I don't think he's unavailable, he repeats that he wants to do it. He is distracted by desperately trying to make a living. Maybe contact from other Anthology authors would distract him in the opposite direction. Remember he said he wants this on his resume -- it's a good thing for his career.
If I tried the layout, it wouldn't be a professional thing. I don't have that kind of training. I would just be trying to match what I see in books.

Good idea Joy - moaning here for another ten pages isn't going to get much done.
Go easy on him though evryone. I know we've all had times (sometimes very long times) when real life has turned to shit on us, so I'm sure we can understand.

You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

I agree. This project has been going on for far, far too long. We had all the entries a YEAR ago, all that needs to be done is to put them together into one PDF and get a cover image made. This should be the easy part. I haven't been involved with the anthology since appointing the selection committee, because at that point it looked like everything was set and running smoothly. What's going on people?Loremaster wrote:Well then he needs to do it.

The formatting of the manuscript is fairly simple. Cafepress has a template available for download that you can paste in your doc and it will be mostly resized and the pages formatted to fit. After that there is some cleanup work that needs to be done but its not too involved. What we need from somebody is cover, side binding and back cover art.

Your understanding is appreciated, VS and Avatar. I'm not even sure he can receive email right now.
I have the directions to the layout template, now it's just a matter of finding a time when I'm rested enough to learn how to use it. Oh, and the time to do the work.

Oh most definately. A roof over one's head and food on the table are very important things.Avatar wrote:Well said Vs.

Hey, I just found a sign showing when the anthology would be done!
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion
I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
a fate I don't deserve.
