Self-Publishing. Update (11/17/04)

Since it has been a little while since my last self-publishing post, i thought it would be a good time to post an update. Things are still moving smoothly and I am making good progress on my new book. So far i am about 2/3 done with the initial first-draft writing and hope to be done in a few months (considering the holidays).

In addition, as I had mentioned, I have formed my own little publishing company called Paradoxal Press. Here is the logo for the company:

It is a simple logo, but that's thew way i wanted it :) At this point in time, my business is registered and i have made the logo design as well as prepared a business card and letterhead design. I currently have business cards on order and will soon order some letterhead. I am spacing out those expenses because holiday spending as well as possible travels to see my sick mother but i hope to at least keep things moving forward. My next step is to get letterhead and get a basic website up and going.

In addition, I already have two authors showing some interest in my publishing model and I am in discussion with them with how we will proceed. This also means i have to get an author contract ready. I've already started on a draft for this (based on other contracts I've seen) but will likely be refining it over the next few months.

Stay tuned for more up to the minute developments :)
