Sooner or Later!
After a delay of a couple of weeks, and having chased again, Ive got semi confirmation that the second book is a - go! Im not upset about the delay, in fact its good timing as I had alot to do over the last month. I also dont blame the publisher, as it must be difficult keeping track of all the "possible" projects, not forgetting the many requests they must get. As mentioned in the past few posts, patience is a very useful skill to try and practice as you will definately need it for writing a book. Anyway it gave me the chance of getting upto level 10 on World of Warcraft. :)
So now i've been advised that the book is effectively been approved what happens next you might be asking?
First Ive stated to the publisher that the book will be complete at the end of August. That is going to be a tight deadline, but the first book was hardwork, and took about 8-10 months in all. There were problems with delivery of certain key aspects of the book especially the games. This led to weeks where I wasnt working. I also struggled at times and I think now I've learnt a few things that it should be straightforward (fingers crossed) to breeze though it.
Well its time to start planning out the work and what i need to do, just some of the things that will need to be progressed before any serious chapters can be created:
Permissions - any images, websites, quotes or content will need written approval before the book can go to the publishers.
Software - This is in hand, and I already have this ready.
Book Games - Will need to source a graphic Artist (have one in mind who is A+)
So you can guess from some of my comments, my second book is all about games again ;) but thats all i can reveal for the moment.
I have started the permissions process, and will start the graphics creation in about two weeks time (it will take alittle managing and cost some money). Some of the games will take very little graphic work and will mean the Chapters will be very quick to write.
Thats all for now, will be back in a couple of weeks to let you know how Im getting on. I don't expect that I will reveal the project details for a couple of months. But you will hear it here first.
Thanks
Jason
