Thanks guys! I'm holding off on any distribution for now. I don't want to run into any copyright issues (I will look into this some more, though, and see if there's a way around it so I can share the physical copy)! But parts I and II of the book are on the forum, and have actually gotten some really nice feadback so far! I'm actually in the process of going through and making a bunch of grammar corrections, so they'll read significantly smoother :)

Tammo, that is amazing!!! Having you book in your hand must be exhilarating. Good job and congrats!
I'm gonna go read it now.  ;)

I published a friend's book online a couple years ago with lulu.com. It was around the same price but the book was significantly smaller, so I'll look into your website.
Sherlock
Doctor Who
Beyond the Western Deep
Mouseguard
Ranger's Apprentice
Lord of the Rings
The Chronicles of Narnia
The Book Thief
Harry Potter
Percy Jackson
:D
And many many more...

What was the book called?

By the way, just to be perfectly clear, the book isn't an ebook (meaning online) I just meant I published it using a company online.  :D
The book is called James and the Fairy Queen. I believe said friend actually posted the story in the fan works since it did have Redwall elements to it. Lemme see if I can find it...

Forewarning: It was written a couple years ago and it's the unedited version.  :)
Sherlock
Doctor Who
Beyond the Western Deep
Mouseguard
Ranger's Apprentice
Lord of the Rings
The Chronicles of Narnia
The Book Thief
Harry Potter
Percy Jackson

Wow! This looks, really, really good. Keep it up! I would like to see more. :D



By the way, you can get your book published through Amazon very cheaply, but I'm not sure if that would infringe upon Brian Jacques' copyright...

EDIT:

Everyone's said what I came to say...
Yeah, I do stuff sometimes.

It's been a while since I first posted this and I've since updated the story's grammar and such, as well as the cover. Here's a picture of what it looks like now! (I switched the name for obvious purposes)

You can check out the story right here on the Forum!

Awesome!

If I could write a long enough story, I'd love to be able to do this.

Thanks :) It took a pretty good chunk of time to do. In fact, I never really thought I'd finish it in the end. It just turned into one of those hobbies that I did on my spare time and one day I realized I was finished!
