Hey Guys!

Update #23 · Apr 22, 2013 · 13 comments

We hear you. Sorry the book is taking too long, but as was said earlier, the book has doubled in size from 128 to well over 260 pages. We thought it was smaller than it was.

So, here's the status. We're madly working on it. The writing and art is done. Shane is laying out of the book and it through Chapter 7. We're trying to get it to press ASAP. 

Here's a link to the first 124 pages laid out:

Keep in mind, this is only 8 pages short of what the entire book was supposed to be! It's just grown and grown. So, thanks for your patience and please hang in there. More soon!

Hey gang, Shane Ivey here of Arc Dream Publishing. I'm laying out The Sense of the Sleight-of-Hand Man. I got to page 88 last week, which takes it through Chapter Six, and I expect to have the next couple of chapters done this week. It is moving along at the uneven and strange pace of dreams, at first swift as a deep black river and then slowly, still slowly, lingering on alien skies the color of poisoned wine and unwholesomest blood. Look for another preview in the next few days.

Enjoy! We're working feverishly on getting the rest down, but we're super happy with the look and feel. Thanks for all the (positive) feedback. More to come soon.

The Book Has Officially Entered Layout!

Hey guys, just a note to say — despite delays — the book has officially crossed the threshold to page design and layout. Woohoo.

The principle writing has been completed, and the feedback from the rough manuscript has been FANTASTICALLY HELPFUL. Thanks everyone. 

Here's the link to the rough manuscript for your reading pleasure:

Look for future updates soon!
