Oh snap, yeah I guess I might. You can email me [email protected].

WatcherDM (He/Him) @watcherdm.com · 2d

Well shoot it over. I do a lot of editing and proof reading. Happy to chip in.

WatcherDM (He/Him) @watcherdm.com · 2d

Haha, I feel it. Have you gotten any outside feedback in your process?

WatcherDM (He/Him) @watcherdm.com · 2d

You would be surprised. I often print these pdfs for use at the table. Also if you want another set of eyes or any feedback, shoot me a message. Always happy to check out the work of a new creator in the space.

WatcherDM (He/Him) @watcherdm.com · 2d

It shouldn’t, but just edit locally and get ready for a final release. Let them review the copy you submitted, once it is live push the final final final version you’ve got. Again, assuming this is a digital release. Updating the files for a print on demand release does reset the clock.

WatcherDM (He/Him) @watcherdm.com · 2d

Yeah tbh, these things can always use another pass. Surely there is some dangling paragraph break or misspelled word. I don’t think I have ever released anything that I didn’t end up needing to fix. Also, once it’s approved you can just upload new versions of it without issue.

WatcherDM (He/Him) @watcherdm.com · 2d

Tends to be around a week at most. I assume you are talking about your first time digital approval. You only have to do that a few times before they let you publish new stuff without approval. POD premedia and print proofs do take a while though.

What is capitalism is just a means of redistributing depression?
