Hello everyone,

I'm a new member and started the FeedARead publishing process on my 1st novel on New Year's Day. I completed the final step, re the cover on 3 Jan and so am awaiting word that the printers have done their bit and that I can have an actual proof copy in my hand.

My novel has a Titanic theme, and so I hoped to have it on sale by mid April this year. Several magazines have agreed to review it in their April issues, but they need a hard copy by 9 Feb and I don't think I'm going to make their deadlines.

Not sure why, but I feel as though I'm about to give birth! Anyone else felt scared to death at this stage as I do? Ooer!

So, it's just me then. Still awaiting my proof copy from FAR, which is most disappointing. I'm told the printers have a big backlog after Christmas.

I've not been at your stage in the printing process with my work but I'm sure, if I were, I would be scared to death too. I hope everything works out and you get your proof copy soon.
Best wishes, karen.
