Subject: Stray Kitten posting starts Author: Wes [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 20:30:59 10/20/13 Sun I just posted the first chapter of Stray Kitten. There are 39 chapters chapters. Sales on Lulu for hardcovers, epubs, and PDFs have also been enabled. RTF files, mobis, epubs, and PDFs are also available from the Spearfish Lake Tales Store. Preorders have been shipped. Very often when I put up a new story there are html bugs that don't show up when I tested it locally. I'll be up until about midnight local time, so if you notice something let me know and I'll try to get it fixed. Also, if you want to order a copy of Stray Kitten in one of the available formats, I'll be available tonight for that until around midnight EST. I will be going into the hospital later this week for fairly routine minor surgery. I will send the next update early, before I leave. Dan will be doing the last one of the week. He will also monitor my e-mail probably once a day to send any orders that may come in, so don't be impatient if it takes him a while to get one sent. I hope to be back for next weekend's upload. -- Wes [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

I don't remember the trademark/service-mark and other disclaimers at the bottom of the introduction page before; is this something new because of subject matter, or just something taken on advice, or..? [As an aside, I spent a moderate amount of time last night waiting for the update.. before it occurred to me that it was still Saturday! I guess I've been looking forward to this one.] Leo

I started doing it a couple of books ago. I should have been doing it sooner. Sometime when I don't have anything better to do I'll go back and add them to earlier books. -- Wes

A Spearfish Lake Romance in two easy steps. 1 - waste her family 2 - bring her flowers Adds up to eternal love! (disclaimer: don't try this at home, folks) sorry - I could not resist that one.

Just ordered Stray Kitten and am looking forward to this book. I have really enjoyed your books over the years and this one looks good as well. Don

I guess now I'll have to try to update it with this tablet since I'm still in the hospital but doing well. Wes

[> Subject: Re: Stray Kitten posting starts Author: Mismanager [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 12:37:20 10/24/13 Thu Wes, I bought an electronic copy of Stray Kitten from Lulu - I don't trust Paypal and see no other way to pay from the UK. The book is great, well up to your usual standards. I was surprised to be charged only $0.99 plus $0.19 UK sales tax. I was expecting to pay more. Are you especially generous at the moment, did I buy on a lucky day or, as I suspect, was this an error. Best wishes, Mismanager

[> [> Subject: Re: Stray Kitten posting starts Author: wes [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 21:29:25 10/24/13 Thu Well, that cost me $120. I know I updated the listing but lulu must have skipped a beat. I hope I was able to update it this time. I had to do it very cumbersomely with the tablrt. I am still in the hospital but am doing well.

I particularly >like the book cover: a kitten sitting next to a pistol. The heck of it is that it's not the cover photo I wanted to use. We have several cats hanging around the house but none were the right age at the time the photo was needed. So, I had to do a composite and it didn't turn out as good as some others I've done. -- Wes

[> [> [> Subject: Re: Stray Kitten posting starts Author: Lew [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 12:03:36 10/29/13 Tue The neat thing is, we have a Tortise shell cat who is the spitting image of the one on your cover.
