Mrs. Wade was a peaceful ghostly resident who it is rumored lived in the Wood Duck Inn before it became an inn. Circa 1848.
After doing this podcast, I wonder if she is still there and if it was she who played those spoons. The spoons were accepted as a musical instrument during those times and you could frequently find them being used when families got together to celebrate the various holidays. Many times they were used to accompany songs.
Thanks for listening.
Stay Tuned....... more to come.

We write stories and then decide to either publish them or have them published. In this podcast I relate the different steps and their costs to give you a greater understanding of the publishing industry both traditional and independently published (self-publish). This is not meant to discourage anyone, but to help you understand what really happens when you are in the process. Books are living, breathing entities. Where will yours take you?

INDEPENDENTLY PUBLISHED
That is the term used by Amazon when you publish a book using their site. I have used KDP or Kindle Direct Publishing (Amazon) since I began to self-publish books in 2008.
Stay tuned for the next few weeks to gain a better understanding of what is involved to self-publish and what it means to be a self-published or Independently Published Author.
If you or someone you know is writing a book and doesn’t know what to do next, listen to this podcast. My promise to you is to enlighten you to the process of self-publishing and to help you decide between a traditional route or to become Independently Published.
FYI: Am I qualified to do this podcast? My personal Independently Published history contains 42 of my own books in both e-book and print, and 27+ books for others. (69 total so far)
