    Book Updates: Keeping Ball Pythons PREVIEW PAGES!
    12 pages and the front cover work for Keeping Ball Pythons! The independent study I've been working on for the last few months.

    Page order and exact content aren't guaranteed, as I'm doing the final editing now, but this is pretty close. 99% if the snakes pictured are owned by Adam and Kelly at 8ball pythons (with my girl making appearances in stuff I didnt shoot at Adams).

    Watermarks for obvious reasons. The next update will be when the book is actually finished! Pages are unreadable on purpose, so dont fret if you cant read them.

    From what I can see, the design and layout look respectable. I can't say much more than that until we get to see something more detailed.

    if you were canadian i could get it published through the publisher my dads magazine is published with. too bad, i might have been able to make the search easier.

    I don't know anything about lulu, but I worked in prepress for a commercial printing company for the last 8 years and they owe me, so if you want any help with the layout for print production, or are looking for a place to do the printing let me know.

    Ill definitely be posting when its completed. The editing is scheduled for this weekish, and i want to have a completed file by the end of the week (thursday is ideal, but i dont know if I can do that).

    I'm in the US so i'm not sure what my options are. I have multiple professors who have published books so I'll be talking to them.

    I'm debating posting a down loadable file. lulu does give that option and I'm giving it serious consideration. The book is meant to be viewed in a hard cover, physical option but not everyone will want to pay whatever its going to cost (lulu is inexpensive, but, the page count is over what I initially planned and as such the cost for the final product has gone up some).

    Thoughts? If i get enough response for a down loadable file I'll post one.
