I have a release date for JAGGED FEATHERS!!
And I have a brand new, hot-off-the-press Book Trailer Video for Jagged Feathers!
AND, drum roll please……..
I just posted my one-thousandth blog!
Created in Canva by Jan Sikes
When I decided a few years ago to start blogging consistently, I only had a handful of followers and less than a handful of ideas to blog about.
Now, I have a little over 10,000 followers and am never lacking for content.
I’ve posted writing tips, marketing ideas, shared new releases from other authors, shared book reviews, supported blog tours, promoted indie music artists, shared personal stories, and incorporated my passion for all things metaphysical into my blog. So, now the process seems almost effortless.
I recently experimented with a Facebook Passion Page, only to soon realize I did not have the time or energy to support or build up another page. So, I’ve transferred all of my passions to my blog.
I am an avid reader, therefore love sharing reviews for the books I read.
I get a thrill of supporting other authors with their new releases or tours.
Exploring music history or sharing new music from indie artists brings me joy.
But what gets me more excited than anything else I blog about are my Monday posts with a motivational meme, a meditation, either rune or tarot card reading and a beautiful dragon card. My hope is to bring inspiration to someone’s day. We live in tumultuous and challenging times. We need all the help we can get to stay positive. I’ve recently incorporated a regular Wednesday post about gemstones and their metaphysical properties that runs along that same vein. I want to make the world a better place through blogging!
So, to celebrate my blogging journey and reaching 1,000 posts, I am going to give away some things. 🙂
$10 Amazon Gift Cards (Two)
Tiger’s Eye Gemstone (Two – U.S. Only)
Rose Quartz Gemstone (Two – U.S. Only)
Ghostly Interference eBook Format (One)
Voodoo or Destiny: You Decide eBook Short Story (Three to celebrate Halloween Month)
That’s eight ways you can be entered to win!!!
Winners will be announced next week!
Thank you for coming along with me on this journey! It’s been a fun ride so far!
1,000 posts—wow! I think I may be a little over 100. At the same time, I love interacting with other bloggers and having opportunities to write. Congrats on your new trailer and for reaching the 1,000th milestone post.
I am looking forward to that book, Jan. January, you say? I’m patient. I’m already following you… well, just about everywhere, so I shared your trailer!
Oh, thank you, Jacquie. I’m glad you liked the trailer. I never know, and sometimes, the music is the hardest part. I’d love to get better at using actual video clips, but can’t ever seem to find the time to shut everything down to learn something new. Thank you for stopping by!
Jan- I am so proud of all you e accomplished and I’m so honored to call you a Dear Friend. Congrats on your momentous blog. I cannot wait to read your newest nook. I’m so excited. Love you and keep entertaining us.
The new book looks great Jan and congratulations on your 1000th blog post.. certainly cause for celebration…look forward to showcasing the book nearer the time..hugsx
Wonderful trailer for Jagged Feathers, Jan. I really like the music that went with it, too.
Congrats on your 1000th blog post. That is absolutely fabulous!
I’m glad you enjoyed the book trailer, Mae. I always enjoy making them and for some reason, sometimes the music is the hardest part of the whole thing. 🙂 Thank you for stopping by to celebrate with me!
Congratulations on this milestone, Jan! Sorry the FB page didn’t work out, but this is such a positive space. I don’t think you need it. Everyone feels at home here. You’ve made your corner of the web warm and wonderful. Best wishes to you!
I’m sorry to be so late to the party, Jan. Huge congrats! Hugs on the wing!
