Brian Whiting Its been with the producer, the agreement is set with the end of the month, but I have yet to hear any segments, so I am wondering myself a little bit.
Brian Whiting I believe I fixed the issue !!! It was not my intention for that to have occurred Ill never use kindle create again!!
Brian Whiting Remember explorers, it's an old movie. I always dreamed of doing something like that on my own. So this series it's just my fantasy on paper.
Brian Whiting I am re reading the final post edited draft from editor now, My sights on first week of August.
Brian Whiting Yes I did, Those listed on the front cover the "Special thank yous" were my beta readers. Plus I had the editor go over it. I take full responsibility in that error. Its all mine, and my lack of comprehension of critical English skills. lol I am directing my attention to that issue on book two, which I will have finished mid day tomorrow. I pull my beta readers from a website called upwork, I pay them. Book 2 beta readers just handed me their reports about a week ago. Ive been making re writes and changes since. I'll be sending it to my editor hopefully tomorrow evening for the final look over. Then its off to book design and publishing.

Thanks for the heads up, you won't see that issue in the next book.

I am new to writing and i work a complex full time job, I dream of when I can quit work and take come creative writing classes and sharpen up my story writing. My beta readers say book two is a huge improvement, but that might just be the money talking. Its hard to know if your own writing is any good. I guess we will see soon. Thanks for caring by the way, and reading my book!
Brian Whiting Listening to other people tell you how much they enjoyed your book and what they imagine in the sequel. Knowing you have sparked their imagination is hugely rewarding.
Brian Whiting I must have started twenty different versions of book one. My advice is to just pick one and finish it to the end. The editing process will completely shift things around anyway. Don't get hung up on the old 'don't change anything' mind set. Pick a good editor and see where it takes you. Just finish the rough draft, and absolutely do not write with the intention of making money. You'll get no joy out of that and those negative reviews will rip your heart out. Learn from what people are saying and stick close to your fans.
Brian Whiting Easy... second book in the series. "Neighbors"
