I finally created a Facebook Fan page. You can access it here: Marla Braziel's Official Facebook Fan Page. I will also be putting a link in the sidebar of this blog. Everyone seems to love Facebook so hopefully if I keep up with it it will be an easier way to keep up with updates and what not, though I will probably only post when I'm running a free promo or if something particularly interesting is going on. I'm not a big fan of status updates, even on my own personal Facebook account. Facebook is just not something that I'm really that into.
In other news, it feels like my retinas are bleeding. I've been editing Under Construction for the last two hours. I have about an hours more editing to go. I'm currently 2/3rds of the way through it. If my eyes don't fall out of my head, there's a slim possibility that I might finish it tonight, though I'm not going to hold my breath. All of the stuff I'm going through right now is pretty well written the first time around . . . but I know that the last chapter of the book is a bloody mess because I was so tired when I wrote it that I totally ignored all grammar and punctuation rules and completely made it fluff free (basically all dialogue with nothing in between). So yeah, the last chapter will definitely take me longer to edit than the rest of the book has thus far.
On any note, I'm starting to have a feeling that it might end up getting published tomorrow as long as I don't flub around too much during the day. It would be nice to get it out there so I can start working on book #3.
After getting multiple estimates from cover illustrators and checking out what I could get done on Fiverr, I have decided to continue with my own cover design ideas. I can do as good of a job as the people on Fiverr, and I just can't afford to hock out $300 - $500 for unique cover illustration right now. Maybe someday if the books gain enough popularity. As of right now though, my mad GIMP skills will do just fine. LOL
Well, that's it for the update today. Back to work with me. *cracks whip on myself*
