I've tried doing LIVE videos a few times on my Facebook account. However, the most responses to such things I've had is 1 or 2. And I was online for a while just now. I try giving people some heads up, but it's not very easy for me to wait. I asked in my writer group if anyone wants to try one but no one ever answered.
*sigh*

So during this "quarantine" for COVID-19, I'm hoping and planning to get several things accomplished.
- Writing something from start to finish that's worth getting published.
- Remaking a number of book covers, though selling them isn't looking very likely. Also, learning Photoshop Elements so they turn out better.
- Maybe learning more Spanish.
- Helping Mom with her French. Helping Dad learn Facebook for LIVE videos.
- Learning to cook/bake (at least moderately).
- Create/Paint/Artistic endeavors.
- And a couple of other things.
Basically, I want to make my life so busy I'm surprised when the "quarantine" is lifted.

The book covers....😪....aren't too likely, in actuality. I may own a fantastic program and have several hundred photos saved in various electronic apparatuses, but that doesn't mean I'm very good.
People usually just make their own because they think it's "cheaper". I honestly don't see how that's possible. I mean, they have to pay for the program (if they want a good one), plus the photos/images they use. They also have to spend the time learning the program and how to use it - which takes away from their writing time.
I honestly don't see the appeal. My prices were never that high, anyway.
Oh well. I've wasted money on something I thought for sure would be worth learning to do. 😕 I guess I'll have to stick with making my own. Not that I'll ever use all the photos I have for just mine.

I'm going to try a craft/hack I've seen done on YouTube numerous times (okay, so it's the same clip, but so what?). I'll let you know how it turns out.
-
I am thinking that - other than not being at TH (like a Dunkin Donuts) or somewhere else other than at home - I'm thinking this being "stuck" at home for days without an end in sight might actually be good for me.
I might actually get so bored I both write something WORTH PUBLISHING and learn something new on YOUTUBE.

WoW. So we just had our first online prayer meeting with Facebook live. I have to say it was very nice to not have to get all dressed up (well, not like I do for Sundays) in order to attend. I have a cold (donut worry, its a REAL COLD, not COVID--19) to be there. It went fairly well.
More people were able to attend.

While the entire planet faces tragedy, we must always remember that God is on our side.

I would say she means our characters interacting with one another. ^_^

Meaning Eastern Time , right?

I feel like such a failure. Writing's not going well. Making book covers is pretty much at a stand-still (I don't know why I bought PS Elements recently). Craft "projects" are only so-so. 😢 😢 😢
-
So I'm downloading a trial version of a photo-editing program that's taking a while (it's a BIG program). I can hardly wait to start using it. I'm hoping and planning to BUY it in the next month or so.
I'm wondering, too, if any of you have need of a book cover or two? I can make and sell them for less than $10 if that works.
-
I'm glad someone else understands, @PenName. I'm still thinking about maybe getting rid of it altogether, though. I'll admit, though... I'm not thinking about it anymore than before.

I'm sorry to keep asking questions I should probably know the answers to but I don't remember what publishing credits are?
