So, I just received a cover sample from Jason as well as a cropped section that can go up on the blog. The plan is for Legends of Windemere: Ritual of the Lost Lamb to go live in early May. Not the first week, but soon after. Another wrinkle is that I’m getting really nervous about this book. Part of me wants to run a 5th edit for word choice and quality. I don’t think I’ll have enough time since I can’t put the breaks on the current project. This is more for the Saturday blog post, so I’ll get right to the main event:

A reminder that I’m always taking volunteers for the ‘Book is Live’ post. I currently have 13 permanent volunteers, but you can never have enough.

Great cover art! I really like it. Sounds like you’re dealing with a bit of nerves. No worries, I’m sure it’ll be fantastic! 🙂

Nice. Sorry to hear about the cold feet — I’m sure the book is great 🙂

I hope so. The moving away from happy stuff and many cameos fuels my doubt. I’ve gone back time and again. Might just be me.

I think I’m already on the list of volunteers. Memory can be a bit off, though. Anyway, looking forward to the new one (though I still have yet to read the last 3…I have the last 3, sure, but have been working on stuff and wishing I could multitask a bit more efficiently). Also, the piece of the cover that’s here looks awesome!

I believe you are. Not on my laptop to check right now, but I remember writing your name down. I know what you mean about the multitasking. Honestly, it’s never enough. There’s always something that has to be sacrificed or fall behind.

Thanks. Now to figure out the best release date if it’s finished by next Friday. Going to be tough since next weekend is a mess and the following Monday isn’t any better. Just . . . can’t . . . win.

Yeah, I’m struggling with my own phobia of a summer release (or two).

I might have it be on the 12th to be safe. Mostly because that Monday is a dentist visit, which can destroy my week.

Hmmmm. Find a way to promote my books by using dental health? Lich-flavored dental floss it is!

That big spotlight could relay some subliminal messages while the drilling is going on.
