At last, I signed the approval papers for the Cover and Interior for TYRONE THE TERRIBLE, The Chameleon Who Decided He Was an Alligator. And the manuscript is now off to the printers. In a short time (I hope) my book will be ready for the world to see. And I can actually hold it in my hands. Proud parent.
It has been a fun and exciting project. Special thanks to the people at Elk Lake Publishing, Inc. Editor Derinda and publisher Deb couldn’t have been more helpful to an absolute new-comer like me.
As a matter of fact, I plan to go through this whole process again in the fall. I have been informed that my Picture Book, I HATE OATMEAL, has been accepted for publication by Elk Lake in November.
This could become a habit. Anyway, TYRONE will be out in paperback and ebook on Amazon. I’ll let you know when. Then you have to do your part and buy one and leave a wonderful review.
One last thing. I have a short story OPERATION S.O.S. (SAVE OUR STABLE) I want to share with you. It is free when you click the link below. My summer project is to lengthen it into a full story, complete with color illustrations. But more about this project later. Just enjoy the story and look forward to the expanded book.
