Book Three is done...

So Book III is done. I’ve been working on Book IV on a regular basis, but I need to take a little brake from publishing chapters to do some house cleaning.

First up is getting the last of the 10s up for Book III. I hope to take care of that this week. Second is breaking Book I into sets of five chapters. Then I have to start putting together Book III for publishing through Lulu. I’ll also need to remove all of the Book III single chapter posts in there somewhere.

Then I want to start working on some simple advertising to be put throughout the site to spur people to buy the ebook (or paperback) versions of Book II and soon Book III. I plan on testing some simple online advertising to see if I can both drive traffic to the site and, ultimately, sales of the books. Although this is just a hobby, it would be kind of cool if there were a self-funding nature to it. I figure all of this will take a couple of months to dig through.

In the end, we’ll have to see how far I get on this stuff, but those are the goals for now. If I didn’t have a job and family, I’d knock all of that out in a day or two (OK, maybe a week), but life gets in the way of so many things.

Also, I want to note that, going forward, I will only be posting chapters one time a week. I just can’t keep up with the two times a week schedule on the writing side of things. The most likely day will be Wednesday, but Monday might work, too. If anyone has an opinion on the topic, please feel free to head to my message board or respond to this post.

But don’t fear! I plan on coming back soon with more chapters…

As always, thanks for reading,
Gregg
