Thanks,

Sent everything in for printing last weekend, unfortunately it will take a week for it to actually print.

I could not figure out how they wanted the design software setup and in the end I just did a rough estimation so who knows what I'll get back.

Boooo! Booooooooo!

Lol I hosed up pretty badly, somehow I hadn't noticed that I had a duplicated page in there during all this time (it was even missed by two people I showed it too).

I'll have to wait for the test print to arrive to fix any issues before trying to print again, the current prints will be good enough for the thread but I wanna do at least one more print before they go out for sale. I'm pretty sure I would have had to do this regardless due to my cover images probably not being aligned very well.

So expect some professionally printed ghosts in the thread next week (if the printing time is correct)!

..but no actual way to buy anything until mid December the earliest :/

This might or might not be in the book..

christmas 2058. midway through the holiday festivities, I hear the crooning call of the comfort of my study. I announce that I will retire for the night, to little fanfare. I hurry upstairs to prepare for the yearly ritual. donning a velvet robe and suede slippers, I set a virtual vinyl on the turnstile app, set my e-pipe alight, and pull out my AR reading glasses. my worn eyes float over the literary classics adorning the shelves along the walls; the voices of dumas, brontë, austen, fitzgerald, and more are almost audible beneath the overtones of bach's cellos and the muted din of the to-do downstairs. the house AI reads my intent and chimes in with a link to the virtual library—bottomless, ethereal, cold. the heart, of course, knows what it wants. I pull a key off the gold chain around my neck, slide it into the top drawer of the davenport, and retrieve my favorite—the fredrik, his first classic, "to serve ghost," paralleled neither hence nor since. I ease into the bergère. a literary journey well-tread, perhaps, but what is old age without a little nostalgia?

Dinner, has never been spookier.

































Some of you might have noticed some oddities in here, very fittingly for my ghost book it will probably take seven days until I receive the next print and before I can publish this.

The final book will have better graphics! (or at least better aligned and with text that doesn't go outside the page)

More content! (I had to add another page, I think the publisher was incorrect about the minimum page count and it's actually 29)

and that's about it really.

Thanks BYOB, your support made this happen.

Sales will be through the publishers e-store, I see no reason why they wouldn't ship to Australia.

I have a wooden stump. Thus I'm not able to be eaten unless you like tongue splinters.

no. I'd just prefer not to be eaten. I don't even have a flavor. I tried sucking on my "tail" once so I'm speaking from experience there.

You should join the army so they can give you metal stumps.

I doubt they’d let the deceased into the army. I’m technically not alive.

Buddy, if your dead and still talking, the army would love to get to know you. Dying is a huge issue for them, it seems to happen a lot.
