Copy Edit Complete

Today I have approved and finalized the copy edits on my collection of stories, Traveling Sitting Still. I was very impressed by the quality of the editing, and David Bernardi at iUniverse has my thanks for a job well done. It is amazing that a manuscript I have sweated and bled over for the last three years can still contain so many tiny blemishes. I am confident that, now, the book will be blemish free.

It was well worth the additional four weeks production time.

Now we enter final stages of publication and I hope to have my book in hand by the end of the month. With luck, I'll have it by the time I celebrate my thirtieth birthday.

The collection is also under review by iUniverse's editorial board for possible inclusion in the Editor's Choice circle of books—a prestigious distinction.
