*stabs monkey with a ball point pen*

am i in it?


(looks up) wow, i sound stupid.


Well, I have to say: http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2626028/1

Writing seems to have become a popular past-time of retired spaceo players.  Emi, what do you put into the game to brainwash us?

BTW - fictionpress has this really nifty thing were you can get people to "beta read" your books/stories (for free) it's like a free editor. - A lot of them are the "Going for masters in English to become an editor and need experience to perfect the art" kind-a people.   If you’re interested in how ask me in msn. (I'll respond as soon as I can)


All 3 of the SO stories were once up on my fictionpress and were heavily reviewed and many suggestions given. fictionpress is a good site for writers.

And I made writing a popular passtime for SO players ;P

And yes lamma, you're in it, you were one of the big players in the 2nd story originally, I'm not completely redoing the entire series, god, that would take too long. I'm just improving parts and the overall flow of the series.

Update time: Editing is taking a while, but is NOT the reason for a significant delay, I actually slowed how fast I am editing down due to the fact that I lost my cover artist, sadly, the original has too much school work going on right now to do the cover, so I had to get a new one, though I'm not 100% confident in his abilities as I was her. So for a release date...I don't honestly know...no sooner than March for sure though.

Now, questions: Does anyone here have significant spacescape photoshop skills? and 2, what would you guys think a good cover would look like? I want some input (Note, this will NOT affect the cover the current artist is working on, just if i go with someone else/drop this guy).

by reviewed i meant the beta, lol. i had 3 guys before i pulled it off for publication and it helped a lot. A LOT of the revisions were things they pointed out for changing.
