Follow a Dream, all the way to Somewhere or is it Nowhere?

So recently Shana Hammaker decided to not go the route of being traditional published and keep to self publishing giving her more control and less bullshit to go through with finding the right publisher, doing a perfect query letter(which are pure crap by the way) and going out of her way to really promote and push this.

I hope this small thing I can do helps in some way, using wrestling as an example as I normally do we go, we watch, we follow and help in some small way to follow the dreams of the people who wrestle and even work behind the scenes.

Eamon is doing what he loves with Inspire, Stroud now, not only writes about wrestling but is part of a company and bullied by wrestlers. They all worked hard to get there but they all had people support them. Hell people still support them and others. 

This is Shana's dream. I hope she gets the same respect from people and they see all the work she is putting into this, her first full novel.  I hope.

So first things, first for this novel she had created several twitter and facebook accounts and if you would do a simple and easy thing and follow them or join them it would be a huge deal for her and takes next to nothing from her friends and followers. Talking about it to others would be great too but following is a start..

First off, the whole fictional town and the people have a blog! Follow it for updates and to get to know the people before the book.  

What is going on in Somewhere? 

That is the link to the blog, follow it. Read it and let her know what you think and what you would like to see talked about?

Also YOU can become a Friend of Somewhere! Be Our Friend!

The town of Somewhere has its own newspaper and what better place to turn to to find out more about the town and what is going on...Fern is the main reporter so keep up with her facebook page here:

Fern's Facebook 

Hi, I am Fern

But what about TWITTER!?? I know your asking, well there Shana HERSELF keeps you updated on the ROY G BIV Highway and other smaller things like Actify and Hope.  What is Actify? How does it tie into hope? Find out here...

Shana's VERY OWN TWITTER!!!! 

On another note, Follow Shana is always a treat, she will use twitter is so many more ways, sometimes about issues she feels strongly about, other times just as a way to type WHATEVER crosses her mind, almost stream of conscious like...So even if your only a bit curious about Somewhere, there is way more there.

All that said, she does have previous books, both short fiction stories and even TWO memoirs that talk about her life on the streets and part of what lead to that. You can buy them on her Amazon page and keep the page marked for the upcoming book that we are pushing here.

BUY SHANA'S STUFF!!!!! 

I can say that reading her stuff made me want to meet her and I am very glad I did. Buying her stuff helps her of course but also it gives you a good read and she has several types of stories so hopefully there is something for you there.

Now your asking, say I buy the Memoirs and I enjoy them or even if I hate them but want to see if she is doing better or worse? How do I find out?  Well, I have the answer for you. She has a  BLOG! She is a writer people, I hope you saw that coming.

So go here: What is Shana up to these days? to get her full thoughts and what she is doing now.

As are her stories and books!
