The Axtara Print Proof is on its way! · 1:06am Jan 21st, 2021
Readers! I have fantastic news! The print proof for Axtara – Banking and Finance will be in my hands this weekend!
Yup! It’s ordered and on its way! Which means that I can finally give you guys some solid details! Like, for example, when it might go up for sale.
Yes, I said “might” there. There’s a catch. I’m getting the proof. IE the copy that I have to go through checking for any print mistakes or problems. So hey, I get to read through my book again! This time on paper! If there are errors, like the cover not being trimmer properly or the text being cut off, missing pages, etc etc etc, then I need to track down the source of the issue and fix it, which will mean another proof order.
However, if all is well and I’ve done my job properly, all I have to do is click a button … and Axtara as a trade paperback will be live!
Yes, there will be a post announcing such the moment it happens. But yes, this means that come Monday (or Tuesday), you’ll very likely be able to order a your own hard copy paperback of Axtara – Banking and Finance! As will bookstores, so it’ll be interesting to me to see what happens there. This means that if you don’t have access to Amazon, or want to support your local indie bookstore, they’ll be able to order a copy of Axtara for you and yes, I will still get paid.
For that matter, you’ll also be able to ask your local library to pick up copies of Axtara as well, and they’ll be able to do the same. So if you have no money but a library card, ask your library to grab a copy once it goes live! They’ll be able to!
Now, that’s pretty much it! Oh! Pricing. Yeah, so the final price is $11.99. The final page tally? A little over 300. The cover? Glossy (I can’t wait to see it). I’ll post some pictures for you all to see when it arrives.
So get hyped! We’re only a few days away!
I have long dreamed of the day I'll get to hold a copy of my own writing in my hands. Excited to see how the book looks!
Fantastic news!
It'd be cool to just run into your own book at a library. I wonder if authors ever get tired of it...
May end up picking up a paperback copy myself.
As Bugsydor said that is FANTASTIC news!
Very much looking forward to seeing it in a bound format as well. I’ll definitely be ordering at least 2 copies when it goes live. One for me, and one to shove at a friend I know will also like it but doesn’t have a good e-reader at the moment.
