...no signs of slowing down
Last week I went over the final edits from Hellbound Books for Mr. Crisper. The inside illustrations I sketched for the book turned out 'wicked good', and I'm pleased to say, it won't be long before Crisper hits the shelves. Fact is, advance orders are being taken at Shocklines as well as Barnes & Noble online.

This week, more final edits: Ghosts of Eden and The Ravenous are both back from the publishers (Five Star and Black Death Books) for a last read-through before going to press. Everything looks fine so far; the cover art for The Ravenous came in today and I posted it to my site. You can view it here: T. M. Gray's site. (I tried posting it in LJ, but all I kept getting was that annoying little box with the 'x' in it.)

Assuming you took a look, cool, eh? Many thanks to Majik and Keith. You guys rock my world!

Let's see, what else is up...well, after I get done with the final edits, I have to write a story for an upcoming antho (as I promised to a friend), then Hallow House gets a good going over.

Aside from editing, I have managed to watch 'Colonial House' on PBS and that was interesting as some of the scenes in Hallow House occur in that time era. As interesting as the program was, you couldn't pay this kid enough to live like that, uh uh, no way. (This unruly gal would have likely run off to join a Native American tribe! Like a lot of folks, some of my ancestors were natives, so chances are I would have fit in...albeit my luck, probably as their slave, heh heh)

Oh hey, before I forget: cukecumber slices work wonders for tired eyes. I've been using them a lot this week.

Late lunch is over. Cukecumber and mayo sandwiches, yum. No, not the same slices I used on my eyeballs, lol. Back to work for this kid....
