After a long hiatus, mostly because I am lazy, and my life is not that exciting, I decided to start up a blog again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Old-fashioned, I know. Why not use other social media? And who would read this stuff, anyhow?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don’t know the answers to those questions. Or whether this will be a long-term activity or just fade away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I do know that I have been writing more lately. I’m working on a three-book ‘thriller’ series. This is in addition to the other books I have already published. You can see them on my author site: https:\/\/www.richardhellewell.com<\/a> . They are best sellers – I have probably sold well into the low-double-digits of copies. (For those of you with finger-counting issues, that number would probably be under 20.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n But, sales or not, they were enjoyable to write. So, I’ll keep writing and self-publishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I could probably get more sales if I was any good at marketing. Or spent the time in marketing. Alas, other projects keep getting in the way, along with a fair amount of procrastination. I still do websites of various types; lately, they have been related to the self-publishing business. Of course, since I suck at marketing, they aren’t well known. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sort of a ‘circle of life’, maybe. Or a broken circle – write a boot or make a website, and don’t market it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That’s what I do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After a long hiatus, mostly because I am lazy, and my life is not that exciting, I decided to start up a blog again.<\/p>\n Old-fashioned, I know.
