Over 1/3 of the way! Thank you everyone!

Almost 1/3 of the way!!!

After a friend's advice (thanks, Gerry!) I have decided to self-publish with Amazon's CreateSpace and, amongst their many benefits, they are $1000 less expensive, so we are almost 1/3 of the way to $2040! Wahoo, thank you everyone!

Comment from Jamie Pearson

Cool! Your site is looking great! I can't wait to read the book, I read the preview chapter and loved it. I'm so pleased for you that the site is all up and running and I hope that the contributions flow in because it seems like you have put in a lot of effort and you really deserve the reward of publishing your book. And what a surprise I got when I saw my name on the acknowledgments page!! That is so nice, and you are very welcome!

Keeping the dream alive!

Thanks to those people who are keeping the dream alive with their donations! Much appreciated. I'm madly typing up what should be my penultimate edit before handing my manuscript to Shirley Brown for her editing efforts. After a friend's suggestion I am also checking out self-publishing with CreateSpace (Amazon). Does anyone have any experience dealing with them? XX

The ball is rolling...

Thanks so much to those of you who have got the ball rolling - I hope that it's not only me feeling excited!

About the book

In my book, "Blue Creek Bride," I tell what it's like to be a rookie in the Rockies, travelling on horseback with Phil, my husband of only six months, into the back country of Jasper National Park.
