Any format will work, even a word document. I can readily convert them to PDFs on my Mac.

Arright, when do you leave again? We can probly all export as PDF ourselves. Slap our cover art on an early page, do that, and get it to you by random means.

You can email them to me. My email address is my name with my middle initial (e, in the middle of course), all lower case at yahoo d.o.t. com. Hopefully that was obscure enough to avoid the web crawlers.

I got my book in the mail and I don't want to say anything positive about a corporation on the internet in case they screw over some nice person and I have to feel bad about having misled them, so I shan't mention their name but
It. Is. AWESOME!
Just one or two things in it that aren't perfect, aside from the fundamental flaws in this early (& still probably last) draft, but it looks great! The dust jacket is a little loosey-goosey but I can probably crease it to stay on better. The pages are a little weird - not quite the feel of a fancy white hardback, not quite the feel of a chintzy pulp paperback. But not as weird as some people online have said. I got the page orientation right, the images I put inside worked, nothing on the cover was out of place, the image levels read (Ernest didn't end up too dark or light), just... everything is great.
So I'm inspired to stay up all day reading Kelly's, fixing last minute typos, and cash in his free copy. See, the folks just got back to us & said they'd still do it for free. Not sure if we'll be able to use that customer service offer on a better edited copy, but I aim to find out as well.
I'm pickled tink.

That sounds great. So glad the process had a positive outcome.

Eeeeh my book finally came in, and it's fantastical! Thank you, corporation!!!! Mom's visiting for a couple days - when she saw the cover, she thought I leveled up 9000 times in arts and was like "whoa ur the most talented Deekender!" And I was like yeeeeeah, thaaaanks, but I did not make this cover. And she was like "the person who made this cover is way cooler than you." It's true. It's so true.
TL;DR = the book looks great!

Congrats Deek. You're totally cool mang! They don't call you Dry Ice for nothing. I wants to read it, you have to start posting more of it here. I've started writing The Gazebo again and I'll post here once I've got a decent amount. I did decide to rewrite a chunk you guys haven't seen but yeah. Please Deek!
