where the writers are
Yipee! I've got a publishing contract!

I'm excited to say the least. 

eXcessica publishing has picked up Survival Games for publication.  The release date is set for May 17, 2010.  Both print and ebook will be offered through Amazon.com and the ebook version will also be avaialbe online at eXcessica as well as other venues such as  Fictionwise, Barnes & Noble, All Romance Ebooks, BookStrand, Smashwords, A1 Adult Ebooks, Fiction4All, My Bookstore and More, and Mobi/Amazon/Kindle. 

Now that I've done the celebratory dance, filled out forms, signed a contract and given blurbs and excerpts to the publisher, I'm wondering what's next?  What kind of ride am I in for?  Excitement, hesitation, fear are all now working my bones now that this is real. 

So, I've got to start planning like a fiend now that another step in the great publishing quest has been attained.   I'm talking an all out sales blitz! 

WooHoo - you up for the ride?

Hey J.E. good news

Hey J.E. good news considering you said in your About Me page,"I am a writer. My goal is to attain the title of author and hopefully that will become a reality in the near future." I guess its the self fulfilling prophecy.
Congratulations ___Michael

Thank you

Thank you!

Ryoma, as far as marketing - I'll be looking at blogging tours, online release party, blurbs from other authors, and leveraging the networking sites such as MySpace, facebook and twitter and of course I can't forget Red Room!

The book will be avaialble on-line so that's where my focus will be.

Have a great day all!
