Waiting on Create Space to send my proof copy
Created my email list to spread the word
I'm sure I'm missing something. It is a full time job just keeping my blogs up-to-date and social networking wherever I can.
Why do I have this feeling that the work has just started? Perhaps its because its the quiet before the storm. Once I play Paul Revere and get the word out I'll have to do book signings, book launching, interviews and God knows what else.
I'll have to get a publicist! Perhaps an agent or legal counsel for TV show or movie contracts. I'll have to buy a new suit in case I get invited to the White House or to be knighted by the Queen!
Ya never know what might be around the corner!
Perhaps I'm a little ahead of myself but it feels good to dream of the possibilities - although I doubt I would be knighted. In fact I could get into trouble because family lore has it that my grandfather, while rewiring the British Parliament building, sat on the Throne of England while eating his ham and cheese sandwich - I wonder if he left any tell-tail chums behind?
If this book is a success, I wonder if I could write a second volume about his life after the war? Anyone have thoughts on this subject? Care to write a comment or join the blog or request a signed book?
