Still tapping away.

Well here I still am.  I felt like I had bitten off more than I could chew with my second novel.  The storylines are all in my head but it is just the act of getting them down on paper (or screen) that is the tricky bit. There are so many plates spinning at the moment my head is spinning with them. One by one each storyline is being played out and slowly I am getting to the half way point where like the series of Keifer Sutherlands 24, a new and deeper story starts.  Thats the plan anyway.  Watch this space. 

As a reminder here are the links to book one

Godammit!!!

Just signed up with an outlet called Smashwords, it lets you upload your book and they distribute to other E readers.  I have stuck with it, and am nearly there, but I have never known such a frustrating process. You would think that what you see on a page and what you can read perfectly clear on a page is what would come across when you upload it. Jesus christ I have nearly ditched the smashwords site because of issue ofter issue, formatting is wrong, spacing and indents are all wrong, copyright wording, and it presents a problem when you have spent about fifteen minutes uploading a new and adjusted version. On kindle it was fine, worked first time and looks great. Gradually I have sorted each issue bar one. Apparently one of the formats automatically spots any page that begins with the word 'Chapter' and makes a contents link for you. Great stuff, except that it cannot see my chapter 3 page heading, which is set out in exactly the same way as chapters 1,2,-, 4 all the way to 16, when you download and read it, the chapter is there, ust no link in the contents table. An email has been sent but I have wasted nearly a week of evenings trying to sort this out. It is available on smashwords.com through a limited number of their publishers, but sorting this problem will put my book into their premium catalog, and will expose it to more of their outlets. FFS!!!

I have also revamped my paperback interior for Renatus, I clicked on the large print option for the original version and although it looks great, it was a bit boxy to me.  I downsized the font and it has transformed it. Renatus in paperback is now available again on the amazon sites as is the kindle version.  I have also uploaded it to a site called feedaread.com, they deal in paperbacks only and I'm currently in a days long queue waiting for them to convert and accept my files. When they do I can move on and finish the cover and get it all proofed( I hope)...   Nite all.

Wahey....!!

Yippee, For this month I have got one sale each for my paperback and kindle version of my book Renatus.  It doesn't sound a lot but it means there have been sales in each of the three months it's been out.
If you have seen my posts then please check out the link and see if we can build some momentum for it. There's a guy in the states who released his book and it has sold nearly 5000 in one month.  I can only dream of months like that.  ;)Renatus
