12 Books in 12 Months? - NOW AVAILABLE!

-
Holy Smokes, Tofu! I actually did it!



Well, despite my total incompetence when it comes to computers and technology, I was able to get 12 Books in 12 Months? uploaded and it is NOW AVAILABLE!
You can buy it at www.smashwords.com the link is: https://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/MikePrzysiezny 
I've also uploaded the book to Amazon.ca and it is now available in the library, the link is:  https://www.amazon.ca/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Stud%21o+M%21ke 
The hardest part of this process was learning the publishing software - Vellum - and figuring out how to get the book available for purchase. The reason I used Smashwords is because it makes the book available at every bookseller except Amazon. So, between making it available on Smashwords and Amazon, I should have all the avenues to sell the book covered. But I guess we'll see.
I don't expect this book to be successful necessarily, what I'm really hoping is that it gets the ball rolling, to start building momentum for the eleven other books I'll be releasing this year.
I'm just glad I got the first book up and available because now I can go back to concentrating on the book I'm currently writing - Lost in the Wilderness - and continue all the editing that comes along with releasing twelve books in a year.
Every month I'll write about the newest book and post a taste of it here.
Thank you to everyone who has supported me through this long, often painful process. I couldn't have done this without your help. You are amazing and I'm grateful for your support.

Below you will find the introduction to 12 Books in 12 Months?:

"12 books in 12 months? Am I crazy or what? That is the goal though, to release one book a month, every month, during the year 2018.
Some of the books I will release this year will include: Young Adult Fiction, Children’s Fiction, Adult Sci-fi/Fantasy, an Illustrated Novel, a Vegan Cook Book, a Short Story Anthology and a Non-Fictional musical adventure called My Wasted Youth.
What makes this idea even crazier is that most of these books lie in an incomplete state. I’d say at least ten of them are near the finish line but this really will be a challenge and unless I put myself out the way I have, trying to make this somewhat outrageous idea a reality, none of them would probably ever see the light of day.
They say everybody has at least one good book in them, so, I’ve decided to put out twelve books in twelve months with my fingers crossed that at least one of them is good, possibly even great.
Twelve Books in Twelve Months? is a tasty sampling size of some of the work that I will release in 2018, to give potential readers a taste of the madness that is my mind.
Enjoy the madness!
STUD!O M!KE"

Ladybird Animal Sanctuary

A couple weeks ago, we had in our living room, three big hearted individuals, Melissa McClelland , Janine Stoll and Lisa Winn , from Ladybird Animal Sanctuary . The following is the transcription of the interview. You can find the video version up above. How did it all start? “I’m an animal lover, and a full-time touring musician," said McClellan. "And I think I just wanted part of my life to focus on my love for animals, because so much of my life is wrapped up being on the road. So I brought it up with these girls, and we all thought it was a great idea, so we’ve been talking about it for a few years now.” “I had already been doing it small scale," said Winn, "because I’ve worked at animal shelters, and had already been rescuing and fostering for a number of years.” “I felt like the three of us come from different backgrounds, and we work so nicely together," said McClelland. "Our personalities, we just click as friend. And Lisa has the background w

Best Metal'ish albums of 2022

We use the term Metal’ish because some of our favorite albums could be considered metal adjacent, not metal necessarily, but awesome none-the-less and worthy of this list. We are always on the hunt for the next awesome metal album and this year there was no shortage of great stuff, in fact, this list could have been a lot longer. Finding all these albums on our own would be near impossible. What we do is wait until all the YouTube metal nerds put out their metal lists and we watch them - 20 or so videos so far -  and any albums we haven’t heard yet, we check them out. Basically we let them find all the good albums that we missed and then check them out and see what we think. The criteria for this list is easy: is it a kick ass album? Yes or no? If no, then it’s probably power metal. If yes, we listen to it until we get sick of it. Anyways, here is the list of top metal’ish albums of 2022. We are reversing a trend and instead of making you wait to see what is #1, we will just start ther

I must have picked the right font, because it looks like Gop 10 ! Ok, it's no surprise that I'm procrastinating writing my newest project, though I did write a short story for the Toronto Star Short Story contest, which means I still haven't given up my dream of becoming a successful author. Lucky for me, being a successful author means: completing a project I start. Also, it should't come as a surprise that I'm single, so I've compiled a Top 10 list of the reasons for this. Top 10 Reasons I’m Not Surprised I Don’t Have a Girlfriend. #10 - I trim my toenails with my teeth. #9 - When I pulled my laundry out of the dryer, I didn’t find any underwear, that’s when I realized I was still wearing the pair I washed last week. #8 - I’m broke and broken. #7 - I run like a girl and sit down to pee. #6 - I cut my own hair. #5 - I cry when I watch ‘The Notebook’. #4 - I’ll eat anything that’s free. #3 - I’ll drink anything that’s free. #2 - The minute I realize I’
