I took a break from writing in this blog since May 2009, and am back to report on some new news about my book.
I have been working hard with my creative friend, Jesse, writing a song, producing the instrumental tracks with Apple software GarageBand, and recording the vocals to the song in 9-10 six to ten hour recording sessions in a padded closet, standing in front of a microphone stand and microphone. This process took 5 months to complete.
If you have never recorded vocal of any kind, please take my advice, and think about how difficult this task might be to accomplish, and the insanity you might experience to finish recording all the vocals needed.
Jesse and I have some great ideas for a video to shoot for a later posting of the entire package on YouTube in 2-3 months.
I talked to a great photographer, Steve, an airport screener at SFO, about re-shooting a new front cover of my book, for possible self-publishing run. He has to gather some lights, and we will shoot it in his garage in front of a black background, to make PhotoShop edits easier.
I sent out 10 more book agent queries and received 10 more denials.
I am not going to give up just yet on getting a book agent to represent me, and get my book on the shelf.
