Photo Credit: https://awesomegang.com/leslie-jasper/
Hello Everyone!
Is your Friday flowing well for you so far this afternoon? Do you have any plans for the weekend? I plan on spending time with friends having dinner this weekend. As I have said quite a few times before, I thank you for checking out my 16-year-old son John's "Call To Action Marketing" business (hashtag #CTAMarketing). This post is intended to share even more work of some independent authors, such as myself, and earn some good karma in the process. Why not offer you a taste of a variety of authors with different content? Let me know if you have discovered a new author during this "Showcased Author Series"? My objective is to pick out different authors that offer a variety of media content. For the record, I know nothing about the author other than what is showcased in the author article that was shared, via Awesome Gang. Feel free to copy and paste and share this content on your blog, if you like. As an author, if you want to add more information, drop it down in the comment section below and I will edit and add at my earliest convenience. For now, I'm connecting with the authors in an effort to build my author network. Hopefully, they will follow me back on social media. I'm game to cross promote each other on social media as well. Just let me know or re-tweet one of my posts and I will automatically return the favor on Twitter. I'm totally cool with many ways to help each other market each other. When you are a small content creator, it is important to help others out. I'm even submitted #ConstructionTales to both Awesome Gang and Book Reader Magazine recently. When I'm ready to release my children's book Not All Girls Play With Dolls on Amazon, I shall submit again at that time. My first children's book #NotAllGirlsPlayWithDolls is to empower young kids to pursue their passions even if it is not normally the tradition in their society. Do you have any requests for a specific author or style of content? Let me know your various suggestions down the in the comment section below. For now, here are (3) showcased authors down below:
Showcased Author- 1.) Yvonne Rediger
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I was born in Saskatchewan, lived and worked in northern Manitoba, Alberta, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan, and Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
I’ve been writing since I was in my teens. My favourite genres are Mystery, Urban Fantasy, and Romantic Suspense, each with a bit of humour.
March 6, 2022, my tenth novel will be released.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Condo Crazy is the third book in the cozy Musgrave Landing Mysteries series. This work inspired by my sister and the crazy things that happened in her condo building. She was great about letting me weave her adventures into a story. I like to add humour to my stories and Condo Crazy has some funny things happen along with a few mysteries to solve.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I don’t know about unusual, to me they seem normal. I scuba dive and sail with my husband. I’m also the videographer on his Pallet Cabin YouTube channel. We own a parcel of land and my husband always wanted to build a cabin from scratch, so here we are.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Tanya Huff and her many, many books. She too writes several genres, all have mystery of a type to solve like mine. Ann Cleeves and her Vera series influenced my other mystery series, The Adam Norcross Mysteries. Linwood Barclay, his dry wit. Harlen Coben too, there are so many.
What are you working on now?
Currently, I’m working on the next Adam Norcross mystery, The Right Road, the follow up to The Wrong Words from 2021. While the previous on was set on Vancouver Island, this one will contain more travel, Afghanistan to Canadian Prairies.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
You can find all my news and the books here: https://blackyvy50.wixsite.com/yvonnerediger
There is no link as yet for Condo Crazy, it’s coming soon!

Do you have any advice for new authors?
Read writing craft books. If you have a favourite author and he or she has written a ‘how I write’ book, read it. Check you local library for books as well. Also, don’t think you have to have your whole story figured out before you start typing, you don’t. Begin, that is the first step. Write the scenes that keep you up at night first. Later you can daisy-chain them together and reorganize them.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Just write it down. You can’t edit a blank page.
What are you reading now?
Terry Pratchett’s Jingo. I love Sir Sameul Vimes and the Watch in Discworld. Sir Terry knew how to write humour along with big social issues.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Once I have The Right Road completed and submitted to my publisher. It will be on to book 4, as yet untitled, of the Musgrave Landing Mysteries. I think a mystery weekend theme may be in store for Gladys and Arlington.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
Lois McMaster Bujold’s Shards of Honour Omnibus. Tanya Huff’s Blood Series Omnibus. Ann Cleeves’ latest Vera novel and the bible.

Showcased Author- 2.) wong ian
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Hello everybody! i am a hong kong people. I like to build the thing up from zero and establish it to a certain extent. Sometimes, a lot of ideas would come up in my mind. During covid-19, everyone has to stay up at home. So, I just do a thing I’ve never done before. You know what, I’ve just written a new ebook published on amazon.
So, this is my first book!
In fact, I have spent such a long time writing this book but I don’t have the courage to publish it online at the beginning. Writing a book and publishing it on amazon is a long story to tell. Hope people like my book.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The name of my book is “Losing Weight Easy: From The Art of War Perspective & Ian’s mindset ”
During covid-19, everyone has to stay at home for a long time. I think this may be a good time for me to publish my 1st book as everyone may have some more leisure time to read anyway.
What’s more, people may not be easy to keep being fit as they have less time to go out for exercise during covid-19. Maybe, People may put on a few pounds in some way. My book is about the mindset and strategies for losing weight in an easy way. Therefore, I think my book may be of some value to people in a certain way, especially during covid-19.
So, finally, I decided to publish my first ebook on amazon. At that moment, I feel so touching and this book is just like my newborn son.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
nothing unusual. I just need to be in a quiet environment and fully concentrate on my mind to write something serious.
I get used to writing in moring time. This is the best time for me.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
4-Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss. It inspires me a lot. Working independent of time, location is the goal to fight for now. It gives me another direction for life in some way.
What are you working on now?
I am striving hard to promote my ebook online.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I think finding a book agency like Awesome gang is a good way.
Also, doing content marketing via social media is another way.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Keep writing as a habit. Adjusted to the feedback of reality. You just need to improve very very little every time. But, it must be from your genuine desire for writing!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Quality is subjective. Get yourself dirty first!
What are you reading now?
It is a Chinese book. The book is about the autobiography of Genghis Khan
What’s next for you as a writer?
I just focus on the marketing of my first book. let’s see if people like my book. There is still a lot of things to learn. A long way to go.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
4-Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss
The power of No by James Altucher
A Steve jobs biography by Anna Revell

I recently shared my latest short story that has been loaded up to my Construction Tales-Told By A Woman Kindle Vella Library on Amazon. This is short story #11 entitled, "Juggling Motherhood & Working With The Tools". This short story covers my life as a widowed, single mother in the era when I juggled both motherhood and my career as a journeywoman electrician. I share the various challenges I faced and lessons learned along the way. The previous short story is entitled: #10: "Early Life Lessons & Characters To Meet As An Apprentice". I decided to write about some life lessons such as guarding your personal information, managing nasty rumors, combating sexual harassment, gender discrimination, and racism. Overall, the construction culture has improved dramatically over the past 25-years. Developing both a thick skin and a sharp tongue are key tools needed to survive various jobsite antics. I hope you learn something from this short story. There are more to come. These short stories are now also available as Verbally Disastrous podcast episodes.
