2,5 weeks left!

2,5 weeks left! Sounds like a film title, but no. It is the more or less 2,5 weeks left to the booklaunch of Verborgen Leegte. The manuscript is allready at the printer so it will be ready coming november. The program is ready and we are very pleased with everybody who is contributing to make the booklaunch a succes. So far we’re satisfied. Things are going as planned, right on target. Though there is still a lot of work to be done. Next we will step up the PR. Be sure to look forward to the program of the booklaunch on 12 november 2010.

Getting the book published!

Besides working on the blog there’s a lot of time going into the first novel in Dutch we will be launching soon. Editing the book, looking for the right cover that expresses the core of the novel, dealing with the printer, dealing with the writer (thats a hand full), making a communication plan, working on how you want it launched. In short bringing out a good product that’s worthwhile and that readers would want to read and ultimately buy. Next getting the PR machine on the run. Look out for the announcement on the booklaunch.
