Great news for writers!

Calling all writers!

On Hiatus until further notice!

A new publishing site for writers has just been launched.

 www.fictionandverse.com

The site pays for excellent poetry, flash fiction and short stories! If you are accepted, you will also be given an Author's Bio page. This payment for accepted submissions makes a welcome change to all the free offers to post on writing sites.

 There is a section called "The Hook" that showcases the first chapter of self-published novels. If you think your first chapter will hook readers and make them want to buy your book, you could gain invaluable publicity. They will also publish links to your points of sale. (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords etc.)

What are you waiting for?

 Submissions are being taken NOW!

Hello again!

Hello Readers... 

I have had a go at making my own website using WordPress. If you want to look HERE

I've had several tries before with different website makers, but found WordPress easy to understand and work with. If you want to try making one yourself, WordPress is free with the following site-builder HERE

You have to pay for a domain name (Your choice) but it only costs about $10. With that you get a free hosting service and WordPress or any other choice of website builders they offer. This is only recommended by me because I have tried it and use it with no glitch.

Do beware it takes about 10 minutes for it to update the servers, so don't do as I did ~ Email them asking why I had a message saying it was unsuccessful ~ They emailed me back within the hour and asked if I had waited the 10 minutes for the server to update. I was impressed that at 2am I got such a prompt reply!

If you want a totally free site-builder, then I would recommend the following SITE

It is free and you will have a webs address, mine is HERE

If you just want to have a Blog, then again I can recommend: http://www.blogger.com

Mine is located HERE if you want to see what it looks like.

Well I hope that helps someone looking to set up your own site and have your own little web presence before you publish that bestseller!

Regards,

Sisco.
