Anywhere from three to fifteen days, which is an annoyingly vague spread when trying to set up a coordinated effort. Each of these venues takes a different, and mystifyingly unknown, amount of time to process the book and make it available to readers. Instead we try to queue things up as best we can so that the book comes out roughly on schedule in all its forms, Amazon, Bookstores and Kindle-sorry still no audio or eBook with this release.

Perhaps there would be a Montemorcy Vineyard wine tasting, huge inflatable Gilarabrywns and By Mar! t-shirts. Although wouldn’t that be cool? All these people dressed up as Royce and Hadrian giving nasty looks to those dressed up as Saldur and Guy. Not having that kind of expected interest, neither I nor my publisher, have the power to mount an orchestrated release. All of you are holding a hand to your mouth in shock right now. Nyphron Rising is not having a midnight release. You can countdown all you want, but there’s too many things outside of your control to be accurate. Launching a book is not like launching a rocket. Keep in mind my experience is not necessarily the norm. I am guessing it will only be a week delay at the most, but right now, all of us-me included-are waiting to see when the Green Book will be out.Īs we get down to it, less than ten days, I thought I’d say a little something about the launch of a novel. If the pages come in order with this new edition, then I should be able to push it live the next day. The good news is everything else was fine. No idea if it will make it in time for the Oct 1 release, so at this moment I can’t tell you exactly when the book will be available. Now, with just four days left, I am waiting on the next proof to arrive. So I expect I will be receiving a hundred expensive doorstops soon. Not sure if I canceled the order in time. On top of this, I already ordered several cases. It has to be reissued and that means delays. I continued to read and the same shuffling of pages occurred in four separate points after that. New readers will be flying along oblivious to the fact that they are being derailed. I can recognize they are mixed because I can recite the novel by now and know what comes next. I can’t let the book go out with pages out of order. For no reason I can figure, the pages were shuffled.Ĭrap. There was nothing wrong with page 187, except that it wasn’t 187 it was supposed to be 188. A sentence that sounds suddenly awkward that didn’t before, but nothing awful. There is always the word or two I would change. This final reading was just for peace of mind. This is the fourth time in three weeks I’ve read it so I can’t really see it anymore, it’s like going snow-blind. Last week I received the printer’s proof of Nyphron Rising.
