I've read Breath of Fire and it's terrific. Fans of Tom Clancy are in for a treat with Jeff's book.

And yet on this same site we have this: "Bring Me the Head of Jar Jar Binks!"

At least my worthless posts are funny....sometimes. Well, at least they're in the right category.

GREAT NEWS and I'm not surprised to hear that publishers might do a hard copy version. I've read the ebook and the only complaint is that I'm finished and I want the NEXT BOOK! LOL Good going Jeff. FReepers are the best!

It is not enough that I succeed; my friends must fail as well. -- Gore Vidal

:o) In spite of that stirring sentiment -- one that I treasure -- I wish you great success, Jeff. :o)

And as a PROUD PocketPC owner and fanatic, I will be ordering and downloading the novel momentarily. I'm glad Jeff listened to me and sought out the PocketPC market for his novel.

PocketPC? Yes. 32mb RAM, 340mb Hard Drive, 133mhz, 320x240 (up to 640x480), 65,000 Colors, Stereo, etc. etc.

I've got every Word, Excel, Internet Explorer, Outlook, every game emulator known to man and the games to go with them, 8 CDs worth of MP3s, about 30 entire books, and the entire (I think I'm admitting to a crime here) Star Wars Episode 1-The Phantom Menace movie (yes - the entire film) in MPEG format. I ripped it myself from my own DVD that I bought with my own money.

I used to own a Palm (20mhz, 180x180, greyscale, piece of dung - and they have barely improved) PDA and I will never, ever go back after experiencing the power and capability of the PocketPC.

I read all of my books on the PocketPC (or listen to them with Audible.com digital audio books) and I'm thrilled to be able to read Jeff Head's novel.

Chris, thanks SO much for posting this here.

I've been super busy this afternoon and still am. Trying to get this manuscript ready and printed out on my slow HP 952 is taking time and eating up ink cartridges!

Doug at PocketPcPress has been phenominla! He read it, loved it and we're working on his company having the EBook publishing rights while he is getting me in contact with a several agents for print publication on a large scale.

In the mean time, I will personally have these first orders printed and filled either late next week or the week after. Ebooks will be on sale at my site, as will the printed books until a deal is inked and the books are actually available for sale through the other channel ... that should still be several weeks if everything goes well and we ink a deal. I'm not taking anything for granted though and am still forging ahead with my own efforts.

Again Chris, thanks! Without you and Joanief and all of the others (as mentioned on the acknowledgment page) ... I doubt the work would have gotten the kind of review or response it has.

I'll try and answer a few of the posts that are directed at me on this thread over the next few minutes and then will get back and answer them all later tonight.
