<\/p>\nBlogging.<\/p>\n
Blog. *thinks* Ing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(Me, in the “olden days” drinking Fireball whiskey and brainstorming with Johnny Coattails, aka Jason Jones<\/em>.)<\/p>\n How do I blog? I used to do this all the time. It’s been, erm, years. It’s been so long that I had to change several passwords just to access this back end. It’s been so long that it’s been more than a few book releases without blog announcements. That can’t be good. Whoopsie.<\/p>\n I’ve never been very good at self-promotion. It always felt risky, like if I talked myself up too much, sooner or later someone would pop out of the woodwork to say “uh, actually, no, you shouldn’t be writing books because you suck so bad, duh.” Not that it would stop me, but it sure wouldn’t feel good. It might even ruin my appetite, and we all know how much I love food.<\/p>\n Come to think of it, I’m pretty bad at putting myself out there in a lot of ways. I spent much of my teenage years hiding in my bedroom with a clunky old typewriter instead of socializing like the other kids did. I suppose it was easier for me to deal with imaginary people than with real ones. Maybe it still is. *lifts eyebrow* All right, Self, that’s enough depth for one day. It’s a Saturday ffs, and roasting hot outside, and I swear I’m only half-awake. Confessions of the soul can wait for another day.<\/p>\n ANYWAYS. I’m going to try to do better at blogging. And self-promo. And marketing. Etc. TRY. That’s all I can promise, as it’s so uncomfortable for me.<\/p>\n For now, you can find all my books here<\/a>, on my Amazon page. Here’s my Fall 2022 update, such as it is:<\/p>\n The current Marnie Baranuik Files<\/strong> <\/em>reading list is as follows:<\/p>\n Touched<\/a><\/p>\n Death Rejoices<\/a><\/p>\n Last Impressions<\/a><\/p>\n Wrath and Bones<\/a><\/p>\n Blightmare<\/a><\/p>\n Kindred Spirits<\/a><\/p>\n The “Between the Files<\/strong><\/em>” short stories reading order is as follows:<\/p>\n Cold Company<\/a><\/p>\n Dirt Nap<\/a><\/p>\n Deadhead<\/a><\/p>\n Stiff Competition<\/a><\/p>\n Grave Mistakes<\/a><\/p>\n Grave Dealings\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n I hope I didn’t forget anything? If I have, I’m gonna be super embarrassed, considering these are my books and I’m supposed to, uh, know about them and stuff. Someone asked me just last week<\/em> how many books I had published, and I had to shrug because I could not for the life of me remember. (It’s seven now, right? Seems like I shouldn’t have to scroll up and count… DAMMIT.)<\/p>\n The newest novel, Kindred Spirits<\/a>, can be purchased on Amazon.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.ajaalto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/thumbnail-194x300.jpg\")
