I have had two exciting things happen today.

First, my galley proofs are in! What is a galley proof?

In the olden days, a book was typeset and placed in trays called galleys. The book was typeset and a copy was printed for proofreading and called the “galley proof”. Any changes that needed to be made were done so before the book was printed in its final form.

And so, I now get to read through the galley proof for “The 13th Demon”. Good news is, I can make sure there are not any glaring mistakes. Bad news is, I will want to rewrite the entire thing!!! That is the curse of being a writer.

Second, I am now on the official blog of Charisma House — Realms Books’ author blog. Check it out:
