Goblins Can't Dance, But They Can Print Paperbacks

he called back into his mind all the wondrous things he had read about the world; about kobolds and snakes, knights and beasts, dragons and cities made of gold. He recalled the adventures of the young wizard Agrathoth; Thanathin the Silent; Mirebeth the Dragontamer; Alena of Phingog Mor; Sir Thethin, who saved the children of Griphendia from the ravages of war... All these heroes and heroines of legends were goblins, just like he. They all had accomplished things that he could accomplish as well. Maybe, one day, someone would read about Pondorath of Thobog as well.

Belated surprise! Exciting news! Gophirith of the Mountains is out in print form, a tiny bit prior to the ebook, as I have hinted at in the past! It's on Lulu here! Yes, it's finally out! (Pre-orderers of the eBook will still need to wait a bit - sorry about that!) If you don't know what it is yet (though if you have been following my postings here and elsewhere, you should), here's the book's info page on Pelsatia's home! I'm happy with how it turned out, which is very rare for me, and I'm really excited to finally have this published.

I made my first one-piece book cover for this; if it prints right, which I do hope it will, it should look really neat with the custom spine and all. The illustrations are all in here as well, though they're in greyscale as the costs of printing on-demand in full colour are astronomical! It was a pain to format, and golly, am I glad it's finally out!

Well, what are you waiting for? ;3 Check it out on Lulu, there's a reading sample! If you have a Goodreads account, you will also be able to add it there now :3
