    The hardcover edition proof copy turned out great - some text mistakes to fix, but no printing errors that aren't mine! Lulu can print a book to specifications! Yay!

    Seashell: getting closer to print!

    Here's where we are on the Seashell print book:
    83 pages all told, including front matter and a preface. 75 of them so far are story. Anticipating about 10-20 more pages to be finished. Almost there!
    Cover's done (for the hardcover edition dust-jacket, at least, will probably have to be redone for the paperback but whatever).

'Seashell' just made Twilight's Library! · 3:36am Jul 27th, 2014

I'm pretty super excited right now. You know how the Twilight's Library incoming folders unlocked for those few minutes about a week ago? Well, I submitted Seashell, and... OMG I got the ribbon today! It made the cut!

It was a wonderful surprise. Needless to say, this is a huge honor and I'm very grateful. I'm not even sure what to say other than this really made my day. :twilightsmile: It was also recommended for a feature on Twilight's Library, too, which just adds to the thrill.

Actual photo of me receiving the news:

A big Thank You to everyone who's read and provided feedback on Seashell. It's a really important story to me, and I'm just... Really, really happy right now. :raritystarry:

Dude, congrats! Like I've said numerous times, Seashell is an amazing piece of writing, and there's no doubt in my mind that it deserves a spot in Twilight's Library.

Heh, I just won a $10 wager...
Knew it was good enough for the library!

That is one story that truly deserves it.

Very happy for you! I need to get back to Seashells and finish reading.
