The proofs are in the pages! |
When I came home last night,
there was a medium-sized box from Amazon. I hadn’t recalled ordering anything,
so I figured it was probably my wife’s.
When I picked up the box, it was WAY heavier than it should be . . .
that’s when I realized what was inside:
BOOKS!
Not just any books, but the
PROOFS for my next release! There are so many little thrills along the way to
publishing, some of which are not seen by everyone else. Finishing a draft,
signing a contract, finishing edits, setting a release date, seeing cover art,
etc.
Holding the proofs is the
next best thing to holding the final product. In some cases, it IS the final
product.
Not this time, though.
There will be one more update
to the cover art to include the quote from James Blaylock. I’ve already seen
the draft updates, and they’re beautiful. There have been so many highs with The Clockwork Detective it’s hard to
believe I’d ever be in this position.
A quick thank you to everyone
who reads my blog, puts up with me on Facebook and/or Twitter, or generally has
to listen to me going on and on about plot, character, pacing, dialogue, or
anything else associated with my writing.
Thank you!
