We're getting there

I blog this as my husband, Trevor, puts the finishing touches on my book before we upload it to Amazon.com. It'll take about 3 days to then appear in the listings, at which time I'll post links, but I'm very happy with how it's shaping up. Of course I feel neurotic about the actual book itself - I had a ton of fun writing it, but now that it's about to go live I feel the usual terror about other people's opinions.

But the look and feel of the thing is, I think, very nice. I've done pretty chapter headings and scene breaks that are in color, so will look striking on a Kindle Fire or other color reader. This isn't all that hard to do, so I'm a little surprised it isn't more common.

Here's the cover, designed by the stunningly talented Jenn Reese of Tiger Bright Studios


I'll release more info over the next few days.

Oh, and I've just turned 36. It's been a good life so far, and I look forward to whatever comes next!
