Been working

Been working, though the results won't show for awhile.

Found a cover artist for With Stars Underfoot. Should have rough in hand RSN.

Have two chapbooks in the works as SRM Publisher's first ebooks.
(Have to send a contract add-on to an author, and
I hate contract stuff, so I'm behind... sigh).

Have identified a couple places to advertise SRM and Crystal Solider between now and New Year.
Have not identified where advertising money is coming from.

Have printed up a bazillion Crystal Soldier fliers. Some will go in SRM mailings; need
to figure where the others go -- anyone going to a convention soon and want to distribute
some of these things?

Despite these advances, not an entirely satisfactory week, particularly writing wise.
Perhaps, starting this afternoon, things will improve.

Interesting idea -- except that my attempt to use google ads in the past was an utter failure -- probably the worst failure I've had in advertising in my life. And that's a lot of ads. They disallow most of my key points in an ad and then tell me that the words I use since they disallow my other words... aren't effective.

The ebooks in question btw, are by other authors. Strangeness: Embiid publishes most of our stuff and I'll be publisher of record of these other books, with Embiid as distributor. As soon as I have some stuff totally nailed down I'll mention it here and elsewhere...
