I'm Eleanor Sullivan. Not sure if I'm doing this right (!) if I was supposed to start a new thread but...heh, I'm learning.
After a career in nursing and university administration and writing dozens of books for nurses (still am), I ventured into mystery writing more than 10 years ago. No one got nursing right--not movies, not TV, not books. Three novels later, I turned to capturing my ancestors' stories in a historical mystery series. The first Singular Village Mystery my agent couldn't sell so, after bad experiences with a small press, I went the indie route. I couldn't be more pleased. I can track sales with promotional activities and I get paid right away. Still, a lot of work and money upfront--hired professional editor, cover designer, book designer. We can talk more about this if anyone wants to.
I live in St. Louis now but I've lived all over the midwest with job moves. Where is Weary, Kansas? I lived in Kansas for many years. So happy Karen's started this!
