So in today’s Seventh Age update I’m going to write about some of the production stuff and projects I’m trying to assemble prior to the book launch on 11/1/2016.
After the Editing:
- Cover Design is still underway.
- I keep staring at my actual website and don’t have a friggin’ clue what to do with it.
- Wrote an actual acknowledgement.
- Placed my claim that all spiders need to be destroyed.
- Anddd.. all the Grand Patrons who ordered the book using handles, character names, or odd-ball emails: I have a particular set of skills, and I will find you. Processed Meatman will be printed in the back of the book.
- Actually... Processed Meatman is pretty damn hilarious. It stays.
Looking for artists!
I will pay you for commissions related to the Seventh Age! Email me at CrankyBolt@gmail.com if you are interested in helping with art. My website is in vast need of an overhaul, and I’m trying to collect artwork related to the book so I can flesh some things out, make a better book trailer, and swoon over artistic ability that I have not.
The Quest to 1000:
We, and I from the bottom of my heart, I mean we; have almost reached 1000 copies. This is a huge milestone for any first time author. On Inkshares, it also has a special significance. 1000 copies before meant your book qualified for full publishing on it’s own outside of a contest. I think it’s a pretty important statement to make if we can prove that The Seventh Age could make it all the way there before publication on 11/1.
I haven’t issued a direct call-to-action for a while and now that the book is actually coming out in a few months I think this milestone is worth it. If you know anyone who would enjoy an unrelenting, action packed urban fantasy tale: Send them here. The #1 way people buy books is by recommendations.
Until next week!
