Review & Description

Royalty Check, Reality Check is a series of humor essays on writing the best possible novel and choosing between traditional and self-publishing.

Each part of the series runs about 40 book pages.

Part 1: Lover’s Leap starts you on the journey—evaluating which novel is most likely to succeed, outlining to avoid the Big Fail, and ignoring that inner beast that tells you to give up and stick to watching Real Housewives of Orange County.

Essays in Lover’s Leap:

Literary Lotharios
Using outlines to decide which story to march down the publishing aisle

Destination Procrastination
Finishing your novel despite the temptation to do, well, most anything else

Forget the Rules and Make the Leap
An impractical guide to taking risks in writing and in life
