Awesomeness. I started the cover art after I got up from sleeping and managed to finish it. I'm uploading it to deviantart right now .. yay! I had a few error problems with the browser to website process, but it seems fixed now (new browser plus much smaller image) so here tis
http://shakkathi.deviantart.com/art/CA-KingsQueens-AllTheirThings-110977417
Just need the edited manuscript .. and the ISBN .. then done until after the review of author's copy .. I got close, but I don't think I'll ever make it to write, illustrate, and publish a book in one month

Feh, just after I lay down for bed I got hit hard with the inspiration waves .. I had to go to bed though Dx .. so I only have remnants of it dancing around in my skull ..
But it should be interesting =o very on the horror side .. xD I'm really going to try ..

I keep getting called in to work other people's shifts because they're sick D=
So, I work tonight .. and then I'll work mon 5-8, tues 3-8, thurs 5-8
Feh, doesn't let me get much done
But, with Kings, Queens, and All Their Things .. I'm only waiting for the edited text to be returned so I can publish it .. And also, I made a 4 book collection of the first in the Drag Shergi Mysteries .. "These Aren't Angels" .. I've done everything except get the ISBN (dunno if I will) and get the author copy to ponder about publishing ..

So in the time when I can't find enough inspiration/strength to write, I've been putting together the 'collections'
I found names for the three mini-collections of the Drag Shergi Mysteries =D
The first is These Aren't Angels .. which holds stories 1-4 and is exactly 250 pages
I'm going to simply call the twin's series by their name Rae and Danny .. and they are both able to fall at 440 pages exactly, but if I format a bit more and put in more pictures I can push to 450 pages each .. which I'm going to try to do probably
The collections are something I've wanted to do for some time .. but with Drag's stories they're exited correctly so I can go ahead and publish them now, but with the Rae and Danny stories the first two of each aren't edited .. I didn't have anyone to do it back then >.>;;; but now I do ... though it will take some time to get done -waiting-

I see you are published by Lulu. That's a self-publishing site isn't it? I was thinking about submitting my work there, is it simple?

Xlibris and Lulu are both self publishing..
In terms of price Xlibris charges and arm and leg .. Lulu, more like a finger lol
But yes, Lulu has the ability for many different forms of publishing .. They've set it up to be really simple, which is a very good thing. The only thing you have to worry about perhaps is getting the formatting right, since you are in complete and total control (I had such a hard time my first couple books, but I've figured it out somewhat heh) and the best thing about Lulu is you only pay for the printing cost of the book (plus shipping)

Yeah, I have definitely been looking at Lulu just I don't want someone to spend £9.whatever on a book. I wouldn't even pay that for an author I don't know.
I'm not in it for money, I just want to get something out there to show people what I can do. I don't want people spending loooads on something I wrote xD
