Well, in the wee hours of last Friday, I managed to finish the draft of the eighth book, A New World: Conspiracy. Since then I have been glued to the keyboard going through the first edits and finished those today. I now have this rectangular white spot in my vision. The manuscript has been carefully placed in the editor’s hands to let the magic be worked. By the way, I suck at editing. Which is unfortunate as I really enjoy it – read sarcasm.
The cover has almost been completed and I’ll share a sneak preview of it very soon. When will it be finished and released you ask? Excellent question. The answer – I don’t know. When the rough boulder of a draft I sent comes back gleaming and polished, I’ll have to format it for publication which takes months. Kidding – it will take a day and then it will take up to 12 hours after I upload it to Amazon before it’s ready for purchase. For the other online distributors, this could take a couple of weeks before it starts showing up. I’m sure you all followed that but if you’re not baffled yet, I could throw in some math equations.
So, what does this all really mean? I’m expecting the book to be ready for release in about a week. Yes, I know, I could have just said that.
As always, I really want to thank you for all of your support and messages. They are one of the highlights of my day. Waking is another. Wait, no it’s not. Yes, I need more caffeine. However, Battlefield 4 came out today so I must bid you adieu. I hope your week treats you well and brings your dreams to life – if they’re good ones that is.
