Demon Revealed Release

It's available on Amazon:  http://www.amazon.com/Demon-Revealed-High-Series-ebook/dp/B00A57PDJG/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1352591650&sr=1-1&keywords=connie+suttle+demon+revealed

Waves and Uploads

I didn't intend to upload Demon Revealed while I was in Port A. I'm much more comfortable doing that from my desktop at home. I didn't intend to format it at the beach either, because I only had my laptop and iPad with me, and both of those things can slow down or stop abruptly with a slightly shaky internet connection.

Best laid plans, right? I had the book finished, and it was just sitting there. Therefore, I took a chance, formatted it the best I could with what I had to work with and uploaded it 2 1/2 hours ago. It's showing up on Amazon, but it's still being listed as "not currently available." Here's hoping that it becomes available soon, and when it does, the formatting is like it was when I previewed it before submitting. Keep your fingers crossed. If it shows up and it's okay after a while, I'll breathe a huge sigh of relief and get back to writing Destroyer.
