The printer has finished printing all the sheets for the new book's pages, and I've been given a set to look over - that's one of them up above! They all look good, so thanks to Lilly for preparing an attractive layout and tuning the images, and to Suk Woon for working with the printing company's technicians to get the best results.
The sheets still need to be cut, folded, and bound before I can hold a finished book. And one other thing I've learned this time round is that we also have to wait for boxes to be made - each set of books the printer deals with are a different size and shape, so a new set of cardboard boxes must be made each time.
But we're getting close, and I'm told to expect the books to be delivered on "the last few days of November, or the first few days of December". That means it's time to think about the pre-launch offer. I'll post up details of the offer later this week.
