Sanctuary of the Mind
Well, I did it. I've uploaded my old story to Lulu, after doing as much editing as I could stand. Hopefully I did all right. If I didn't, I can always do it again since it's so easy to do, but I'm going try it out and see how it fares.
It isn't fantasy, and it isn't my favorite story, either; but it isn't bad. I did it in PDF download only, so it's pretty cheap. Originally, I had it in print form too, but, frankly, the price was too high for a work that's only 11,000 words. There's still plenty work to do with promotion, of course.
The novelette is called Sanctuary of the Mind, and here's the description:
Leslie Perk was not a good person. There was a time when he might have cared but it was long gone. He was a drug addict and a thief, and his feelings for his girlfriend were offensive at best. Still, he might have changed, might have become a better man and salvaged his love for Jackie. This was his hope, until something sinister occurred that seized control of his life . . .

Oooh, sounds dark and ominous and creepy--in a good way.
And brave choice of name for a male protagonist!
Off topic, but did I read in on one of your posts or on the boards that you have insomnia? Just wanted to alert you we're talking about it today over at my place.
Hey Michael,
Sorry to take up all your comment space!
I just wanted to warn you that I "tagged you" for some meme thing, one you've probably seen because we run in the same circles.
Feel free to ignore it.
The instructions start on my blog, and links to Thomma lyn's post and the Urban Monk who started it explain the rest. And ask me any questions you want, though I may not know the answers.
So that Crabby McSlacker got to you too!
Let us know how the Lulu publication goes.
I will, Dawn - promise.
I've been away for a couple days, so I haven't been able to update my blog. I'll get right to that real soon.
Oh, and um ... no problem, Crabby ... I think. :)
