He contributed much to the genre. In a great tribute, on the October 20th episode of the Mando Method Podcast, Armand Rosamilia and Chuck Buda share fun stories about Jay on their trips to book conventions. He was always positive, encouraging of other writers, and a funny character. He is sorely missed. Condolences to his family, friends, and fans.
Breaking News: The Six Figure Authors podcast is winding down. They’ve been a great resource for over two years, but you know what they say about all good things.
But fear not! We still have the Mondo Method! Speaking of which…
Armand and Chuck hit some fun highlights. They discussed leveraging the Pareto Principle, getting (and not getting reviews), and the quality of reviews. (Hint: One-star, no comment = terrible.)
My thanks go out to Armand and Chuck for tackling a bunch of key points.The blog post in question has 70 pithy bullet points about the ups, downs, and challenges of writing for a living. If you missed it, catch it here and let me know what stands out for you.
(They’re fun, and no, Armand never actually slaps Chuck.)
Do you dig alien invasions? I just got a copy of my latest paperback (alsoavailable in ebook and hardcover).See the latest review of Our Alien Hours (below):
These stories brought me back to my childhood and my love of science fiction movies from the ’50s and ’60s. While reading, I loved that familiar feeling of fear, doom, and hopelessness. Each of the stories can standalone, but I love the way they are all connected by a common theme. This is a great read and it is very difficult to put down. Buy, download, get ready for the end of the human race. Enjoy.
