Well, it's finally happening. With all the proofreading complete, the first volume of The Lost Element is finally set for printing courtesy of , complete with illustrations.

While I am steadily taking the time to figure out exactly how to use 's printing services, I need to figure out exactly how I'm going to get these copies of Volume 1 printed. After discussing possible approaches with another writer on the site who has had his works printed, I've decided to run a down-payment campaign. If anyone wants a copy of The Lost Element's first volume, let me know and forward a $2 payment per copy to my account. Once the printed copies have been produced and shipped to me, I will accept the remainder of the payment per copy and mail each copy to everyone who has expressed a desire to own a physical copy of my story, please contact me immediately. The preorders will be closed at the end of July.

Furthermore, if anyone is going to say that it is illegal to do this, don't bother. This is an acceptable process and I will be making no real money of of these sales as I will have to personally pay for each copy. I will be deleting this "chapter at the end of July. You will need to make an account to speak to me in private, but the process is free and simple. No account means no book for you.
