Okay, so I expected it to be a busy month.
I just didn’t expect it to be THIS busy…
So this is mostly a post where I’m going to whinge and complain about how much I hate formatting, editing, and preorders.
First, preorders…
(…totally NOT a smokescreen to showcase the fact that Shards of a Broken Sword: The Complete Trilogy (Amazon, Kobo, B&N, iTunes, Smashwords) is on preorder special for JUST 99c guys!)
Eeek! Just 99c!
I love preorders. I love that I can upload a draft as a placeholder and have people one-click to preorder so that they don’t forget about my new release. I do. I love it.
But I’m an obsessive-compulsive little writer with easy access to my KDP (and other) accounts. Which means that I’m in there every half hou–haha, did I say half hour? I meant every half DAY. Every half DAY, guys, I swear, hahahaeeeerrr–checking how many preorders there are now.
Soooooo…well, that one’s a mixed blessing.
Formatting…
…kill me now.
Enough said.
Editing.
This one’s another mixed blessing. I love the fact that by the time I’m editing, I’ve written a whole book. It’s done. It just needs polishing. I mean, it needs a LOT of polishing, but the foundations are laid. There’s hope.
Only, at the moment, I’m formatting SoaBS, doing last, frantic edits for SoaBS, editing BatEoY, and trying to finish writing Blackfoot…
I’m kinda edited out.
So I’m alternating editing with my Korean studies. That’s right, I’m taking a break from editing by studying.
That should tell ya something.
Anyhoo-
I hope you all enjoy the SoaBS omnibus, and don’t forget that if you wanna read the exclusive short story of Carmine & Fancy, and you already own all three of the SoaBS trilogy–sign up to my mailing list! There’s a free book to be had, but more importantly, peeps on the mailing list will also get access to that exclusive story.
If you’re already on the list–congrats! You’ll get access to the story in my next mailing!
