So…this week has been quite eventful.
I spent the weekend literally poring over the interior of the book. Going through each and every chapter, I gotta say, there were some tears shed. I am surprised to how much things have changed from since then to now.
Being limited to 50 free corrections for the interior is quite tough. So far, I’ve written down the changes, though I’ve not kept count! 😛 The cover will be a lot easier to work with as I get complete freedom to do as many changes as I would like.
Put this in between all the other things I’m dealing with in my life: work, moving out to a new place, having fun, and just enjoying every day, while anticipating some exciting things for the near future (engaging with my family, reuniting with someone special 🙂 , taking a break from work, planning for higher studies!!! ) etc. I should be done the changes by this weekend, and submit it next week 🙂
Apparently, it will take a week or two (depending on the volume of changes, though mine aren’t extensive) for the book to be in print and be set in the iUniverse catalog. But my submission will coincide with my full entry into the marketing process. Can’t wait to start, god its going to be fun: calling bookstores, bugging as many people as possible to read my book, getting in touch with the libraries, press-releases, and maybe some book signings to set up! (who knows!!)
My mind is on a whirl right now! Like this guy below!
