Oh, I’ve been getting close to that. This time you know it has to be good if I get to choose where the illustrations are going!
There aren’t going to be that many, but it’s still exciting. I read through the final draft last night, and I’m still considering the illustration options.
I’ve also been working on my press kit. It’s a good thing for any author who promotes a book. There are even services out there to make them for you – but they’re quite expensive. Definitely worth doing yourself. Also, it gives an author the knowledge base to promote herself and a focusing point for bringing it up.
At least, I think so. Either way, progress feels good.

I can’t wait to get to that point in my own writing. Have a great weekend!
BTW is considering the illustrations like picking out the drapes or the carpets because I am no good with that.
Illustrations?! 🙂 How cool that you’re getting soooo close! Do you have a release date yet? Can I preorder my copy? 😀
Oooh illustrations! Cannot wait to add to my collection of signed memorabilia by this fabulous author. 😀
Nice! You’re definitely coming down to the end.
Making my press kit was probably one of the most useful things I could have done with my time. I learned so much about self promotion from that process, and the end product was really cool.
That sounds fun and exciting. Can’t wait to see the finished product. 😀
