Featuring Miley Cyrus’s “The Climb” I can almost see itThat dream I’m dreamingBut, there’s a voice inside my head sayingYou’ll never reach it How do they do it? You know, those genius authors who seem to intrinsically grasp how to do it all—Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tik Tok, Book Bub, Goodreads, MeWe… and more. To me, they … Continue reading An author’s belly-crawl through the treacherous obstacle course that is social media.

And Happy New Year!!! Decisiveness has long been, let’s say, an issue for me.  Yes, I struggle with decision-making.  *I wanted to tweak the spellings of the names of three of my four children by the time they were in first grade. *I make pro’s and con’s lists when trying to decide if I want to go on … Continue reading I didn’t lie…. I just changed my mind. (Not a crime FYI)

I’ve finally made the difficult decision to self-publish my completed Adult Gay Romance novel, Whatever He Needs. There were many considerations that factored in. Here are some of my major ones: PRO-PUBLISHER: *I enjoy the support of a publisher – I like being on a team *the creation of the book is virtually free  *more eyes … Continue reading Decision Made: WHATEVER HE NEEDS by Mia Kerick

Sometimes we, as authors, simply must open our minds and hearts to honest criticism.  Yes, our books are our babies…but then, sometimes we look at our children and don’t see them as clearly as we should, right? I received a critique from a valued beta reader about a MC, let’s call him Joe, in a … Continue reading LISTEN TO YOUR BETA READERS

I don’t cook. Well, I did cook, once upon a time. It was actually one of the things I looked forward to most when I first got married: cooking my man his dinner. (Yes, how traditional of me.) Unfortunately, Mr. Mia (hubby) wasn’t particularly enthralled by the two meals I knew how to make: 1.Chicken Rice Casserole: chicken … Continue reading I DON’T COOK

Today is National Coming Out Day 2017! It is observed annually to raise awareness of CIVIL RIGHTS for the LGBTQ Community. I’m celebrating with the Human Rights Campaign (see below) by supporting LGBTQ EQUALITY on Facebook and Twitter. I hope to do a small part in helping to create an environment in which people can live … Continue reading National Coming Out Day 2017!

I’m drawn to the struggle of LGBTQ individuals. I’m not LGBTQ, myself. And none of my children or close friends have confided to me that they are LGBTQ people. I am merely an ally, with no motivation other than my strong desire that all human beings enjoy the fullest scope of human rights. The struggle … Continue reading What’s Goin’ On…

    I recently returned from my first experience as a keynote speaker, which took place in Berlin, Germany, at the Euro Pride Con 2017.

It had been on my mind for a long time… with Inclination, the story of a devout Catholic teen, Anthony Del Vecchio, who is facing the reality of his gayness, I knew I could do better. And so at the time where my contract expired with CoolDudes Publishing, and I had the options of pulling … Continue reading Re release of Inclination by Mia Kerick August 10, 2017

I’ll be the first to admit it: most of my books are angsty. I write about anguish. Troubles. Torment. This is not a crime, as far as I know. I write angst because it’s what I like to read. I want to feel a character’s pain. I want to earn every single bit of my … Continue reading RELEASE DAY- IT COULD HAPPEN Playlist by Mia Kerick

I’m not even slightly technically inclined, BUT, necessity IS the mother of invention, right? Not that I invented canva.com’s meme-making system, but the necessity to promote my books drove me to a frenzied trial-by-error approach to figuring out (aka inventing) how to make memes to use on social media. I credit Julia Ember with the … Continue reading FUN with Mia’s Homemade Memes
