Writing Down The Bones Deck #17
Hi guys, It has been a while since I completed one of these card prompts. This post series has been inspired by Denise E Lindquist. I never would have known about this deck of cards if it wasn't for her. So thank you Denise for sharing this lovely deck of cards with all of us on Vocal. I definitely have been putting this card off.

My book is out, what now?
Trying to get your book out into the world has to be one of the most challenging things I have come across. Honestly, I thought everything would be easy after my book was published. Being a writer is the easiest part when it comes to coming up with a story, typing it, doing the research yourself, and then just sending it off to the publicist.
