Why The Scribbling Sea Sprite

I started this blog to help promote my new publishing company Scribblers and Ink Spillers, LLC. Publishing talented writers work is something that I have been thinking about for several years. Then two months ago, I was talking to a friend about it and he was all enthusiastic. Synergy as we talked about how it could be and work and all that. I took the ball and ran with it.

At first, we were going to go into business together, but as I researched all the legal requirements and stuff, I decided that it was easier for me to form the company and just hire him to help me with the editing.

So, here I am the proud Chief Executive Manager of Scribblers and Ink Spillers, LLL incorporated in the state of Florida as of June 1.

I got the website redesigned and launched. Now, all I have to do is sit back and wait for the submissions to roll in. Yeah, right. What's up next is figuring out how to get my publishing business listed with all those lovely sites that list paying markets .....

And I'm off and running

Oh, I almost forgot. Why The Scribbling Sea Sprite? To confuse my friends even more. I'm DancingFaerie on Fantasy-writers.org; Beach Bunny on Absolute Write; Bunny on my own forum .... Just kidding. Scribbling is from my publishing company. Sea Sprite comes from my fondness for faeries (<--- proper British spelling) and a series of images that I have in my head of faeries that live and play by the ocean. One of these days, I will paint the images in my head.

Gosh, I do ramble on ....

    Another "YAY" for getting the zine up and running, and a "Wooo" for the funky looking blog. Very minimalist.

    Big hugs,

  2. Blogger! I see a Blogger! Cool - what a lovely layout! And hey,my stories are all too long, but I might submit me a little poetry. I find I don't have enough rejection in my life. :)

    Congrats on getting the ball rolling, Diana. I see big things ahead! Big things! (and I'm not talking about your fluffy white tail!)

  3. "Funky looking blog" *haughty sniff* This is the HARBOR template and it goes with the sea theme.

    Thanks, Adam. *hugs*

    Bettie, Poetry is good. And I will also be publishing novellas, probably in the Fall.
