It's an interesting road, no matter how to take it, no matter how you get there. I've been submitting queries, writing synopses, writing new books, honing my craft, and a bunch of other activities. I even have serious interest from a publisher--Shadow Mountain. But nothing is set, and I'm beginning to wonder about the probability of success through the new epublishing models on Amazon.com. I'm even thinking of focusing this blog, or a new one, on adventures in publishing, or my road to publication.
How do you determine what to write about? What has your path to publication been like?

LTUE and ePublishing
I attended LTUE this weekend. That's a writing conference at BYU. I learned a ton about writing, spent time with some fantastic friends, including Lisa Mangum, author of the Hourglass Door trilogy, author and entrepreneur Dave Farland, Tracy Hickman, and a host of others.
Talked about how my book is in a positive holding pattern at Shadow Mountain.
And learned a great deal about how the publishing market, especially ePublishing, is changing. With Amanda Hawking selling 450,000 some-odd books online only in the last few months, I'm impressed and giving serious consideration to going that route myself. Thoughts on the road to self publishing?
