Hello and welcome!
I’m so glad you’ve found my blog.
I’m D.C. Salmon – author of The Newman Adventure mystery series – and this is where I document my journey as a new indie author, navigate the unpredictable world of self-publishing, and share the stories I’m passionate about creating.
Whether you're a fan of mystery and adventure, a fellow aspiring author, or simply curious about what goes on behind the scenes of indie publishing, you’re in the right place.
π What to Expect from This Blog
I aim to keep things real. I post a new blog every Friday, and here’s what you can typically expect:
-
π§ The Honest Author Journey
A raw look at the life of a debut indie author – the wins, the flops, the surprises, and the learning curve (mistakes included!). -
π Book Updates & Teasers
News on the A Newman Adventure series, including behind-the-scenes content, title reveals, and sneak peeks of what's next. -
π¬ Behind-the-Scenes
Insight into the characters, the real-world places that inspire them (like my hometown of Peterborough), and the details that don’t make it into the final edits. -
✍️ The Writing Life
How I juggle a full-time job, family, and my writing, along with thoughts on creativity, storytelling, and motivation.
