The Bra-See-Ay

 The Bra-See-Ay is the name of my weekly blog. It is a play on the word brassiere. Bras and panties take on a key role in my novel, so it all comes back to that.

This blog is a place to entertain all kinds of silliness and to have fun. Learn something new, think outside the box, participate in contests, and get to know more about me, T.J. Corman.  

Begging the Universe

Be kind, be nice, don’t judge. I have faith. 

Every morning when I would leave for work, my husband would tell me to be nice. I told him that I got paid to be nice! I’m an expert at it.

There’s a lot of fear associated with publishing a novel, especially if it’s a novel you have self-published. When you self-publish, you are the author, the editor, the marketing executive, the chief bottle-washer. You get what I mean. You are in charge of EVERYTHING. It’s a good thing I’m bossy because I like being in charge of everything. However, when publishing is not what you are used to doing for a living, it can be difficult. You have to wear all the hats all the time. The learning curve isn’t just a steep hill; it’s a mountain.

So, while I scraped up the courage to put this project together and release it to the world, I’ve been begging the universe to be kind. Be kind, be nice, don’t judge me. I have faith.

I know people will judge the work. I also know that I can’t take that judgement personally. It is not a direct reflection on me. Right? But if a good review reflects beautifully on me, then doesn’t a poor review reflect badly? No. My current mantra is to be disciplined about what I respond to and react to. It’s scary putting myself out there for the world to see and judge. The best I can hope is that people will like my work and respond favourably.

That’s it for now. Have yourself the best day. I’ll speak to you again tomorrow.

​Teaser alert! I have a game for you to play tomorrow, along with a give-away!
