Indie author Ellen Khodakivska



Dear readers and indie authors, let me introduce you to outstanding indie author Ellen Khodakivska. I was reading her books, and it was a significant experience.

It bases her plot on actual stories; she writes emotionally, and her story brings an important message to value your life as a special gift. She is a romance writer and love stories are sensitive with a touch of sadness. Ellen is dancing with life and death, joy and sadness, and metaphors like "forget-me-not" are a part of her special style. 

It will attract you with colorful sentences, easy reading, and romance that are old-fashioned but emotional in the greatest way. We forgot about traditional love stories through this age of technology, but here is Ellen to remind us about humanity.

How authors' profile should look like?

Inspired by Instagram, I am writing this post. Many authors want to get followers there using the option follow to follow. How much is this kind of following honest and why does it look like a manipulation? Imagine you are going shopping. The vendor says: "If you buy this, I will buy something from you."

It means we have our emotions, reactions, and imagination. The primary task of every author is to represent himself to readers. Here is what

My horror novel: The curse of Dark sunrise

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BY34C83J?ref_=pe_3052080_276849420 Writing in various genres is always challenging.  This is my journey in horror genre. My novel is coming soon. The blurb: Dark sunrise is a religious cult. They are gathering members. Their supporters are people from destroyed families or those who suffer from depression.  Ana is recruited in the community when she came on the party in Croatia.   She accept to involve with a leader Victor, but he has other plans. Kidnapping a Serbian politician was a wrong move. When the new woman in the community appears, rivalry starts. Check out my book in Amazon. 

5 kind of editors you can meet

If you take edited book for granted, you might be unpleasantly surprised. If you look on Amazon shelves, every second book has a comment about "bad editing". It happens even to successful writers.  What is important is to spend your money for editing in smart way. If you pay, you need to get edited book in return. The way how some editors work is various, and some of them might disappoint you. What kind of editors you can meet? Slow editor . You submitted your book for editing before two months, it still did not arrive. When you impatiently wait to publish your book, time is precious. Fast editor .
