Posted to iBooks and to Lulu today! YAY!!

It was a real effort. The Pages program did not seem to want to do things correctly so I wound up editing xhtml and other data files by hand. About four days of work.  😦

The big drag now is that no one can give me any idea as to how long we have to wait for iBookstore Quality Assurance approval. Some blogs are saying 30 days or more!

Here is the link to the Lulu account where people can buy a PDF version. That is readable on almost all systems.

Free Sample The Room

Pool Hall Scene.

(Urban Fantasy – 854 words)

Michael looked up as a tall, slender figure entered the smoky poolroom. He was wearing a fedora and an elegant black coat, and Michael was sure he’d seen him before, but he couldn’t remember when.

It was one of those nights when it seemed as though he had been in this game hall for eternity.
