My last blog entry was on November 6, six weeks ago. I have been a busy camper assembling my "book launch" machine to put out several different promotion vehicles to get the word out on my book.
-Jesse and I have tentatively completed, Cancer On My Mind, a song I sung/spoke, we wrote and produced music with Garageband in six months. We recorded the vocals in a clothes padded 3 by 6 foot closet, containing a microphone stand and microphone, a hiking head lamp, and a lot of patience. This took us six months to complete.
-I subscribed to a Google News search of brain tumor and have been posting current brain tumor stories to my blog, Cancer On My Mind on Blogger.
-Jesse and I have been trying to devise a plot/story and sub-plot for a video based on the song lyrics to shoot and post on YouTube in late January or February 2010.
I have been looking at web sites and am in the process of designing my own web site, possibly through Yahoo or Google to promote and sell my book. Google offers a business geared web site, which I need to do more research on before making a choice.
I have been talking to Steve D about ideas for shooting a book cover. Steve and I shot a draft book cover in June 2009, but will re-shoot it with a new and improved facial expression of myself, a cleaner Photoshop edit, and a better brain graphic to work with.
-I think I located a book company to Publish On Demand (POD), BookLocker, who will give me the lowest price I have found so far, $517 minus $200 (for providing my own cover) equals $317.
I am always busy working on the projects listed above and am looking forward to finishing everything listed above.
