Upfront I am not using my recent miscarriage as an excuse, because as everyone who’s been involved with this project knows, I’ve been dropping the ball on this book for over a year now. It’s been one thing after another. but I just wanted to let you all know what’s been going on with me lately that’s been preventing me from working. I recently went back to work full-time at another job and also been making sales with MSPmedia, so I will have the money to pay all the writers. That’s been a big part of the delay too, truth be told I didn’t want to admit I didn’t have the money to pay everyone all at once. In retrospect I could have/should have just paid what I could all along; you all would have been paid by now. But at this point all I can do is move forward and get the checks out, along with the books!

Next step: email all the writers and make sure I have everyone’s correct mailing info and/or paypal. Tried to do it tonight and of course (of course!) gmail is acting up. or maybe it’s just my computer, I don’t know. Getting frustrated so I’m going to bed, will figure it out tomorrow after work. I also need to make sure I get everyone’s online info who is interested, like websites and what-not to link to the Futuristic Motherhood website.

I’m making final touches to the Futuristic Motherhood book, including my own story by Mercury Lynch. This weekend I need to email all the writers and coordinate some things. It’s been so long since this project started, I figure some people have probably moved so I need to make sure I have everyone’s correct mailing info to get payments to them. At last! My friend Kim, also an indie publisher, is helping me with press releases, posting about it around the web, and stuff like that.
