this is what happens when i think i updated

and didn't

May reminded me that I squeed about my ISBN and then never said more on that.

I got the proof last week -- there's something awesome about holding it in your hands.

It's smaller (thinner) than I expected, but I have to remind myself, it's half as many pages because it's printed on both sides.

There's a lot of 'oopsie' errors, like page numbers printing weird and some pages on the wrong sides, but it's awesome all the same.

And shiny. The cover is mainly red-orange (it's a picture of the sunset I took out the library window some weeks ago), and the shininess makes it ultra shiny.

So that is where I am on the poetry book. I need to revamp a few things, send in the corrections and get the proof v.2 and hopefully be ready to roll ^_^

Oh! And license plates... the actual plates came in for the baby car, so parked side by side in the lot right now are ERESTOR & GLRFNDL... pictures forthcoming. I took them, but... left the camera in the car. OH! and time for The Apprentice! Gotta go!

yes, but you beat me by, like, a long long time... because I remember checking your book out to people back when I worked at the public library and seeing it at ReReads and stuff... so you score extra points for just doing it

instead of me

who spent a decade writing ThunderCats fics & Elf smut

so you TOTALLY kick my ass when it comes to getting things out in a timely manner

...with my luck, I'll spend the next ten years editing...
