Dreigiau in Paperback (Digital Camera Photo — sorry!)

I’ve mentioned on and off that I was working on self publishing Dreigiau in paperback form. Well, today I received my proof copy from Create Space — and it is AMAZING! I’m so thrilled with the quality of the print and of the service I’ve received while working to create this book. It has one of those ISBN book bar codes and everything… it’s the real deal!

I will be making some changes on the cover. Now that I have the book in hand, I can line things up a bit better.

I’ll be editing my PDF to use a smaller font to see if I can’t lower the word count some, which in turn, will lower the price. The price as it is set right now isn’t terrible, but isn’t great. So I’m going to see what I can do to make it cheaper.

I’m going to re-read through the paperback for one more full edit. So this might take some time. I love the layout — it all worked great! See some inside pictures below.

Visit Dreigiau’s publishing page here. The info on this page, particularly the price and the number of pages, is subject to change since I’m trying to find ways to make it a bit cheaper. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated!

Quick Update: Yes, I did change the font to a smaller size and it cut $2 off the price of the book. Much better! What you see on the page now is probably what will be — I don’t want to make the font any smaller!

I’ve completed ALL of the Character Biography page changes! There is new profile artwork for Zemi, Zeni, and Zento posted. Theme music midis have also been posted for JouKa, Zazo and Zeni’s profiles.

I’ve added a widget that shows a random character biography link in the Dreigiau page sidebar just for the fun of it.

I’ve also reworked all of Fan Art gallery layouts and updated some of the galleries with new artwork (mostly from the Sygnus Christmas Gift Calendar).

The entire Dreigiau website has a brand new layout template along with the newest WordPress updates. I’ve made a few tweaks on random pages around the site, such as in the Glossary. Let me know if you see anything that appears to be broken after the update.

I’ve completed the character biography page consolidation and the final revamps for the Character Biography section! There is new profile artwork for SoYa, Suzume, TsuYa and Zazo as well! Click the images below to view the full size art in my DA gallery!

Just a quick post to let folks know that Shimmer revamps are up and going again. I know I took a break from working on the pages, but I have to say it’s a very good thing that I did. You can read about the reasons why here.

And, of course, check out the newest remake page here.

Enjoy!

Since tomorrow’s page will mark the end of Chapter 42, I figured it was a good time to update our archives (as was requested not long ago). You should find a brand new section for Chapters 41 and above and all current chapters posted in the Archives section. Enjoy!
