May 2023 Update

Book 2 of the Charley Moore series is in the editing process. My editor (my sister) is nearly complete and I am adding in her comments as she texts to me. Book 3 is on hold while I search for a literary agent to get the first book republished and the second and the finale published. Third book is coming along slowly now that all time is put into editing and looking for a publisher. Book 2 is called Crossover Redux and Book three is named Crossover Coda.

Oct 21 2019 update

The final Crossover proofs for cover and interior went back to Lulu last week, October 16. Their marketing is targeting social media after book release for a million hits of the targeted audience. I expect to book to be published around Halloween. In the meantime, I have continued writing in my spare time on book 2. Everytime I read it I find more things I wish I upgraded the writing. But I’ll never be able to afford the types of content editors that the big boys and girls have.

Nov 3 Busy week

The last week of October turned out to be a very busy week with my other obligations. I have received and approved the proofs of the hardback and paperback copies of Crossover. Facebook campaign may start near end of month of November. Bloomington’s Monroe County Library is hopefully ordering a copy of the book soon. I figured out how to make the book available for sale on Lulu.com.

Final Publishing Endgame

Been a busy summer with Crossover. Received a sample edit and I went with Lulu’s editing services. I received it back in the middle of September. As of 9/25/2019 they have the final manuscript, an author photo, dedication, synopsis, front and rear cover selections and a map of the venerable island. They will give me a copy layout to approve by October 25th for a Black Friday Publish date. But in the downtime, I have written over 200 pages of Crossover 2, featuring your favorite characters that survived book 1. There will be a third book.
