Romantic Times Magazine – AIB

After scouring the three towns in my area, I finally located the last copy in the cities of the Romantic Times Magazine. Frantically I turned the pages looking for my cover with each page I grew anxious What if, I’m not in here? As hopelessness bloomed, I found what I’d been looking for on page 117 and music came on. Everyone started dancing in the book store. Okay so the music and the dancing didn’t happen but the excitement did.

How did this come about, you ask.

My publisher, Lyrical Press, Inc placed an ad in the Romantic Times for its first birthday, which was May 1st 2009.

Happy Birthday!

Lyrical has been wonderful for my first time publishing experience. I’ve learn so much from my editor and all my dealings with the staff.

Aequitas I Betrayal is part of the ad, my very first advertisement as an author. I’m thrilled!

Kiss,
Mason

Line edits – AIB

Yesterday, while at the movies seeing X-Men Origins: Wolverine I got an email from my editor with my line edits. Yes, I’m addicted to my BlackBerry. No, I’m not seeking help.
When I got home, I went over them and was impressed at how little comments or markings I found in the pages. All the hard work my editor and I put in paid off.

I couldn’t have done it without the wonderful Mary Murray, my editor. One good things, is I now know why major authors are always thanking or acknowledging editors and line editors. I’ll go over the line edits, a second time with fresh eyes later today before I send them back.

Kiss,
Mason
