I have to turn that around and hand it over to the narrators by the 20th of this month because I'm going for a simultaneous release on this one. The fantasy book is being reviewed by the beta readers AND in the hands of the editor. It's fantastic, and she's an absolute joy to work with. Only thing I'm NOT worried about with that book is the cover, which was done by Naira Nervous as hell about that because it could bomb completely (I'm not telling the bulk of my audience about it so as not to ruin the also-bought listings) it could do mediocre, in which case I have to do a lot of math to figure out if it's worth continuing or if I should leave my focus on Cebelius books, or it could COMPLETELY explode, in which case I'll have fuck-you money but will still have to balance my work there and as Cebelius, because I will neither forget who gave me the life I have, nor lose my love of monster girls. Had a great time AND managed to finish what will be my very first mainline sword and sorcery book, which I am putting out under a pen name. I think maybe it's just because they like the way I mix drinks.

Just got back from Kentucky wherein I was hosted by the ever gracious folks over at Shadow Alley Press, who - for reasons of their own - always invite me to their yearly do.
