Having a chat about Email security and the Good and Geeky book on Amazon. More about what is coming next with Good and Geeky Books. Will it be Good and Geeky Art or Good and Geeky Life Logging?

Just got the third chapter of the Smoking Zombies published on Wattpad.

Talking about writing and building up the audience. Finding readers and using the Print Friendly website to turn a web page into a PDF.

I also introduce my zombie novel which I'll be publishing as a serial on Wattpad. https://goodandgeeky.com/good-and-geeky-podcast-number-2/

Good and Geeky Books

Working on building up the author platform by giving my first Good and Geeky books away to find my audience. The internet is a crowded space and authors have to find their readers. Loving the experience of doing the geeky set up of my web sites to draw in mores fans to my email list.

On the fiction side of things.

Today I published the first chapter of my zombie novel on Wattpad. Now I have to come up with a new chapter every week. I have some of the second chapter written already so I am a little ahead of myself.

Good day today - Wrote about 2000 words. Mostly for a blog post that I turned into this Podcast, but I did write 400 words for the intro to the zombie story.

I talk about the publication of my book into the Kindle store. Delighted to have for to the point where I could submit it. I had to make a couple of updates with readers pointing out a couple of typos. There will always be some niggles hiding.

Looking forward to making an iBooks Author version of the book to send to the Apple Book Store. It will have to wait because I went with KDP Select which is a 90 day tie in.

I comment about the moaning from the guy that makes the Overcast app. He says Apple software is worse now and should be better. All this wee Overcast has been crashing my iPhone. Irony overload there! Hopefully this week it will be better as he finally got an upgrade out to users.

Off to the writers group tomorrow and the word to start us off with some ideas for a story is Harmony.

Talking about Tutanova encrypted email service and How I prefer to use GPG.

Alistair is an amateur photographer and we talk about using the application from Apple, Aperture and what is going to likely happen when the new Photos application comes out. Both of us are quite optimistic at the moment that Apple will be able to bring us some think that will be as easy to use as iPhoto but will have the power of the professional application.
