A Huge Thanks to the Readers of Writing Bestsellers

Many of you will have heard by now that Suite101 is undergoing major structural and managerial changes to become a paying site for writers. Because of this, publishing has been suspended for a short time. I hope to be returning and writing more articles for you on Writing Bestsellers. If I don't return (everything seems to be up in the air at the moment) I will set up a personal site where I will continue to research and write articles on this topic for anyone who's interested. I am fascinated by the mystique surrounding the making of bestsellers. I have my own personal take on what makes a bestseller and how they happen, and yes sometimes I'm right and sometimes I'm wrong, but it makes my own personal struggle toward producing entertaining fiction all the more challenging and fun. Writing fiction is a constant learning experience and I have learned much from writing these articles. During my stint here at Suite101 I have seen three of my short stories sell. And one even made it to a bestseller list! Meanwhile, my fiction is available at fictionwise.com and trafford.com and if anyone would like to get in touch with me my email is DeborahLCannon@aol.com

Thanks to all of you who have come to visit my site and have participated in my polls and contests. I hope that my articles over the last two and a half years have been a help in your writing pursuits. To those of you who participated in the contests, I just want to say that I was impressed with the quality of the writing. You are all talented writers. Best Wishes,

Deborah

P.S. If you are stuck for ideas for a Holiday gift this year, please consider buying my novel, THE RAVEN'S POOL. One dollar from the sale of each book will be donated to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. I will be sending in the donation as a lump sum on November 22, the date of my agent's death from breast cancer. The book is available from Amazon.com and Chapters.ca Thanks so much to those who have contributed!
