The book files are done! I'm submitting my application to the printer so it can be included in their on-line store, and the PDF for sale should be completed tonight. After all that's finished, then I can add the order for the PDF to the Un-store, put up both buy links at my site, and be all set! The only lag of the moment is waiting for the printer to get the files entered properly.
Best, Ron
I am looking forward to this!
So, these are the last few hours in which I can look down to non-italian speakers because I have Shahida and they don't? Bummer, I didn't do that enough when I had the occasion....
The PDF is available now (http://theunstore.com/index.php/unstore/game/154). I'm not making a big deal of announcing it until the book's available too. The printer has all the information so it's a matter of wading through their process.
You see, if you buy the book, you get the PDF for free if you ask for it, but it doesn't work in reverse - you can't buy the PDF and use it as a pre-pay for the book. So I want to wait until the book is available before posting at G+ or seeing it announced at Gente Che Gioca (Moreno!).
But I figure people who frequent this site and who want the PDF only might as well know that it's live. I'm happy about that, definitely.
Best, Ron
This is great news!
Sweet success!
Done! (http://www.publishersgraphicsbookstore.com/Shahida-by-Ron-Edwards_p_84451.html)
The deal is that you get the PDF as well when you buy the book, although you have to contact me personally (not automatic). It doesn't work in reverse; you can't buy the PDF and then get a pre-pay on the book. International customers are urged to buy the PDF because the package includes, in addition to the screen-view version, a version which you can print locally into an actual book.
