Yup, here's what's happening right now.
As you know, it's a POD product, which means that the gap from completion to it being available is the amount of time it takes me to upload the files to Lulu. There's no printing/distribution delay or anything like that.
So, clearly, the files have not yet been uploaded to Lulu? Could we upload them? Pretty much, yeah. The stickler is that darn Ragos section; I just keep going back to it and rewriting bits. I can't seem to leave it be!
Once I come to terms with the fact that I'll keep "improving" the section forever if I don't just put my foot down and say "now it's done!", I send it to Eric (the layout chappie), he puts it in the book and we're done. I upload to Lulu, order myself a copy to make sure it came out OK (no upside down pages, dodgy binding or anything), and then make it available and send out the preorders.
So the delay is all me. I keep opening the file and tinkering with it. I will stop soon, I promise, and send it to Eric.
