Anyway, I guess Mike forgetting to bring the finished map was a good thing since we didn't go ahead with the formatting. Although now I am stressed out about getting it all done. I guess it will happen when it's supposed to happen, which will be later this week since we also received more than a foot of snow and more on the way the next few days.
I know we are so close but it brings me to one question - does it ever end?

At least I am trying to look at the bright side. And I did manage to get our taxes done on time. I guess we will have to be patient a little longer, but it will all work out and Fable will be launched in the next couple of weeks.
In the mean time I am working on a blog tour. I have 5 writers who are interested, and I hope to get more soon. I have never done a blog tour. This is all new to me. If you know how one is done, please feel free to enlighten me. I'm sure I will figure it all out though.
So all I ask, is be patient with me. The book will launch and the blog tour will happen. This too shall pass!
With the blog tour I plan to have giveaway's and maybe some contests. If you have any ideas for those, let me know, too.
Until Friday, I hope all of you have a great week. Thanks for letting me vent and I hope to have better news with the next post.
Love, Lisa
When I published my 4 novellas last year (well, one was technically novel-length, though very short novel length), I didn't publish a single one on time. I had set up a schedule on my website and missed every single date. One was due to burnout. I was too tired to even finish writing the book, so that got pushed back a month. The other got pushed back a month because the book took me longer to write than I was expecting. Another even got pushed back to this year, despite me trying to finish it during NaNoWriMo (I got 3 chapters written the whole month of November). That got published in February.
ReplyDeleteSo, of course, my New Year's Resolution is to not set any release dates until the only thing I have to do is upload the thing. Once it's complete, done post-production, in the can, whatever analogy you want to use, then I'll announce a release date.
Did I keep it? Nope. The new covers for my books on deviantArt have a release date or two. I'm terrible at keeping resolutions ...
Yes, that frikin' Murphy always strikes! I'm sure it rarely pans out the way we want it to. I am also sure that it will all get done! Thanks for all your help, Ryan!
ReplyDeleteNo problemo.
ReplyDeleteRyan - Thanks for the words of encouragement. It helps knowing that we're not alone in setbacks and that delays are more common than not!
ReplyDeleteHey, anything I can do to help. I suppose that's what I'm here for. Who knows?
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm just crazy.
