Hello "Wings of the Pirate" supporters!
I have been asked a good question by one of the supporters:
"Can you please tell me when the book I ordered back about 6 months ago will be mailed?????"
That is an excellent question!
Thank you so much for your order and support of my new adventure book "Wings of the Pirate". Without you it wouldn’t have hit its preorder goal of 250 copies. The publisher I am working with (Inkshares) on this title is a crowd supported publisher. The author runs a preorder campaign and if they hit their goal, the publisher knows there is interest in the book and they publish it. I turned in my completed manuscript to them after my campaign was completed and now they are in the process of publishing the book. Production includes: editing, cover design, formatting and proofing, etc.
I was informed that they are currently working on a lot of titles and mine should be completed in about 8-12 months. Ugh, that’s as long as my traditional NY Publisher takes with my novels. My primary goal with publishing with Inkshares was to gain connections to their Film/TV agent UTA (United Talent Agency) who is one of the top three agencies in Los Angeles. I’m working toward making my stories into films, so this was an important step. I will keep you updated as the info is presented to me.
Thank you for your patience,
Sincerely, Eric H. Heisner

Is it obvious by how much my knees are shaking that I’m new here? I’m not going to lie, I’m absolutely terrified to be doing this. I’ve shared my books with several friends and beta readers, but I feel as though this is the first time I’m taking it to the potential of a wider audience - not too sure how everyone deals so well with the nerves of throwing your baby in the ring.
