This weekend, I'm working on the final print galleys for Lady Lightkeeper. Its always exciting to work on galleys since that's the last step before the book is sent to the printer :) I'm catching little things and enjoying reading the next installment in Lizbeth Sullivan Kinsey's story. There are some interesting twists in the story and a number of secrets are revealed. Some are revealed to the characters and some are new for the reader as well.

In case anyone reading this is curious about "galleys" - this is a simple explanation. My publisher sends me a file with each page of the book laid out, just like it will be in the book. I review each page to see if anything is wrong and needs to be fixed. I personally print out the entire book and make all corrections in red ink on these pages. Then I type the wrong sentence into a new file and below that I type the corrected sentence. These are sent to my publisher and she makes the changes, then she sends them so I can check once more. Once we're both satisfied, they are sent to the printer. Editing is not my favorite part of writing, but this is the last time I'll edit this story :)

I was thrilled to find that Lady Lightkeeper is #3 on the ebooksonthe.net bestseller list on Fictionwise and its #268 out of almost 4000 romance ebooks. At first glance that doesn't look so great, but when I calculated it, Lady Lightkeeper is selling in the top 7% of romance titles of Fictionwise. That's thrilling :) For more info about the book - visit - http://www.fictionwise.com/eBooks/eBook43054.htm?cached

Time to get back to work, just wanted to share my evening with you all :)
