The proof copy of The Fall finally arrived yesterday after what seemed an interminable wait. It was worth it, though. The quality of the printing was excellent, and my new cover looks awesome. I couldn't stop grinning! I'm grinning now. Not that I don't expect to sell many paperback copies but it sort of feels like having a paper copy of your book is validation as a writer.
Exciting - and I know the feeling. I remember getting my 4 free copies in the mail on my first book. I put one on my shelf right away to look at. And that's a very cool cover. Congratulations.
