Okay, so after I received my books, I noticed a few things that needed changing. I also gave the picture a vector treatment. This gives an abstract feel to the image concept. Lots of space on the back cover. I'll add blurbs after I receive them. I plan to go through LULU, and Amazon via LULU's distribution program. I'm currently raising the money to print a few thousand copies. I'll then sell directly from the site.

They're here!!!!

Just received the first eight copies of my novel! They look kewl. I need to make a few adjustments here and there, and then I'll set 'em free. The initial eight are not for sell. I have to send these babies out for review. What's weird, is now I'm more scared then ever. What if people hate it? Mind games...

Waiting for my advance copies!

For those who don't know, I received the final edit on my manuscript. This is a novel that I actually completed back in 1997. Sure, I edited it a couple of times... 5, but I wanted to have a professional scrub-job done on the manuscript. My cover is mostly done, though there are a few things I need to add. Anyway, I sent the almost done cover and the manuscript; both in pdf format, off to the printers. I'll get eight copies in the mail in about a week or so.

Two copies will go to the Library of Congress. I'm sending four off for review by other authors. That will leave me with two copies left. Mom gets a signed copy of coarse. I plan to visit the local book stores, setup some book signings and what not. After everything is ready, I'll have the books printed up, and start pounding the pavement.
