Happy Memorial Day Everyone!
The process of writing the first draft of Monarch could not have gone much smoother than it did. (Take a look back at a previous post for details.) I finished more than a week ahead of my self-imposed deadline in November.
This year has not been quite as effortless as last year. My hope was to roll out the first stage in July. Things were going along just fine until late January, when father time caught up with me. He's faster than you'd think. Anyway, it happens to all of us and I'm now back on track.
That brings me to my reason for writing this post. Even though I will not be able to deliver my first e-book to you all in July, I can still begin selling them via pre-sale. Although, I cannot do so through Amazon - you must be a bestselling author to pre-sale through them. This ultimately will be better for the reader, because it allows me to add perks to the pre-sale that I could not through Amazon, and I want everyone to feel as if they are apart of something special. These perks will be "collectors items" that will not be available once the roll out begins in just a few short months. (Details on perks coming soon.)
Even though the rewrite of Stage One will be completed before July, it would not be wise of me to publish it before addressing the other stages first. That will take just a little more time.
Hopefully there are those of you who are interested in not only buying your copy or copies before their release, but are also interested in the collectible items available only through the pre-sale. My goal is to make the experience of releasing my first e-book as positive and beneficial to my readers as possible.
Thank you for reading.
