On May 8th 2016, my family and I woke up to find our LG freezer frozen and our refrigerator not working. We believed we have left the freezer open overnight. Instead of searching for a repair service, I’ve decided to go to the source and contact LG directly. Since it was Sunday, I’ve contacted LG via their website, and chose the appointment for next day.

Why am I not posting more?
Even though the struggle continues, lately it has been less of an artist's struggle, and more of a publisher's struggle. I'm considering ending this blog. This blog has been about everything, but I have found it is more convenient for everyone if I have a separate blog for each topic.
Therefore, I have:
Art: Help!--which I have not updated in ages, but which will help artists figure out some concepts and techniques. I promise to get to this blog when things settle down a bit.
Mili Fay: Adventures In Publishing--which is about my publishing journey. It may help other authors and illustrators. It is also a place where you can find out about free promos. Such as the one I'm having on Saturday. :-)
Mili Fay: Mini-MEs--where I post every single Mini-ME I create. This is what I do when I need to take a break from other forms of art. :-)
and finally:
Is DIGITAL ART better than TRADITIONAL ART?--where I'm trying to solve the dilemma for myself and others. So far, I like Digital Art for sketching (on a cintiq of course) and Traditional Art for finished pieces, because I have a beautiful piece of art I can sell. With digital art, all you get are art prints. :-(
Artists struggle to success has been more of a diary and a hodge-podge of ideas. Lately I do not know what to post here.
If you have any ideas of what you would like to see on this blog, please let me know. Otherwise, it may be time to say goodbye.
Love,

MILI FAY'S ADVENTURES IN PUBLISHING: Marketing Challenge
Now that my book is published and looking perfect, my greatest struggle is getting it in front of my audience, a.k.a. MARKETING.
I'm all over the Internet, but though I connect with other authors and artists, I'm not reaching the people who want to buy my book.
How do I know who these people are?
I truly believe that everyone would love my book, but not everyone NEEDS my book. To find your audience you need to know who falls in the second category. By going to markets and fairs I have discovered that people who purchase my book have young children in their lives; they are parents, grandparents, teachers...
So, I should be targeting mommy blogs, baby and children's stores, schools... But how do I reach people without coming across as a self-serving creep?
I have no idea.
Thankfully, I have just discovered something called a Book Marketing Challenge. It begins this Monday, May 5th, so if you want to get the FREE Silver Pass and check it out: http://buildabusinesswithyourbook.com/access/aff/go/mili_fay
I have just signed up for Gold Membership so what you see above is my affiliate link.
I honestly hope it helps me out, because doing everything on my own is a tad overwhelming. ;-)
I'll blog about my experience, so if you have any questions let me know.
Cheers!
