New audiobook

Publishing audiobooks can be complicated. No Body Park was supposed to be ready January 10th, but there's always an issue that puts your work on pause. I was starting to think Shiver and Fears 28th book wouldn't be ready until February. That's when I saw this: No Body Park< (click here).
Now the question is when will it be ready on Amazon and Itunes? Truth is, now. January 10 I was messaged that I had to resend in the files and wait up to 14 days for the book to be published... it's been 16!! And I'm still not seeing any progress.
So then what do I have here?^^^ Well, I work with another audiobook company that not only publishes to more audio companies but doesn't have authors and their illustrating partners waiting. I've emailed the company and let them know I want an answer on why my work is being kept hostage.
My thoughts are ACX isn't very helpful. So far it's the only audiobook site that you can hire a person to read your book just with the share of royals. Other sites, such as Fiver cost 0.05₵ per word for narration, and then there are sites that just request files of narration. So you have to do it yourself.
Being an author is a difficult job, but after years of work you get used to the traffics of a task and find a few short cuts along the way.

1st Grand Appearance

I have made many appearances: schools, talent shows, tennis courts, and states. This year, in 2020 I'll be making a huge appearance at the OKC MLK JP. Also known as the Oklahoma City Martain Luther King Jr. Parade.
Tomorrow at 2p.m. I'll be inline with a bunch of bands, scouts, governers, and pageant queens as Shiver and Fears books author.

Want to know the best part? So you know how I have a partner, Randon? Well, he is going to be in the parade with me. You ill finally meet the new artist of Shiver and Fears! If this goes as planned Shiver and Fears will be live streaming this parade, if not then we will post pictures and videos on social media. Live streaming will be posted on Instagram, but pictures and videos will be posted on Facebook and Instagram. If you plan on going, be on the lookout for Shiver and Fears, author and illustrator. In fact, if you see us take a picture and hashtag Shiver and Fears ( #shiverandfears ) or tag Shiver and Fears on Instagram or Facebook( @shiverandfears ). I promise, if we find it, we'll like it and even give a prize for your post.
If you read this and it's too late at least post a picture of you at the parade and hashtag Shiverandfears ( #shiverandfears) F.Y.I That's 2 S's, one to begin Shiver and one to end Fears.

It's like I always say, one shiver, tons of fears!

First Post, New Decade

Happy New Year to the next decade of fans. Shiver and Fears has been growing lately, and I know it's because of the partners I have. That includes cousins, my illustrator, Randon, my voice narrator partner, Deontae my promotor, Tina, My support group on facebook, and my reliable friends.
Because of these people: books have been selling, more fans have favored AJ Hard, books and songs have been listed to places like iTunes, Walmart, libraries, Spotify, and still is growing over time.
In fact, Pier88 has AJ Hard labeled on their wall:

 

Not quite sure what's in store for Shiver and Fears this year, but one thing is for sure The work pays off. and maybe one day my work will reach something like 31K, but for now I'm just glad it's making progress.

You know they say I'm not famous because I'm not on tv, or because I'm not nationwide with fans, or even because I don't know a lot of celebrities. My thoughts are, that's not what makes you famous. What makes a person famous is being known out of your peers. When you write something, like a song or book, if it's good enough, people will let others know. And over time it'll grow. Everyone in the world may not know AJ Hard, or Asia Hardwick, but there are people who don't know Deon Mitchell or Kevin Hart or Ant Blades but they still have fans and thanks to you, I do too!
