Stars and Sabers Gazette Vol. 6
We're sharing updates for our anthologies and publishing slate!
Dear Readers and Supporters,
This past week, we received the proofread edits for our anthology, Of Shadows, Stars, and Sabers, from outstanding editor Scarlett R. Algee! Scarlett has worked in publishing as an editor for many years, and is also an author. We're honored to have Scarlett's keen eye on this manuscript.
And we are also delighted to share that she absolutely loved the book, and ranks it as one of the best anthologies she's ever read. Wow! (We agree.)
What's Next
Now that the interior has been proofread, we will begin the interior formatting of the book.
Our additional step is the complete cover, including the back cover, featuring all the anthology authors. Dash Creative is working with me to format that. But first we need to get the interior finished for page count purposes. So all of that should happen by early November.
We aim for general preorders to begin in November also, for the public, on all major bookseller sites.
As a reminder, the publication date is February 11, 2025.
Crowdfunding Update
We return now to the ongoing Ko-fi donation page, which has been directly funding the generous payments for our anthology authors!
