Daughter Has A New Book
-
My wife has never liked that sort of thing. Romance fantasies that genre. She likes your basic mysteries.
same here. and fiction books with cats. Does this book have cats in it? lol

Wife and I are going to daughter's book signing at Austin Arboretum Barnes & Noble store this afternoon. I can only steal the computer in the middle of the night because my wife has absconded with it during daylight hours to edit her next novel just completed and being readied to send to the publisher.

She's written several others but this is the first to be picked up by a publisher and placed in national bookstore chains. And I was wrong about Target. It was B&N and Walmart.

Does she get her manuscript copyrighted before she sends it to the publisher? I assume she does...?

That is the first of 3 in a series and they are taking on another series of 3 with different characters.

She told me she copyrights everything she writes for publication, even the initial ones she self published.

BTW here are all the awards she has won thus far with her writing, likely the reason why she was picked up for national distribution.
https://abigailowen.com/about-the-author/awards/
She attributes it to the recognition of what she thought was her best before The Rogue King and The Boss, Andromeda's Fall.
The Boss (1st of that second series) just won first place in The Prism awards and she was invited to NY to accept the award. Andromeda's Fall won the same award in 2015. She's one heck of a writer. In my signed copy I bought yesterday of The Rogue King she wrote, "To Dad, who helps with my many personalities."? As the daughter of a counselor/psychologist she is very familiar with the concept of "Multiple Personality Disorder" in my diagnostic manuals.LOL! Like many an author she has successfully created "personalities" in all her fictional writing.

That would also come in handy on this board.
BTW congratulations to her.

Yes, she is. Thanks.
PS-And I taught her so well in skydiving that she exceeded my minor accomplishments by winning a 4 person relative work national competition in Denver one year. She's a Renaissance Woman. LOL! ?

I hope you never write a recipe book - nobody wants your recipe for turd stew.

nah. Your daughter is amazing - I wish I could get my novel published. I'll figure it out, about how to decide it's ready, and where to try. You still hit my threads when I least expect it. Think about that next time.

The novel I want to write involves Time Travel.

I've had some friends read mine - some quit after the first two chapters - it stopped being funny for a while...
a few friends loved it, want me to get it published, and my Wife and friends Mom read it, really liked it, except for highlighting my mistakes - like run on sentences, too much descriptions in certain places.
They were right. It's different when you write it, and then when you read it. LOL. I just wanted to get the adventure down officially.
