Getting It Right

Tweet

I got notice from CreateSpace that both Scarred and Freedom's Cry were ready to proof. I ordered a proof copy and also looked at the digital proof, then set up a call from CreateSpace to find out what the problem is with the manuscript. After working for at least an hour, I finally got the numbers correct. The size must be 6x9, it kept coming back as 8.5x11 no matter what I was doing. I pulled up a copy of another manuscript to look at the margin numbers, wrote them all down, then started again to correct everything, and finally I got it right. I've been through the proof copy twice now, downloading two different copies, and it's just finished the last copy I submitted. This one should be good. And it is. I just finished the last check on it. So Scarred should be ready in 24 hours for the last check, and then I can make it live and it will be available. Kindle will also be available at the same time. I've also downloaded the Freedom's Cry proof, and will go through that one for one last check. That one should be good, but I want to make certain. I don't need to do a last edit check on Scarred because this is the third edition, and there aren't any changes to the second edition. I just needed to re-publish it after firing my editors so I would have complete control over the book. I'm a perfectionist when it comes to my writing. Is there something you're a perfectionist about? Thanks for reading.
