You post a lot as it is. Setting up a separate place seems to really cut into your writing/marketing time. Several people suggested picking a day to focus on the memoir writing, you could do that. Like Helena said, I can't wait to read the memoir. :) Marshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08010048187355215576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9078064962090919088.post-47704489407452020442020-03-05T05:37:58.023-05:002020-03-05T05:37:58.023-05:00Hi JQ, you've built up a following on this blo...Hi JQ, you've built up a following on this blog and readers of your novels (including me!) will be interested in your memoir.

You have regular followers here. You could choose special days for each subject. Every Friday for the memoir and combine it with Thursdays, then have Mondays and Tuesdays for creative non-fiction. Or not.
