"Written on the Wall" A Novel (2025 release date coming soon!)
Getting closer to the finish line... latest from my publisher as of March 2025:
"Now that we have both your cover certificate and final proof certificate you can now be added to the queue to enter the final stage.
No more changes can be made now that your cover blurb has been confirmed.
The final stage is where the correct information is added to the barcode box and cover blurb. Your cover and manuscript will then be checked in house and prepared for printing. You will then be passed on to the publicity team who will put together your publicity material and gather contacts to promote and sell your book.
They will then contact you when they have a provisional publication date set.
It has been lovely working with you and I wish you well with your book."
Stay tuned for more updates as they come!...
