The epublishing world has changed so darn much since my first book with Loose-Id came out...and I am not sure I like it. I was blissfully ignorant of all reactions to ARTS except from those who took the time to email me directly. I think that is a very good thing.

So, I've decided to adopt that way of being aka staying blissfully ignorant for this book too which is, whee! out TODAY!!! http://www.loose-id.com/Long-Way-Home.aspx

I don't want to know a thing about it. I just want to stay happily ignorant about how it is doing out there - it isn't like I have any control over it, right? Right!!! Instead, I will concentrate my soon-to-be-massive free time on rewriting my current story, and planning what to write next.

So, don't tell me if you see anything out there -- I seriously don't want to think about it. I have certain feelings about this story and my writing skills at the time, not to be hard on myself but... Yeah. In any case, Onward!!!! Time for class, then after that I am going home, and curling up and having a good hard sleep. I finished my mid-term paper - turning it in tonight yay - and found out yesterday that I will not be getting a permanent job at my law firm. I am terribly sad, as are two of my attorneys, who are being divided up and handed over to two others, neither of which is at all happy about it either. *throws up hands*

So, back to looking for me, but at least I am leaving that law firm with a lot more experience, current knowledge where I was previously outdated (been 16 years after all), and with some fabulous references from Ed, Davis, the personnel director, and others there. It is awesome everyone is so sad I am leaving, but I still have to say goodbye on Friday.

Sigh.

Sometimes, being awesome and working hard just isn't enough, which sucks bananas.

Okay, time for class!
Finally got the go-ahead to share the new cover. Okay, okay, I only saw it for the first time yesterday, but whatever. Here it is!

oh wow )

Though tonight I am more excited than anything, I know the closer the date comes to release, October 18th, the more nervous I will be. The first book (this is a spin-off) was enormously popular, is all over GoodReads Best-Of lists and that is INTIMIDATING. Argh Argh Argh.

So, I have sworn to Nick that I will not read reviews, will not go to GoodReads, will cover my eyes and say LA!LA!LA! if anyone is talking about it. I mean, ARTS was my book o'my heart, and for a long time I stopped writing because I knew I could never top it--great way to handle it, right? I finally got over that, thank goodness. And I do love Long Way Home, I really do. I hope readers will like it, especially those who wanted Lee's story.

Anyway, I'll post the links to it soon as they are up (right now it is just Coming Soon), and then, if anyone here buys it and reads it? DON'T TELL ME! Ignorance is bliss!!!

Yeah, I am nervous.
