Copyright registration is complete. Just got the letter in the mail regarding the work being officially filed with the Copyright Office.
I have been hard at work with the final draft. Trying to fix, edit, reedit, determine word choice, edit again, and finally read the final draft to make it to publication date. It’s almost done! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!
The book will go on sale, July 31st exclusively through Amazon. Amazon now has hardcovers, and they are much cheaper to produce than going through Ingramspark. Ingramspark has good quality, but they’re expensive and I don’t make a dime using them to distribute hardcover books. Through Amazon, I’ll get some money back:)
The real profit comes from ebook sales and Kindle Direct. For each ebook sold, I get about 70 percent of the purchase price. With softcover and hardcover, I get the same, but after printing costs are factored in. I try to keep the price competitive, but the margins are not profitable unless I raise prices, which I refuse to do. I am ultimately not in this for a profit. If you know me, you know why:)
Please pre-order the Ebook. It’s currently available for pre-order now!
