All the poems I initially set out to include in their various states of completion are now completed and organized into the appropriate sections.
The fonts are all uniform, but the formatting is frightening, and I’m thinking about putting two poems on a single page if they’re both single stanza.
There’s also all the other stuff that has to go in – the copyright info, dedication?, foreword, etc that has to be written.
Fortunately, I have been sitting on a cover. Just gotta do the back cover for the print copies!
I’m anticipating that I’ll be selling digital and physical books here and elsewhere, but I’m undecided on ‘elsewhere’ still.
It’s a mess, but a manageable one if I just keep doing what I can every day.
Thanks for being here with me. As a reminder, the release date for Still, I Rise is July 21st.
