Holy Wow-za, I have an estimated release date!

So... Sweet Giordan, Please Remember has an estimated release date of Mar-Apr 2014! A springtime release for a sweet, fresh story. I'm VERY pleased! (Though honestly, I would have been pleased with ANY release date. 2084? Yeah, I can work with that.)

I will say this... I've discovered that I actually ALWAYS had an estimated release date. Yes, going all the way back to the very first day I received the contract. It was actually IN the contract. Now you might be thinking, "Raine? Did you even read the contract?" Yes! I did! I uber-read it, if that's even possible. Out loud. Page by page. Stopping to re-read what I didn't understand.

But when I got to the last page, the release was down in the contact information and my eyes went... sliiiiiiiiide. It wasn't until a fellow Dreamspinner author pointed it out to me that I said, "Oh! There it is!" I'm a nerd.

Should I be so lucky as to be multi-published, I will not miss future release dates. I promise. :)

  1. Congrats! I just received my contract this week :) I did see the estimated release date, but only after reading the whole contract for the 3rd time haha! Mine is Apr-May '14 for my first novella, so right after yours! SO glad to meet a fellow DSPer!

    1. And congrats to you, Jamie!! Can NOT wait to read "Silk Monsoon" ~ it's going to be incredible!

      Oh, and when I got my contract, I think I had about 15 minutes left on my cell before I went over for the month, so... You remember that old Geico commercial with "Bob Wehadababyitsaboy"? That's what I was doing to everyone in my phonebook, "I'mOutOfMinutesButI'veBeenPublishedOMG!BYE!" over and over again :) It's crazy thrilling, isn't it??

      So happy we're both part of the DSP Family now!

  2. HAHAHA omg I know exactly what you mean! I was about to lose my minutes any time that day and I was messaging everyone I needed to before I lost them!
    I can't wait to read your work too! I'm so excited to be part of the DSP family! I've been roaming the interwebz today pretending like I know what I'm doing ;)
