I am very happy to let you know that we are almost there. Little by little illustrations and text have come together, balancing colours and information to make it look the best it can. And I love it! A few details need to be corrected, then by tomorrow it is out to the press. Being new in this trade I totally underestimated the time needed to get everything together. I will let you know as soon as it is in press…you will probably hear me celebrating wherever in the world you are 😉
At one point I really thought it was going to be possible to hold the printed book in my hands before Christmas, so it was a bit frustrating having to postpone. I suppose every step of the process of self-publishing needs its time and will present its issues, but at least I am still in the scheduled time for the book launch on the website. By the way, I have been thinking of organising a book launch party here in Sheffield. For now I believe most followers are international, but maybe this way I’ll get to meet, and get known by, the locals. The question is, a party in the early afternoon with coffee/tea and cakes, or a party in the late afternoon with wine and nibbles? More about it later…
