I’ve had several ask me how book #1 is coming along. As way of an update:

Yesterday I sent my revised ePROOFS back to the publisher.
Final approval should be in a few weeks.
Printer set-up (+ a final quality check) takes 3 weeks.
Printer copy 3 weeks from then.
Author copies 2 weeks later
(so. . .ten weeks or so, should have it “Till Death Do Us Part” published.
Retail distribution, printed and digital formats, available, then, 4-6 weeks later.
