Apology

I must apologize for not having posted in quite some time, but I have learned a new level of stress this past week.

Never before have I encountered such incredible nit wits as the US Publishers my Canadian Publisher is using for greater distribution. They fully regret ever having gone with them and it has driven me to drink just to calm down a few nights last week. That's something I have NEVER done before and never need to do again!

Now, cross fingers, the US Publishers will be going to print and I'll get my galley next week. They have until June 10th to do their work or the contract will be broken. My publishers are PISSED.

On a good note...Dark Dragon Publications contacted the Canadian Printers and were given the thumbs up. Files were sent and now there is a bet going on within Dark Dragon as to who is going to get us our books first. LOL I'm betting on the Canadian printers....they have the same deadline.

I'm not going to go into all the gory details yet. I haven't been given permission to do so, but if the contract is broken then I'll spill.

As it stands right now my Marketing Goddess has me as a guest for the
Canadian Fan Expo I'm really excited about that.

More good news...I have
NOW Magazine, Eye Weekly, Snap!, Metro News, and Toronto.com listing my Book Launch Party and sending reporters.:)

Arrangements are currently in the works for me to have a designer authors wardrobe made by
Starkers Corsetry. I'm really excited about that because her clothing is SPECTACULAR!

My Marketing Goddess IS a Goddess.:)

For those of you interested in purchasing a personalized, signed and numbered edition of my book, please continue to be patient. My website is going through a serious overhaul to satisfy the needs of a shopping cart. My Publicity Goddess is also a Web Design Goddess. She's currently at work on it and will get it up asap.:)

There will be more news coming. I'll try and post more often.
