Who’s ready for Christmas? Because I, certainly, am not. Christmas is in a week, ladies and gentlemen, and I still have presents to buy, cookies to bake, and an awful lot of things to do at work before the end of the year. Sound familiar? I thought it might. So I thought I’d make one suggestions for the lot of you: Don’t forget that Carey Azzara’s The Lottery Curse is on sale and will make the perfect gift for the fellow readers in your life. Order now and you might get it by the time the holiday rolls around!Â

FAQ of the day:Â What does it cost to use your services?
That depends on which services are being discussed. To understand our core Author Driven Publishing program start by reading https://soopllc.com/publish-soop/#.VQNYT9LF-6M. It discusses SOOP’s no-obligation model and should address many of your questions about getting started and progressing towards publication.
SOOP currently has two pathways, a free, as well as a premium subscription version. Our subscription service will give you access to professional feedback as you unlock benefits at your voting milestones. In our free version, you will receive the homework assignments, but will work the assignments in a different manner while pursuing the same 2,000 voting milestone.
If you’re also considering other aspects of specific support needed along the publishing journey, we have some great service providers to meet your needs in a variety of ways. Visit our Services Marketplace and check out the experts there. Each service is available individually to any author (for hire as needed), or as part of a larger package for authors who are publishing with SOOP.
