You're probably surprised to see a post here after I had said that I'm taking today off from blogging and would be back with another post next week. Well, at the last minute, I switched my day off to next Monday. I knew you'd be expecting the print edition of "The Trespassers", my new short-read of alien terror, to release by the weekend. As you probably noticed, it didn't release. I wanted to explain the reason for the delay: I haven't released the print version yet because I had forgotten all about having to look over a proof of it.
Before I release "Trespassers" as a print book or paperback, I have to look at a proof, or unofficial sample copy, of it. I don't want to leave anybody with a badly printed and formatted book and so I want to look at it before making it available for purchase anywhere. I have to order the proof which will probably take at least three days to reach me by mail. So, it may be another week or so until the print version releases.
Another thing I want to tell you about the print version is that I can't release it through Draft 2 Digital (D2D) like I had thought. Even though I was planning to make it available in venues beyond Amazon, it's going to be available only there as far as online stores go. To make it available through other online retailors, I would have to go through D2D in which I tried doing but, when I uploaded the manuscript for print, a message popped up saying that the book had to be a minimum of 64 pages. "Trespassers" is only half that amount (about 32). So, at least for now, if you want it in print then you'll have to purchase it at Amazon when it releases. I'll be sure to let you know when it does. If you can't wait another week for the print version, there's the ebook for now.
Again, my Monday off from blogging has been postponed to next week. So, look out for another post here in two weeks.
Until then . . .
