Featured E-Book: The Sculptor's Muse [sticky post]
"Karl, a young painter, is struck blind almost over night by a merciless virus. Clarius, a jaded muse, is sent to watch over him. Muses are meant to remain an invisible, divine presence--but from the very beginning Clarius knows that this case will be different. Karl does not need abstract inspiration; he needs to be loved, and touched. But a vindictive female muse and Karl’s insane ex-boyfriend are hunting Clarius down--and the penalty for any muse revealing themselves to a mortal man is death! Clarius must leave the man he loves and the loss may tear them both apart."
May Events:

Promoting the Muse
I am involved in the forums at AbsoluteWrite.com. They have a few places where a member can promote without spamming. 1) The Library where authors can have a thread per genre area. I listed The Sculptor's Muse under romance. 2) The Self-promotion subforum where I put up a post that talks about what I am doing. 3) Avatar and sig line which I changed to The Sculptor's Muse. Incoming clicks for May so far--entrecard.s3.amazonaws.com: 116, entrecard.com: 90, blogger.com: 27, erecsite.com: 23, spottt.com: 9, podpeep.blogspot.com: 5, catauniversity.com: 3, google.com: 3, shelleymunro.com: 3, wwforums.com: 3. Make of it what you will.

Something I am Working on...
I am primarily a writer but also draw a little. This is my current piece. Any feedback very welcome. I never quite do realistic anatomy but I still want it to look 'right' :)

Promoting the Muse in a Red RoomDespite less than stunning results from AuthorsDen I thought I would try another author community/listing site. Red Room has much sexier look and appealed to me so I started a page there and listed Sculptor's Muse. My Spott ad has been shown "1,580 times on other sites and got 2 clicks." I am demoting below the better performing entrecard ad, and expect to delete it at the end of the month.
Novella in a Month
I decided to start work concurrently on my other story "Foolish Potions". Word count (albeit if some very rough unedited words) is now a total of 4285.

Novella in a Month #5
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Only 2,256 words in total after 6 days.
Promoting the Muse #6
Today I simply update my empty deviantart page. I keep the membership mainly just to use the forums and access the site. But there is no reason not to feature a book there: link.

Novella in a Month #5
Working on it. 1,404 words and aiming for 2,000 by the end of the day.
Promoting the Muse #5: A listing siteI listed myself the The Sculptor's Muse at Authorsden. Pros: free. Cons: no clicks so fare and there are two emailing lists I don't recall signing up for. I went in and signed off one but the other is apparently compulsory if you want a listing.
