New Look

- April 16, 2019

Thanks to the suggestion of my first reader and commenter, I changed the look of the blog. What do you think? Is it easier to read? Today Jim and I are taking our cat Toby to the vet. Last year he ran into a stick with one of his eyes and now has only one eye and is a totally indoor cat. But somehow he managed to cut himself under his chin and it will not heal and he will not let me clean it. I have given him Amoxicillin but it hasn't made a difference. So today our friend Katta has arranged to take us to Dr. Marta - our vet. I hope he will be okay, he gets easily freaked by new experiences. My friend Jan, who met me in Ecuador and has known me since elementary school, has allowed me to send my new computer to her house so I can get one with an English keyboard and programs and it was delivered yesterday! Yay! Soon I will have a new computer! Thanks Jan! Speaking of Ecuador, we had such a fun time. One morning in Banos, Stephanie wasn't feeling well so Jan and I went off...

Next month: Montevideo, Uraguay!

- April 19, 2019

Yes, that's right, next month I will (hopefully) go to Uraguay! I am so excited. I have wanted to visited the other countries in South America but somehow we never managed to go. Now that we are not buying property in Ecuador (the only lot I was interested in was not a winner with Jim: too low to the beach), we are free to travel. The local airlines offer super specials so in May we plan on going to Montevideo for 6 days and perhaps a few more days to explore the rest of the country. I asked my friend Jan to accompany us and she is thinking about it! How fun would that be? Super fun!

Book Promotion or lack thereof and why I love Ecuador!

- April 15, 2019

Okay, I feel like talking about what's happening to me right now. The thing about the book is that I have no clue how to market it. I have tried so many things that just don't result in anything significant. Even this blog, I have no idea what to write in this blog. One source said blogging is the best way to promote a book, but not write about the book, write about other stuff. Really? Does that really work? How do people know to come to my blog? Why would anyone care to read it? I don't know but I am giving it a try. So, I am just going to babble today to see if anyone reads it and responds. Anyway, now I am considering a book promotion service to promote my book for me. Books Go Social has a service that costs $149 for 6 weeks of promotion with a money back guarantee - so it sounds good to me. I just bought a new computer this month and still have to pay for shipping from the US to Chile, so I need to wait until next month to order the promotion service. sigh Toda...
