So this last weekend I made a tough decision. Many of you have probably heard me talk about my YA zombie book at some point in the past. It's one I wrote for my husband, and may have given up on a long time ago if not for him.
This last month I received two offers on it, from two small publishers. After a LOT of thinking, I decided to turn them both down and self publish it. I've been thinking about self pubbing it for a long time, in fact I've already made a cover for it, and I decided this weekend that it's the right path for this book.
It's a bit scary, but at least I've done it once before now, so I know what to expect. And I have amazing critique partners who are willing to support me. (Seriously, I love you girls so much!)
So, on September 17th, I will be releasing
FLESH EATING ZOMBIES AND EVIL EX-GIRLFRIENDS.
Wish me luck! :)
Congratulations to your decision! I love the fact you stuck this through for a zombi-loving husband. Let me know when you do cover release and things, so I can shout-out for you (I'll try to be loud ;) )
ReplyDeleteCongrats and best wishes with your decision!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! That can be such a huge decision, and I can totally see why you might go self pub with it. I may or may not be in the process of something similar (no zombies, I'm afraid). Also, let me know when you want to do a cover reveal and I can help!
ReplyDeleteYou go Rach! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck!

ReplyDeleteOh, how exciting! I'm a huge horror fan, so this book sounds like a lot of fun to me. Good luck with self-publishing it! :D
