Very Exciting News

The first of today's very exciting news concerns my family. My sister Megan had a successful delivery of Elizabeth Faith Hafle on Thursday of last week. (Yea, I know, it's been like, a full week. Don't judge. It may take me a while but I get there.)

 

(I stole this picture from Megan off of Facebook. I hope you don't mind. If you do send my a very bitter and judging message.)

 

Second order of exciting news. My book Cycle is now available for sale. You can purchase it at Amazon, or the CreateSpace e-store at this ULR https://www.createspace.com/4626634. If you get it off of Amazon you'll get to it more easily if you search for it under my name, (author name) Alex Quillian, than under Cycle. There are a lot of books out there that have the word "Cycle" in the title. (As cool as the amazon page is, get them at the direct URL if you could. Totally selfish request. I get higher royalties that way.)

 

 

See, it's all official. You can even look inside of it.

 

Third, last, but not least. Dave's Killer Bread is here, in Tennessee! All the way from Oregon I have missed your delightful, rich, wheaty taste. I have longed, and longed for bread this tasty ever since moving down here. They don't really believe in wheat bread down here. Even the wheat bread was white.

 

 

Failures

I have to important failures to discuss today. My first being, my failure to A Thousand Days. Starting in June, I just sort of stopped. I fell out of the habit, and well, never started it up again. A part of me is really upset for doing this, I was over half way done, after all.



Well, for any of you still following, my life is the same, pretty much. My oldest sister is having another baby, my second oldest sister got a new car because her old on kept breaking, and I am in a different semester of school. Same job, same basic interests. Same lame social life. I have accounts on a couple different social media sights, but due to the fact I never do anything I never post. In essence I am living the same monotonous unchanging life that makes for a rather lack luster lif

e on the internet. Maybe I should join Tumblr. Oddly it seems it is those kinds of people who become popular there.

 

On to other failures and potentially exciting news, I am attempting to make it so my book Cycle can be purchased. I am following the steps with CreateSpace, and it mat be available for purchase within the next couple weeks. It might already be available if not for one small thing.

 

The cover was monstrous.

 

When I was done with all of the steps and such, I sent in this picture to be the cover.

 

 

And this is what I got. More or less.





 

So I have reworked the cover to be lighter. I also chose a different picture that would not be as prone to being made dark and dusky I figured I would give it one more go. I don't have the money to keep ordering $7 dollar proofs indefinitely. It mat not seem like much, but this is the third proof. If I like this third cover, I will publish it through as many channels as CreateSpace offers, and maybe look into getting stalls for events, and junk like that. More as it comes up, which it probably won't.
