I have just completed the third revision of the files supplied to the publisher.

Not re-writing but re formatting.  I clearly didn’t follow the instructions carefully enough and the inner part of the book was too big.

There are minimal illustrations inside the book but they were of a too low resolution so they had to be re-made.

The cover was only one page, then I put in a spine but the book isn’t thick enough for a spine so I had to re-make that as well.

However, it is still only the 19th of January so publishing by February is still possible.

I thought it would be useful for you to know that I have completed the rewrites, drafts, formatting etc. and am now in discussions with a POD publisher with excellent distribution channels.

I now have a couple of weeks to prove to them that they should list my book although I think it really comes down to me paying them some money.

Obviously I will record my experiences with this process here to help you through it.
