Hidden Enemies

When I first wrote this post, I identified with the main character in the recent Netflix movie Tick Tick BOOM. He'd been working on a musical for 8 years and in one week would be showing the musical for the first time. Only one problem--he had to write one more key song. He sat at the computer and started a sentence. Then he corrected the sentence, then he deleted the sentence, then he rewrote the beginning of the sentence. He sat there, watching the cursor tick and tick and tick . . . 

I published the book Hidden Enemies in 2020. This book received an Honorable Mention at the 2020 Next Generation Indie Book Awards so I know it must be a halfway decent read. In 2020, I also changed my book Remember Me from past tense to present tense. Remember Me received first place in the suspense category in the 2019 Next Generation Indie Book awards and Honorable Mention at the Hollywood Book Festival. So I know it also must be a half-way decent read.

But few people have read it and it's all my fault. I have done a terrible job of marketing my books and have made very few sales. 

So at least someone would read them,  I decided to donate my books to the library yesterday and talked to the person in charge. He said if they are self-published, he needs to take a look at any book reviews on Amazon as well as the books themselves. I left him one copy of each book, plus Red Flag Warning that I had to regain my rights from Infinity years ago when they went out of business and republish myself (long story). I never heard back.

Back then, I was inspired and I had a lot to say. Then the pandemic hit . . . and I have been languishing. I am working on another book, but it's going slowly. And now, for the first time, I understand writer's block.

Since these books are difficult to find by searching Amazon.com, here is my author link: https://www.amazon.com/stores/M-A-Florence/author/B00915SFSE?ref=ap_rdr&store_ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true

So, I have two interesting sci-fi light, suspense books for you to read!! And I hope you take me up on it. 

2024 Update: I just finished converting Remember Me into the screenplay Mem-G. So maybe my story will get traction in the movie industry. I'm also on the home stretch of my fourth sci-fi light, suspense book. Wish we me luck that I will get it done this year! The working title is The Time is Now.
