Woo-hoo! Down to the last few steps formatting my manuscript, getting ready to upload to Amazon.com. This will be my second novel. Took a ridiculously long time to get to this step. It sat half-written for nearly 20 years and I only got serious about it last fall.

Thanks!
Progress is slow. When I converted the manuscript for publishing I discovered some annoying formatting glitches. So I am having to reformat the whole thing chapter by chapter. Hopefully that will resolve the problems. Still looking at finishing within the week.

Amazon was super-efficient and got the book up in just a couple of hours!
SF/Fantasy genre. Started out as a survivalist manual but morphed over time into an action/adventure novel. So lots of stuff about foraging, hunting, fishing, bow-making. Also betrayals, murders, sword fights, black powder pistols, and a bit of romance. Silly fun stuff that was fun to write.

They worship nothing. They say it's because nothing is worth fighting for. Like this tiny ad:
