Kids these days, eh? Always wandering around with their noses in their iPhones, up to no good.

Well, maybe not. Because lots of them are using an app called Wattpad which might just be the biggest revolution in reading you’ve never heard of.

What's Up With Wattpad?

I am hosting a writing contest focusing on the horror/thriller genre, inspired partly by the works of Stephen King. Write a short story/flash fiction between 250 and 1000 words, and email it to me at cheesepuff5292@yahoo.com by January 31st. First prize is a 2000 word critique of your manuscript!

More details here:

Thanks a bunch, and I hope some of you wonderful writers decide to participate!

Peace, Aimee

My latest column for IndieReader.com is up:

Lots of talk about KDP Select. One self-publisher shares her experiences, and her talks about her ten-year publishing career.
