Where I'm at in the publishing process, pt. 2


 I thought it might be fun to do some documenting of my publishing experience.  Now that it has been two weeks since I signed my contract with Limitless Publishing some fun things are in the works!

Let's recap:

Sept. 10 - received a partial request from Limitless
Sept. 14 - received a full manuscript request from Limitless
Sept. 20 - received an offer of a contract to publish Chasing Forever
Sept. 24 - received contract
Sept. 28 - signed contract and became part of the Limitless Publishing Team
Oct. 1 - received a cover questionnaire, book blurb sample request and synopsis request
Oct. 6 - a new title has been given!
So here we are, Oct. 9th and folks, a change in your novel's title during publishing is inevitable and mine is no exception.  Remember the list from last week?
  1. Seeking Forever
  2. Finding Forever
  3. Grasping Eternity
  4. Chasing Eternity
  5. Rules of the Heart
  6. Searching for Forever
  7. Beautiful Forever
  8. Raining Down Rules
  9. A Chance At Forever
  10. The Beat of My Heart
Well, which one did you like?  The publisher and I both agreed and have decided upon one of the ten listed above ^^^.  Here is where I'd love to insert a drum roll, with sound effects of course.

I think it's a perfect title as the novel takes place in the Spring—hence the rain—and Jemma has her set of rules she's created to protect herself, yet she finds them crumbling around her—so the rain is bringing down the rules.  I'm super excited to see my cover when it's ready and even more excited to reveal it to all of you.

Let the game of patience begin...well, at least let it continue!

  1. I'll be adding an item to your timeline later today! :-) And I'm really happy with the title, too. It conjures some ideas that could translate into a really amazing cover, I'm thinking.
