…and will hopefully be out by Christmas.
I’m getting excited now!
I say my first book because, when I initially spoke to Stephanie Hale, of Oxford Literary Consultancy in June, she said that the 216,000 words I have written were too many for one book – so Stephanie suggested I publish two books!
I would like to thank Francis Dolley and Glenn Armstrong for recommending Stephanie to me.
Also I would like to thank Callum Stannard – one of the three other editors I’ve spoken recently. Callum would also have done a great job of editing my book(s) but he didn’t have the time to do it.
Hopefully Stairs For Breakfast (Part One) will be published in time for Christmas.
So far, I have 79 pre-orders – plus 50 copies which Glenn Armstrong has ordered. (This time last week I had collected 52 orders)
It means I now have enough money to cover the editing costs – but still need another 138 pre-orders to cover the other costs (self-publishing printing, book cover design, postage & packing for the pre-ordered books).
Without people pre-ordering my book, I would not be where I am today. As a thank you to all of you who have already pre-ordered Stairs For Breakfast, I have created this THANK YOU page on my website. Please check out the list of names on it (which I’m updating regularly).
As mentioned, I’m currently 138 pre-orders short of the required target of 267, to get the book published and posted.
I am very proud of Stairs For Breakfast – and have no doubt that people will be helped and inspired by my true life story.
If you haven’t already pre-ordered my book, please could you pre-order it TODAY – so I can have the book out by Christmas.
Would you mind circulating my website http://stairsforbreakfast.com with all of the people you know?
Glenn Armstrong has taught, helped and inspired me so much over the last four years. I value Glenn’s help and feel humble to be associated with people who really want me to succeed
Up until about two weeks ago I was planning to have both parts of Stairs For Breakfast published at the same time. However Glenn advised me to get Part One published first, as it will generate an income and help to pay for the publication of Part Two in 2015.
Also there are now a lot of unanswered questions at the end of Part One – it’s a bit of a cliff-hanger!
Thank you for pre-ordering my book – and making Stairs For Breakfast a great success.
