Published

Boy has it been awhile....Writing a book is the easy part, the hard part editing and formatting to be published. I was lucky enough to have a great friend who was willing to help edit for me and give me some feed back on the book I wrote. I started the long journey on publishing on kindle a few weeks ago. I got everything ready(I thought) just waiting to get the final edits back from my friend and do my read over.

That was last week. I out the finishing touches(or what I thought was the finishing touches) on it last Wednesday or so. Fast forward to this weekend when I prepare to oublish to kindle. I used a website to prepare it for book print(one that is printed when ordered) that was also suppose to format to kindle. Everything I wrote was formatted for a print book.

I follow the websites directions and download then upload to kindle the edition that was supposed to be formatted for kindle. SURPRISE-it wasn't. So I spent the weekend and Monday adding page breaks, taking away things that aren't needed in e books, and polishing all of the chapters to adhere to kindle formatting. Come Monday I pressed the publish button. Silly me, I forgot to add myself as the author so it was sent back to me. Today I fixed that correction and resubmitted.

Before I feel asleep I decided to check, just to see if it might be up, totally didn't think it would be since I had just submitted it less than twelve hours ago. Lo-and-behold it is kind of up. LOL. What I mean by that is if you search my name on kindle my book pops up. It is not available to be bought yet, but just doing that serach and seeing MY name and MY book come up is such a feeling that I am not sure I have the adequete words to describe it. Needless to say I am unbelievably excited and undeniably unable to go to sleep.

So if anyone out there whats to see my book and read the description, but be unable to buy it yet here is the link!!!!
