Back in the Office....

Today I received my first royalties payment from Lulu.com. They pay a month in arrears, so I've been paid for the books (The Magic of the Camino sales) sold up to the end of November.  It wasn't a fortune- I can buy a few glasses of Cava!! but it makes the experience all the more real.

Incidentally The Magic is now available on Amazon.com too - but there it is only available at full price. For discounts Lulu.com is always the best place to go. The 20% discount I organised when it was first published still stands and from time to time Lulu offer other discounts that can make the actual price even cheaper.

I've also been at the PC today for an hour or so, reworking the first couple of chapters of the new book. I want it to be a sequel to 'Winner' but also want it to be a stand alone. In the first draft I had introduced characters without them being properly introduced - if that makes sense. Anyone who reads Winner will recognise them, but otherwise you'd be saying so who is 'Josh' for instance, so I had to add a bit in to clarify what's what and who some of the cahracters are. 
I've really enjoyed gettng back with the process and the characters, and although I was worried the story might not flow after a break so far so good.
I was also unhappy with my original title, so this afternoon Tony and I brainstormed a few ideas, when he came up with the one I think I will be using, but for now that's under wraps - I want to be completely happy with it before revealing what it will definitively be called.

So I think today we can say House of TulStig Publishing is well and truly back in the office!
