I think it is safe to say that by the end of July, folks will have physical copies of their books.
I’m currently doing the final, last second, nose-to-the-grindstone, word-by-word readthrough of the book, picking out those nasty “printer gnomes”who avoid all other attempts to eliminate them from the book. I took a month off from reading it, letting my eyes get new to the text, and I’m eliminating all the stuff we didn’t find in previous editing sweeps.
Nasty, little annoying things.
Daniel just posted the Limited Edition cover on his LiveJournal (you can see it on mine as well through the above link) and he’s working on the backs of the covers now. Daniel should be done by Friday. That means the book goes to the printer either Friday or the following Monday.
As soon as I send the final .pdf to the printer, I’ll be sending it to all the pre-orders as well. This means pre-orders will most likely have the .pdf in their inboxes by this weekend.
The printer has told me they can print the LE and SE in two weeks after it’s been received. After that, it comes to me. I sign the books and send them off to the Indie Press Revolution guys in Reno, NV.
After the pre-orders are sent, the price of the book goes up to $45. It is currently still at $40.
That’s the full update.
