So the proof for Desert Stars<\/strong> came in the mail today, and it looks great!<\/p>\n

It’s available now from CreateSpace<\/a>, if you want to pick up a copy. \u00a0If you’d rather buy it on Amazon, it should go live there in a few days. \u00a0And if you want to buy an autographed copy of this one or\u00a0Genesis Earth,<\/strong> let me know ASAP: I can order author copies and ship them wherever you want me to, but I’m leaving again for Georgia at the end of August, so I can only do that for the next two or three weeks.<\/p>\n

As for\u00a0Star Wanderers: Part II,<\/strong> I finished the major revisions just yesterday, and plan to go through it again this next week before publishing, mostly to fix typos and get it ready for publication. \u00a0There weren’t too many story issues, but my first readers helped me to see a couple of areas where things were unclear (especially Laura<\/a>–thanks for the awesome feedback!).<\/p>\n

After going through this latest draft, I’ve got to say I am way<\/em> excited to finish Part III and Part IV. \u00a0It’s going to take a little more work, and it’ll definitely need some feedback before publishing, but I think I can have the first round of revisions done before the end of August. \u00a0A couple of scenes are missing, and there are some key elments I need to change, but I definitely know where this story is going and I’m excited to tell it!<\/p>\n

That’s about it for now. \u00a0I’ve gotten some initial feedback from my first readers on\u00a0Stars of Blood and Glory,<\/strong> and so far it’s been surprisingly positive. \u00a0I may post the prologue here for you guys, or release it as an extra through the newsletter. \u00a0The unpublished prologue for\u00a0Bringing Stella Home<\/strong> would also make good newsletter content too, come to think of it…<\/p>\n

Electronic publishing is like playing a really awesome video game. \u00a0Once things get going and you really start getting into it, you just don’t want to stop!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
