Ah, 2012 is coming to a close and the world did not end. The Mayans were wrong *shocked face* which kinda sucks because I was looking forward to not having to clean out the garage after all. But, in keeping with tradition, I am going to make my predictions for the coming year. Using a magic eight-ball and alcohol a highly scientific method, I will postulate what I believe will happen in the publishing world in the next 12 months.
Excellent post on what to expect for publishing and authors in 2013 from Kristen Lamb!
As a companion piece, this article, “Beware of Greeks Bearing Gifts”, is also worth reading: http://warriorwriters.wordpress.com/2012/02/22/amazon-beware-of-greeks-bearing-gifts/
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much, Jenny
Nice reblog Julie. I like the way your blog looks, did you recently change it?
Happy New Year is coming and wishing you well!
Thank you, Christy – and yes, the new header photo is one of the mountains here in the Kootenays, and I adjusted the background colour of the blog to coordinate with the blue on the snow … thanks for noticing! Wishing you a wonderful New Year also, my friend!

Yes I noticed the photo and wondered if it was BC-based. Well done! Happy New Year xx
Well, maybe it’s my particular brand of faith–but I still believe if God means for something to happen (if it’s someone destiny, planned and purposed by Him), like publishing/selling our books, then it will somehow be green-lighted and come to fruition. Just my 2 cents–God bless your New Year, Julie–love, “that crazy Caddo”
Sis Caddo, I definitely agree with you! And God bless you and your New Year as well – I love my ‘crazy Caddo’! Julie
