Ok, so I know this book release is turning out to be a bit like Microsoft, with what seems to be no exact release date. For that I do apologize. I figured it might be a good explanation to explain how things work in "self-publish" world.
Right now, the manuscript is complete, and I have a "proof" - a copy of the book in its completed form to make sure it is exactly how I want it published. This most recent copy of the book has a few minor graphic errors that I could not have seen until I saw the book in print form. So, here's what has to happen:
1) I make the changes needed and upload the corrected manuscript.
2) It takes 24-48 hours to get the formatting of the manuscript approved.
3) Once approved, I then order a proof, which takes 2 days to get me. (I order every one overnight to make sure it gets to me as soon as possible.)
4) I receive the proof, then approve it.
5) Once approved, it takes Amazon 5 - 7 business days to make it available on line.
So, the original release date was supposed to be today, June 28th - however, I discovered a few small errors in the final proof, so I have to repeat the above process once more, which means that the book will not be out for another 2 weeks. For this, again, I do apologize. It will be soon, I promise. I want to make sure WNBA fans get the absolute very best.
Stay tuned. It's coming. I promise.
