Self-publishing: Where Mortals Fear To Tread

As a long-time writer who penned words to paper just for my own entertainment, I finally decided to explore the world of self-publication and see if I can't make something of it all.

Right now I'm working on a series of humorous fairy-tale adventures for the "tween" ages and am really hoping to strike a chord with not only the kids in the 8-12 range, but with the parents that read with their kids. I really like the idea of something that adults and kids will enjoy reading together.

My first release is "Sir Nathan and the Quest for Queen Gobbledeegook", a story about an overzealous knight searching for his missing queen. It's available on Smashwords as well as Amazon and I'm currently working through the submission process with PubIt! I'm also eagerly awaiting the paper proof from Create Space. Nothing like seeing all those typos in actual print on paper, right?

Book Description:
"Queen Gobbledeegook has gone missing and it is up to Sir Nathan, the Hero of Mariskatania, to find her. Along the way he meets all sorts of odd folks, including pixies and wizards and a hulking creature named Mitzy that likes to knit. The land of Mariskatania is a colorful one, filled with bright Jubb Jubb Trees and fuzzy, blue Hobnobber Squirrels who spend all their time looking for a snack guaranteed to poison them. "
