Well, you've read the notes, the notes had blurbage, and now it is time for you to post until the blurbed cows come home.

TCB - designing the interior means Grant takes my Word manuscript and finds a font, formats it into book size, designs the chapter headings (and in this book, sub-headings) and anything to do with the interior.  He's done all my books except the Kritzer books.

I'm still waffling about adding the cover to the notes I just posted - what do you think?

It will be up for pre-order in about a week-and-a-half anyway.

If you're not sure, you could post it here and not in your notes.

Great blurb by Mr. Sherman.  It makes you want to read it.

Thank you.  Something else I never realized was required.

Yes, I guess I'll wait till Friday to reveal the cover and title.  Blurbing this one is tricky because I really don't want to give away too much.  Writing the flap copy will be equally difficult, I think, in regards to giving too much away.  Part of the fun of this is coming to it without much knowledge.

I shall wait quite patiently for the official release!

I never realized how much is required besides just writing the damn book.

It rained very hard three separate times tonight and woke me up each time, so here I am on page one.

TOD:

I haven't enjoyed a Bruce Willis performance in a few years, not since RED or Grindhouse.

Before that, however, I used to enjoy him quite a bit.

We watched INFERNO with Tom Hanks last night.

It's an okay chase movie; great scenery.  However, the plot is very confusing and the accents of some of the actors does not make it any easier to understand.

Thankfully, my wife had read the book, so every now and then we paused the movie and she explained to me what was going on.
