Well, the good news I have to report is that I've officially submitted the paperback edition of BY THE PALE MOONLIGHT for acceptance. At this point, it will take another day or two for the publisher to review it...then, if everything is on the up and up, I'll receive a sample copy to make sure there aren't any snafus in the final hard copy...and then BAM. I give the approval, and it will go on sale.
So YAY. I'm so close to finishing up the "logistics" for book 1. And you know what that means... I can go full blast on book 2. Which I'm SO excited about.
These past few weeks have been so unbelievably crazy. There are so many little things that you have to think about when you self-publish. Covers...book jackets...cover copy...author bios, blah blah blah. It's just so much. I've felt overwhelmed more times than I can count. And that's where my friends have really stepped in to help. I can't begin to explain how thankful I am.
For each and every person who took the time to read my book and offer suggestions--be it big picture issues or simple copy edits.. THANK YOU.
For my friends who have taken on things like book covers, and book trailers, and the latest...my website (YES--I'm going to have a website!)...THANK YOU. You've gone above and beyond and it truly touches me that you believe in me so much that you're willing to put up with my.. Can you move the title down a smidge?...What if we tried it this way?... and all of my other zany demands...THANK YOU.
For those of you who have simply said to me, "Jen, what can I do to help?" Thank you.
It's a scary/exciting process to put myself out there. Just knowing I have support--that I'm not alone--means the world.
There are some exciting things coming up soon--I'll keep y'all in the loop. When I know, you will too. :)

Congratulations Jen!! Can't wait to see the website [g]
I'm always scared that since I copy edit so much, I'll put something out there and people will find a missing comma or erroneous apostrophe and laugh.......
