Down to the wire and stress!
Getting down to the wire. The book is nearly set to go, though I keep being paranoid and rereading and making small tweaks. So much is riding on the first book being released that it's rare it's not in the back of my mind. I think tonight I'm going to get a fresh pair of eyes on it before I make any more minor changes. Then I can start work on the formatting.
On a less high note, there are some issues with the cover designer and their computer. I'm hoping this won't affect the release date, but I'm thinking it may push it back by a week or two. My apologies to everyone, we're trying to sort it out as quickly as we can! :)
