Well Crap! It’s another Monday so I guess that means it’s time for another MONDAY UPDATE:
So. Much. Happening.
PRINT-
Books 1, 2 & 3 are in the proofing stage. I should receive the proofs in the mail by Wednesday of this week and then I will go from there.
3.5 is in the capable hands of the ever so lovely Lia Rees over at freeyourwords and has already been formatted for the page. Well, the internals have anyways. She got that done in record time people. All she has to do is the back cover and that one will be ready for print too.
Incidentally, 3.5 is available for preorder on Amazon now. In addition, I’m not sure how it happened, but for some reason Amazon didn’t like the release date of February 10th. It decided my book is coming out February 9th instead. When I tried to tell Amazon, noooo it’s supposed to be the 10th, the website told me noooo it’s the 9th and if you try to change it you won’t be able to set up any of your books for preorder for a year, so 😛
Okay Amazon. You win this time… and by default so do you guys because you’re getting Masked & Miserable a whole day early.
COVERS-
The covers for book 4 Tattered & Torn and book 5 Fractured & Formidable, are done. No you don’t get to see them yet. Yes I know that makes me a total bitch. It’s okay, I can live with that. All in good time, all in good time.
EDITS-
Book 4 came out of it’s first round of edits on Saturday and I’ve been going over it. I’m three chapters in and have added over 1,000 words to the manuscript so it’s going to have to go in for a second round of edits before my Sacred Circle gets their hands on it to beta read it. I’m lucky none of my Sacred Circle lives in my state. I’m afraid I would get a hearty kick in the cooter if they did. It is not news any of those girls wanted to hear.
Book 5 has gone in for the first round of edits but my editor got a more well rounded manuscript with that one so I don’t think it will need to go in for a round two. We shall see when it comes out of round two if I decide to go as rewrite happy with it as I apparently am going on book 4.
APPEARANCES –
I am gearing up for my first live book selling and signing on February 7th at the AFK Elixirs & Eatery in Renton, WA so if you live here… Mark your calendar! There are going to be a lot of fantastic local indie authors at this thing both selling and signing their work so you don’t want to miss it!
OTHER RANDOM CRAP –
I’m busy. In addition to edits and rewrites on the MC series I am working on a Military romance stand alone project that, right now, appears that it will be a novella. It has nothing to do with the SHMC or MC’s in general but is turning out to be a sweet story. I’ll let you know more about it when I know more about it.
That seems to be it for what I have to tell you this week! I’ll see you next time.
