And... Now I'm Published

Officially self published author Nathan Glen McWherter

Check out here to see the book. It doesn't say it on that page but the book is also available for FREE download. So, to find the free download link just do a quick search for "Bones of a Nightingale" or "Nathan Glen McWherter" (however, if you search for "Nathan McWherter" you won't find me, but you'll find my dad. Weird) and it'll be one of the big blue (purple? I'm color blind) buttons right there.

So, IT'S DONE!

Check it out, of course I would prefer everyone to buy a printed copy, but I don't even have money right now to have my own, so I understand.

Bones of a Nightingale Cover Done

Well, it's done. Over. Almost.

The cover's done. Six months of me talking about it, waiting for it, scouring over my 21 poems and 2 prose making them perfect (kinda), and now...well I'm closer.

Here's the cover, photos and design by Niall McCarthy.

Well, I can't seem to get the picture much bigger. The back cover says:

"Poetry is like alcohol. Both are weapons in the desperate fight to escape the agonies and tortures of life. Both, when used create madmen, inescapable confusion, and unpredictable chaos. But where a drunkard's night ends, is where a poet's night begins—with throw up. In poetry though I don't get a hang over the next morning or a crazy night I wish I could forget or hours I wish I could remember. I just get relief. The drunks have all the fun though."

And the spine says:

"All good things rise from joy and happiness, but in many cases also from pain and suffering. I fear we shall never fully understand the extent to which the former comes in the later."

So, I love it. I think it's awesome. Exactly what I want. And if you, like Niall, don't understand the picture frame and polaroid, well then you'll just have to spend $6.36 and read it. It should be done within the next few days (this time I'm serious), I just have to scour over it a bit more, make sure its near perfect. So, soon. Yay.

Please, please, please, please leave a comment and tell me what you think. Thanks.
