Blitzkreig Day 6 and Prepping "The Girl With No Name" for epub
The Seventh Night ARC Blitzkreig is posted up to Chapter 16, with 17 and 18 coming later today. Before the day is out, the girl will no longer have no name. Aside from posting chapters and editing Seventh Night, I've been prepping The Girl With No Name for its epub release. The KDP select period has ended, so I'll soon be returning some
I've gotten some lovely and helpful feedback on the preview chapters. Vladvonbounce pointed out that horses don't pant, which helped me avoid one of those annoying little inaccuracies that can pull readers out of a story. Looking over the chapter before posting has helped me spot some overused phrases and replace them with something a little better.
I think I've finished the file formatting for The Girl With No Name. I'm still in the process of vectoring the logos. The book will keep the same basic cover art, but it needs to be cleaned up a bit. I've told a few people, but this can count as an official announcement. How soon The Girl With No Name goes to print depends mainly on how long the third and fourth stories in the Before the Fairytale set end up. Horse Feathers is pushing into short novel length, but the third and fourth stories may be short story rather than novella length. The original plan had been to release the four in one volume, but the first two turned out much longer than I anticipated.
However, if I release The Girl With No Name and Horse Feather separately, I would feel obliged to make the third story at least novella length, and I'm not sure it has enough content for that. We'll see. I should have a better idea early in 2014 when I start the third serial.
