Today I received my Certificate of Registration, better known as my copyright registration for Blood Tears today.
I don't know about any other writers but there is something magical about this piece of paper.
Not that it makes my novel more real, it just feels official to me that my novel is shelved in the Library of Congress.
Despite taking almost a year to receive it I knew it would come and I will file it away along with my Certificate of Registration for my debut novel, Immortal Obsession.
In the same mail delivery I received the new proof for Blood Tears. I changed the author photograph and added some one liners from some of my favorite book reviews.
I took this as a sign that I am on the right track as I begin book three. Oh yes, Virginia, there is a book three coming!
