Well, the wait is finally over and it was worth my patience. All the pieces have finally come together to publish my new middle grade novel. I am going to publish the e-book version of The Big Stinky City tonight, so it will probably be "live" in the middle of the night. The final piece, the cover art, came in this morning and I couldn't be more pleased. Once again, Josh Merriam, over at Merriam Creative did a fantastic job. I also want to thank my aunt and wonderful editor, Monique Krulick. I have never felt better about a finished product than I do about this one. I also want to thank everybody else who helped me in numerous ways including my wife for giving me the time needed, my two children for understanding my writing nights, and my parents for their never-ending support. As they say, "It takes a village."
