    Hello! So I have some exciting news. I'm going to be publishing a book! But of course, I have to write it first. I will be starting around the beginning of next week and I plan to take about two months to do it before I turn it over to editors. At this point, it isn't if I get published, but when I get published. All I have to worry about is the quality of the work, which, of course, I intend to be high quality. :)

    Of course, that means I will be spending less time on the server. I won't be gone totally, but, like last November when I wrote 50,000 words in a month for NaNoWriMo, I will be on only every few days, and even then only as short breaks from writing.

    So, what I want to know is, if I keep a video blog of my work and progress, would anyone be interested in me posting it? I know we have a lot of writers and artists on the server.

    Wish me luck!

    -Squeezal... and his beard.

    Edit: Here is a sample of the book. Contains mild bad language. http://www.mediafire.com/view/5793bbe9f1bjj37/Gnome_beginning.pdf

    I would love a video vlog :D

    Any ideas for the book itself?

    Of course! I have it entirely outlined. I just have to write it. It's basically game of thrones, but with Gnomes. :)

    I would love to see some evidence of your work on here. I don't pick up a book as much as I used to (videogames hint hint) but sci-fi fantasy always perks me up.

    Perhaps I could be persuaded to upload the first scene, which is already written. I might do that tomorrow.

    That's a very good question. I will have to bring it up with my marketer. I also love being able to say that sentence :)

    If not you can just send me a (signed please) copy directly :)
    Or put one up on eBay and I'll buy it and pay with paypal.
    Or just give me a free (signed, can't stress the importance of that) copy, cos we're buddies :)

    Good luck squeezal!

    Thanks! I don't have a blurb yet, but I added the first scene to the main post. I have the next three days off, so I'm going to see how many words I can write.

    I thought you'd already written most of it?
    Good luck with the rest of it, hopefully it's done soon!
