Time for Gratitude

Wicked Sense - Fabio Bueno - Paperback

We are not alone.

It’s been over a month since the launch of Wicked Sense. It seems like it was ages ago! The release month was a wonderful time. The novel performed modestly but well for a debut author in such a niche genre, and even reached Top 100 in one Amazon subcategory and a coveted  #1 in another (yay!).

During this month, and in the weeks preceding it, I’ve worked hard … Continue reading

3 Road Trip Games

Family Road Trip

Recently, our family has been traveling by car a lot. Plane travel is a hassle and so expensive! We’ve decided to enjoy the wonders near home. So we hop on our minivan (don’t laugh; it’s huge, functional, powerful, responsive, and one of the most comfortable cars to travel) and go.

Family Road TripBut I don’t believe in DVD players … Continue reading

Interview at Liv Rancourt’s Blog

Young Adult fiction writer

Young Adult fiction writerWe’re skipping YAmondAY once again, because the release week for Wicked Sense ended up being longer than seven days. I might rename it “The Longest Week,” as if it were an old World War II-movie. Anyway, the “week” will wrap up on Wednesday Sep 19th, with the Goodreads Giveaway (1,000 entries and counting!) … Continue reading

Book Cover Reveal – WICKED SENSE by Fabio Bueno

Wicked Sense Cover Fabio Bueno

I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time. The novel was finished a while ago. It won a prize and complimentary critiques from professionals. It was edited and proofread. I even had drafts printed for beta readers with a temporary cover. But the “real” cover—the perfect cover—was hard to find.

Young Adult fiction writer

The novel is … Continue reading

The Secret Writer, Revealed

For a long time I’ve been hiding my writing career from most friends and acquaintances. Well, not exactly “hiding” it. Just… not publicizing it. I’m not sure why. Perhaps I felt I didn’t belong. Maybe I wasn’t so sure whether I wanted to be a professional writer.

When my daughter told me she wanted to … Continue reading

7 Reasons to Change a Blog Post

A published post never comes back. It’ll linger on the internet until the Sun turns into a red giant (it cannot go supernova–it’s true, look it up.) You can never have it back or truly delete it, because search engines will cache it, bloggers will reblog it, and people will remember it (or save it or take screenshots of it). But you can still update it.

Why would you update a blog post? Here are … Continue reading

Third: Tetris

Would you watch any of these movies? They don’t look more ludicrous than the Battleship trailer :-) Do you have a favorite cartoon, game, hero, or book that you’d like to be mande into a movie?
