Don't take my word for it. Check out these posts by publicist and publisher Robin Sullivan and writer David Gaughran.
We live in interesting times, people.
Personally I can't wait to see what happens over the next few months, let alone the next few years. And I'm going to be right there where it's all happening.
My editor has promised to send me her questions, comments and screams of moral outrage this weekend. My cover artist is going to have my cover done mid-May. My aunt, the IT guru, has sent me links for sites on how to format the manuscript myself. Everything's set for Kissed by Darkness to be available on Kindle sometime at the end of May, early June at the latest.
Hang on to your seats, boys and girls. It's going to be one heck of a ride!
You are right, it is interesting times. I am amazed at the energy surrounding e-publishing.
