First proofs arrived for Butterfly Away, and the cover is gorgeous! We have to go to second proof now because there were font errors (mine) on two pages. We should still make April deadline because I always plan on there being at least one or two series of corrections needed.
Some of you have wondered why I don't just do a quickie type of print job, like Lulu. I'm not knocking anyone who uses Lulu, but I'm more of a hands-on, perfectionist type of person, and it's really important to me to do this the way that allows for the best products at the highest quality, and at the lowest price for our readers.
I hope you are all as thrilled with this anthology as I am.
Still waiting to hear back from the photographer for Many Windows. As soon as a cover is finalized, I'll post it on the Magnapoets anthology page.
