Landon Crutcher sent an update for Monkey Business

What's up and stuff followers of Monkey Business? Hope everyone is doing well. 

As of right now Monkey Business is the first (and I think only) book in the Quill Collection here at Inkshares! That is all because of timing and not because of anything special I did but I'm still excited and proud. I have submitted the manuscript, marketing copy, cover blurbs, bios and everything else to Inkshares (except cover art, that comes a little later after they figure out the actual page count.) So for the next couple weeks the awesome folks at Inkshares will be trying to turn my word vomit into something marketable.

Since Monkey Business will be the first book to go through the "Light Publishing" process I'm assuming there will be some hiccups along the way but right now we're looking at about 5 months until there's a signed book in your hand.

I'll keep you all updated as I move through the process. If you like the book, please share it with friends and if you have a minute please like my writing page on Facebook (linked below.) Thank you all again for the interest and support. As for me know, I move on to the next thing and I may be asking for your input on that soon.

Hugs and kisses and manly fist bumps,

Landon

    Landon Crutcher liked an update for It's All Fun and Games

    Hi Everyone!

    Long time no chat!  Things have been chugging away and this is a good time to let you know what has happened since my last message.

    1) The production team has been assembled.  If you visit the project page and scroll down beneath the supporters you will see who is responsible for what, as well as an overall timeline.  We are evidently 15% through the process, whatever that means.

    2) I had a conference call with my design pro, and they're putting together drafts for the cover.  A special shout out to Amanda Orneck, whose cover carried me through the funding process.  Check out her Inkshares author page for info about her own novels (one of which is already for sale on Amazon.com for the low low price of only $.99!).  

    3) We have a release date (sorta)!  You'll now see on the project page that It's All Fun and Games "publishes July 2016."  I'm not going to lie - I had no idea how much time it takes to professionally produce a novel.  Again, I encourage you to take a look at the production timeline to see what's going on.  Believe it or not, it takes over two months to get the books printed after the finished files have been emailed.  Mind boggling.  In any case, "July" is currently as precise as we get.  There are rumblings that the release may be timed to coincide with Comic-con (yes, THAT Comic-con).  

    4) Most excitingly (more exciting than a release date, to me at least) is that I have received comments on the first draft from my developmental editor, Kiele Raymond.  Kiele is a veteran of Simon and Schuster and a total pro.  Her line edits will make the reading smoother and her big picture suggestions have already begun to make the novel a more fulfilling read.  

    I'll be chugging away on my revision, which is due back to Inkshares in early December.  In the meanwhile, don't forget to check out It's All Fun and Games on Facebook and hook up with me on twitter @llabak.

    Thanks again for your support!

    Cheers
    Dave

      Landon Crutcher recommended An Unattractive Vampire
      I've only just started reading but what a thoroughly enjoyable book! I highly recommend.
      An Unattractive Vampire
      A darkly comic urban fantasy of ancient horrors in suburban cities.
