Life Along the Way: A Novice Author's Journey Toward Self-Publication
ByPublisher Description
Even the best-laid plans are subject to life and the glorious upheavals it brings. Add in wayward ducks-in-a-row and a misbehaving writing muse, and no force in heaven or earth could plan or plot a straight path to a lofty goal.
From high-maintenance felines to optometrists, from equipment failures to busted thyroid glands, Life Along the Way is a series of 100 blog posts highlighting one beginning writer's pie-in-the-sky writing dream.
Author B. A. Paul looks back at how she began, the lessons learned, and what the future may hold. Hopes, dreams, and fears — interspersed with giddy little jump-and-squeal moments — turn her review into part memoir, part writing adventure — with well over a hundred little lessons learned if only for herself and her Little Miss Muse.

About B. A. Paul
Beth enjoys chucking words into sentences then standing back to see what magic—or mayhem—falls out, crafting tales in mystery, sci-fi, fantasy, and general "slice of life" fiction. She couldn't accomplish this without the help of her tutu-clad Little Miss Muse and Trudi the Concrete Office Goose, who's partial to superhero capes.
Her stories have appeared in multiple publications, including Pulphouse Fiction Magazine and Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, and in multiple fiction anthologies. She's received several Honorable Mentions from Writers of the Future. Her lighthearted blog peeks into the writing life as she pokes fun at herself and her circus of a life.
Follow the antics of Little Miss Muse and Trudi, read Beth's blog (she might have burned down her kitchen last week), and discover the stories at bapaul.com.
