Not Twiddling My Thumbs - REALLY!

I have been on edge for the last two weeks. I want to officially launch my book, but there was a holdup with my paperback. Unfortunately something happened that was beyond my control and everything had to be resubmitted. I don't want to go into it or complain about any particular company, mainly because they were so good about correcting the problem. Unfortunately these things take time and here I am, eagerly awaiting my book launch.

If the e-books are out, why am I waiting? I want everyone to be able to participate in my contest, and that includes people who want a paperback. There is an element of my contest that involves people who purchase a copy of my book and it's not fair to leave anyone out.

The great news is that since I unofficially launched my e-books last week, I've sold 44 copies (28 e-books and 14 paperback pre-orders). I think that's fantastic considering I've done almost nothing in the way of promotion. Heck, I'm thrilled that someone other than my mom bought a copy!

My hope is that the contest will launch Friday, but depending on the paperback's time frame, it might be Monday. Thanks so much for sticking with me - I really appreciate it!!!! I PROMISE you, this contest will be ah-may-zing!

Hint - anyone who is a fan of my Facebook page before the contest starts has a slight advantage. I want to reward everyone who's been sticking with me since the beginning. If you haven't followed me on FB yet, you can do so with the widget to the right.
