You'd think the Rutters'd tell me this stuff...
Thursday, May 10, 2007

Kay... so, I wrote this book.
Goin' on six months now, since I first started. It's done'n dead, It's wrote all up, all hundred and ten pages.
First off, I was fixin' to write a novel- three hundred pages or so, ne? By the third month of four, they told me that I had a hundred page limit.
Bastards.
So, I had to change the plot from the crucial turning point and take out a good seventy-five pages already writ. I managed to get it done- albiet with an ENTIRELY different ending then I'd plan- guess I'll hafta write a sequel, eh? Yeah, I'm kiddin'myself, I know. Let a guy have his dreams!
Now, it is May. They (Xlibris, the Publishing Co that no one can pronounce properly), said that the book would be out in May. It's May. I fail to see a book with my name on it in Borders, or on Amzazon. I think that they neglected to tell me'n the other authors about this lil' tidbit, eh?
I have no CLUE when it comes out- just May. Maybe the middle. Maybe the 31st. Maybe it's already out, and I just have no sense of direction.
But, I'm starting to think that there's an information gap here...
Still, who am I? What right have I to know? After all, I only wrote the damned thing...
Rants over, folks. Ya'll can leave the bomb shelters... ;)

Danny...what I meant by "supposedly" is that the publisher said it's been printed up and is on its way to stores, but it hasn't shown up yet. I have faith you actually wrote something that got picked up;)

Whaddya mean, 'Supposedly'? HAVE YOU NO FAITH IN ME!?!?!?!
Name is "Those who Inherit the Will of the Damned".
Yeah, it's uber long, but I have a serious problem with finding good names. So, I just find long ones that work marginally well.
If I can get a pic of the cover, I will.

Well...congrats on having something written and published (supposedly), Danny! Pints all around to celebrate:D

On the lack of book-on-shelves front? That's just a pile of go se, mi amigo. 'Less they meant May '08 or something. BTW, what's the name of this magnum opus you and others have crafted?
