ari Press.

Help us celebrate Tony's Book Birthday and actual Birthday by liking, sharing, and/or purchasing your copy of his book. It's a mix of Stranger Things, Narnia, a circus, and something all its own. Anabel and her friends meet a mysterious stranger just as an age-old darkness returns to this small Idaho town. Will they stop the darkness before it's too late?

We have a launch! You can pre-order on Kindle NOW. (Link in comments.) Or sign up for our newsletter so you won't miss the release details on October 27th, 2026. (Link in profile.)

When someone says (cough, Gerwig), they read what Lewis read... Chesterton was oft quoted and respected, and read by Lewis. This is one author he read. The Collected Works of G.K. Chesterton, published by Ignatius Press, planned 48 volumes and published 23, of which I have one. These aren't even his books. Small print, about 600 pages. What about reading all of Lewis work? If you only take his published works while alive, that's about 34 books. What about non-books? That's about 215 shorter essays, sermons, and reviews. One of my favorites is "Vivisection." If you want authority on Lewis, get it from Lewis. Not someone trying to convince you they are the authority on the works, when you can just read the works for yourself. READ IN 2027 "Chronicles of Narnia." "Safe?" said Mr Beaver... "Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you." (C. S. Lewis).
