My first shipment of books came in the mail on Monday and they look nice. The cover art looks pretty much like the cover art on my web page right now, but the title banner is a little different.
It feels nice to actually hold my book in my hands. Right now, it doesn’t seem entirely real. I look at the book, a real book, and have to tell myself, “You wrote this.”
The next step in this novel journey is to send the book out for review, which is how I’m spending all my free time this week. With any luck, I’ll get a couple of nice ones to put on the back of the book before the first official print run. (The copies I have right now are proofs and advanced review copies.)
