FINALLY!

Okay, it appears that it is finally moving into publishing.
I have a link, but it's not live yet. I need to stop watching this like a hawk and try and get some work done, but here's the link (which isn't working yet so try and be patient):

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07X3NFMQ2

I think that will be the correct link. Hopefully I'm not wrong and it's active soon.

Still no idea what's going on.

Okay, I have no idea what's going on with Amazon. It's been almost 36 hours and not only has the ebook not gone anywhere, the paperback was kicked out of process and I had to resubmit.

Complain to Amazon, that's about the only thing that might work. But probably only if about ten thousand or more of you do it. 
 
Come Thursday, if this is still going on, I guess I'll be forced to start looking for a new place to do business.

I have no idea when the book will go live

I guess I'm going to have to write a letter to Amazon. I called them up and the response was:
I Don't Know

Well okay, I paraphrased a bit. They said that it's just stuck in the queue and that there were a lot of books published this weekend (there are a lot of books published every weekend).

So it could be out ten minutes from now, it could be out three days from now. Something is screwed up at Amazon and they won't admit to it.

EDIT:

So, amazon called back and kicked it out of publishing and had me resubmit it. They say it will be live in a few hours.
Fingers crossed.

A quick update

Someone just reminded me that I hadn't posted here in like three weeks. With the exception of having to deal with some legal stuff and some house that pretty much ate up half a week, I've been working on getting #16 finished.

As of today the first draft is almost complete. I'm doing the first re-write now and I'll write the closing chapter after it's completed. Because I have to cut and paste a section, I'm holding off on the last chapter until after I move that. So depending on how things go, the book will probably go off to my editor on Tuesday. After that, my beta readers will get it.

I'll be at the Air Races around the 12th of next month. That'll be nice because I haven't been to Reno in a year, which is a bit long as up until the move we used to go there fairly often.

So that's where things are right now, and I thought I'd let you all know.
