52/100 copies of THE COMMUNICANT AND OTHER STORIES have arrived, after a Create Space snafu at their end. Books posted off. 2 boxes containing 48 books each returned to warehouse. 4 books in a packet arrive in Vermont South.
PizzaBoy was onto it, as soon as I, somewhat hysterically, said: "Where's the other 96?"
Embarrassed CreateSpace lass located the two boxes and expedited shipping.
One box here. Another box presumably coming soon.
Whew!
How awkward would it have been to stand up at the May 27 launch and say: 'Hey all, I only have 4 copies here, so fight it out amongst yourselves....No, no, please don't all leave!'

This is the first of my books that feels real. I think because I've had some much to do with the production. The others were handled by either P.S. Publishing, or by SnakyPoet as project overseer, and LovePoet and LovePoet's Wife as publishers.

The 'Giant Eye' book is in the world: in my hot little hands, on Amazon, and floating in space as ebook.
Okay, it's not my long-held dream of Tor Books, Harper and Collins, Bloomsbury, or any other big name publishers. But, it's a start, and it's mine, and I love it.
