Well, I Pressed “Send”
Yes, that’s right, you did read the title correctly. As of yesterday, I pressed “send” on The Wall of Night #4 manuscript, working title The Chaos Gate. So it is now with the series’ publisher, Harper Voyager.
Yes, I did type “the end.” 🙂
On Monday, I’ll run through the stages from this point, so you know what’s involved in getting to a publication date, which I imagine will be in all your minds.
For the moment, though, I am pressing pause to celebrate, because it’s been a very long road to this day, both for me and thee. 😀
Hats in the air, Hogwarts style.
And you’ve all been amazingly supportive and patient, which I have really appreciated, so thank you for that. Gassho.
It may be worth checking in again on Monday, so you do know what to expect from this point — but for now, I’d just like to celebrate this milestone with you, because it really does feel “huge.”
Hmm, how many times have I said, “Not this day”, in the best LoTR fashion? Well today (or yesterday, really) it is finally, “this day.”
