According to my counter, I am looking to release my first book in 11 days.
I am so not ready! At least, it doesn’t feel like I should be ready.
The book itself is done. I am still waiting to hear back from a couple of reviewers.
I have designed the front cover (I think).
I need to actually look at how to get the book on kindle.
I need to set up a webpage (easy enough).
But that’s about it, I think. Other than that, I am done!
That’s rather terrifying.
Sitting on 35k of the new book. Enjoying the flow of this one. However, am expecting an exceptionally busy couple of weeks thanks to my full-time job and I don’t know how that will progress;I come home pretty much ready for bed, look at the screen, and then hide on Facebook. Not particularly productive, but I think that it is good to have a break, there is no point burning out in writing or in the job. Still, knowing that I only have 11 days has certainly put the wind in my sails.

The nice thing about WordPress is that you can make your blog into a website. $17 a year and you can have the wordpress dropped from your domain name.
As for getting your book up on Kindle, go to https://kdp.amazon.com/self-publishing/signin and sign-up for kindle publishing. You can upload your eBook there.

Congratulations on your book! You must be very excited. Uploading to amazon is supposedly pretty easy. I’ve never done it, but I know a few who have. Let me know when you’ve got it up and ready!

Thank you, and it is both very exciting and stressful, as to whether it is actually going to come up to scratch. I have heard from others too that uploading isn’t that scary, can but try.
