Feeling worn out today
Posted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 7:46 pm
Today was another busy day and I’m feeling a bit worn out as I write this around 6:30 Monday evening, November 14, 2011.
Weekend sales were pretty strong – nothing amazing – but damn solid, making for a good weekend. With any luck, sales will remain strong all week – heck, maybe even from this point forward. Wouldn’t that be nice? At any rate, some distributor money came in today as well, so for a painfully brief moment, Palladium was looking flush. That happy feeling ended after I paid a pile of bills. Gone as fast as it came in.
Robotech® New Generation™ is done and submitted for final approval. We already got the approval on the front and back covers. Hoping to get approvals for interior pages tonight or early tomorrow. As soon as approvals are in, we send this baby to the printer. End of November release, here we come!
b]Rifts® Path of the Storm™ – One writer’s vision of the Rifts® Movie[/b] is next. Wayne is working on final edits. Artist Chuck Walton is back at our office working on the cover. I think this is a title that is going to surprise people. It is fun, informative and has useful game stats. Trust me on this one, you’ll enjoy it. Wayne will start on the layout of Rifts® Path of the Storm™ this evening or tomorrow. It should be finished and sent to the printer by Wednesday or Thursday.
I continue to work on Rifts® Lemuria while coordinating Endless Dead™, our next zombie book. Both are coming along nicely.
I think these 12-14 hour days are starting to take their toll, but I’m feeling hot writing, so I’ll probably keep at it for another hour or two. 8:00 PM will be 12 hours and I’ll go home by then. I suspect I’m fighting off a cold, which doesn't help matters. Got a physical with my new doctor on Thursday . . . not looking forward to that either.
That’s it for now. Books are looking good and rolling along. Keep those pre-orders and Christmas Surprise Package orders coming and those imaginations burning.
Sincerely,
