Indebted

I've hit yet ANOTHER SNAG in the release of Indebted.  The cover is not ready.  This will probably push the RELEASE OF INDEBTED to the FIRST WEEK OF APRIL 2012.  I apologize to all of you who've been waiting for months for this.  I'm not happy about it, but I understand that when mistakes are made the best thing to do is fix them and move on because just like in GET IT DADDY by SLEEPER AGENT:  "I'M NOT A BABY NO MORE" EITHER
·      Here are the details for the cover:  CreateSpace sent me the cover mock-up after 5:00 p.m. on 3/21/12 (which was Wednesday).  I was scared to open it because I wanted it to be perfect.  I said a small prayer and then I peeked.  It was perfect...perfectly wrong and I thought at first it might be a joke—more like a prank.  The cover was great, there was only one small problem: it was the EXACT SAME COVER as INTUITION—trees, red feather—except it says Indebted on the front. 

·      I called them the next morning (because they were already gone when I called on Wed.) and found out that the designer had pulled the wrong cover option off the file because there were two—one I used for Intuition's cover and the one I want to use for Indebted's cover.  (The odds were fifty-fifty and I guess he was feeling lucky.)

·      So since it's their mistake, they're going to fix it fast and get it to me sooner than the 5-10 days, right?  WRONG!  I couldn't get them to help me out like that.  I guess at least I now know where I stand.  (I think that they should know up front that they can't break me.  I've already been toughened up by my attempt to get a literary agent.  They're lightweights compared to that torture.)

·      In the words or Winston Churchill:  You do your worst - and we will do our best.
