So I finished the e-book on Thursday--well. For certain values of "finished." The major creative part of it was blessedly done--now we begin the final editing/nit-picking process, which is a lot more finite and linear. I spent about five hours doing a red-pen readover of it (125 pages) yesterday morning with the Twilight Zone marathon in the background; now I'm going through and correcting all the appalling mistakes I found and syncing up the footnote numbering. I had hoped to have it on sale by Monday, but given circumstances beyond my control, I don't think that'll be possible. But we're talking a matter of days now, rather than a matter of weeks. So there's that.

Excellent. Congratulations. I haven't gotten any ebooks before but what's the rule about printing it out & reading it in hard copy? I prefer pages to screens for reading.

Oh, that's fine. The only reason I'm not selling hard copies is because it would be a non-functional product--the links to outside websites wouldn't work.
