Today when I got home from work late at night I was surprised to find two email messages from a Publisher, that wants to publish my book... (I had already signed the contract and sent in the copy of my book)

And do you know what they both said... ?
 
Basically it was welcome aboard and you are on your way to become an author!!!!!
 
I had a party right on the spot and wanted to explode in excitement, Im not planning to go asleep till 4 in the morning!!! I have said thankyou to everyone except you Simtropolis... why? I'll tell you why...
 
- When I was really down id come on here to post some pictures of my CJ, do a bit of BAT, and EVERYDAY you guys gave GREAT comments and compliments, putting a smile on my face 19.gif. I thought my life wouldn't get any better until I found this community, and it give me the confidence to get my freinds back, have a good time and smile again. -
 
Now that Ive acheived a milestone in my life I couldn't be happier! Ive actually worked on something and Ive got MAXIMUM feedback! It was ALL thanks to you! ALL of you! I wanted to just cry with happiness 31.gif44.gif48.gif.
 
So, becuase you gave me hope... Ive made this topic to say...
 
Thankyou, from the deepest reigons of my heart reserved for people that do so much to make me smile - and you all have! You put up with me and my grunts from time to time, and Ive tried my best in return to offer you all something imaginative, I hope I have, I really do!!
 
And... I LOVE YOU! (Ive been saying that everywhere!)
 
Especially to Dirk - He started this and I worship him, but I mustn't forget if it wasn't for the people, this site would have never got going!
 
Really now, Thank you all... And I hope to proove that Im being published soon... very soon...
 
Nealos101 - Happiest guy on the planet
 
btw... I LOVE YOU!

Published?  That is excellent!    39.gif  Congratulations  35.gif


We can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. But the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyzes: “I am talking with you in order to persuade you.” No. Each person dialogues, starting with his and her own identity. The church grows by attraction, not proselytizing.    - Pope Francis

Congratulations, trust me, it will be really cool to see your book in print with your name on it...I know someone who got numerous books published, and it was an awesome opportunity for them. Once you're published once, you will probably have many opportunities for various publications! Congratulations! 39.gif

    Well, seeming as though its coming soon, I'll tell you all...

    The book: The Angel of Death
     
    It's going to be part of a trilogy - The Extinction Trilogy
     
    What will be on the back cover:
     
    When two men and a mysterious woman meet in a mysterious twist of fate, not only does it begin the story of how their untouchable relationship blossoms and then wilts, but it also starts a horrific chain of events that could threaten the entire Universe

    Might the publisher be, Trafford or Cader Books?

    I get e-mails from publishers almost weekly. Be very careful what you agree to. 15% or walk. hehee.
     
    Anyways, a very big congratulations to you Nealos101!
     
    The cover sounds intrigueing(crud! I can't spell intriging?).
     
    Great promotional byte, rather.
     
    EDIT: get ready for those promotional book tours. Writng the book was the easy part, now they will run you silly, to sell yourself.
