kinks kinks kinks

Just when I thought everything was going smoothly, there came a few surprises.

First, my publisher told me that the printer screwed up the galleys. They used the wrong font. So now they have to redo the galleys, and it will take an additional few weeks.

That, in turn, has pushed the release date further. So, sorry, no Thanksgiving party for me. We're now looking at January, to give the book enough pre-release time to get reviews, publicity, etc.

I am okay with all that, knowing how the publishing business works. Just that the waiting is so painful sometimes. Just when I thought the wait was almost over...

Oh well, such is life. And thank goodness, the book is still getting published. Must be happy about that!
