Land of No Angels and Other Stuff
So, I've been fairly busy trying to get everything ready for Land of No Angels. I'm expecting to publish the ebook version in the first week of June and the print version will likely come a week or two later, depending on how fast CreateSpace is. It's very exciting! The cover is almost finished. I mean, it's so close and it's wonderful. The suspense of waiting for the final files so that I may turn around and show it off to the world is just killing me!
I still have a lot of work to do before everything is ready for publishing, but it should be great. Please excuse my list below, though. Having so much to do makes me need to write it out and if I do so here rather than somewhere else, it helps me hold myself accountable. So, onto the list of stuff left to do for LoNA's debut.

Wow, that list ended up being a lot longer than expected. I've also been working to fix my website up a bit. It's not fancy or anything, but I wanted to have it presentable for when the book comes out. I've added some academic writing and information about my upcoming books. My only issue now is that I want to change the url to nrwick.com rather than scribblemethis.nrwick.com but I'm still waiting for Smashwords to respond to me about changing my email. It's extremely irritating that I've been trying to get information on how to change my email, but have yet to receive a response. Ugh.
Okay, I think I'm done for now. I've got to get my next short story finished this weekend and I've been struggling with getting writing done. So, off I go!
