The Making of...Christ Formed in You: July 2010

Now that Christ Formed in You is making its way to the printer, head on over to this new site where we offer 22 excerpts from the book and a special bargain on pre-release pricing.

About this Blog

This blog features the book by Brian Hedges, Christ Formed in You, which was accepted for publication by Shepherd Press in the Fall of 2008 and is being edited by Kevin Meath.

Shepherd Press has been kind enough to allow Brian and I to start this blog as an experiment, one designed to take some of the mystery out of the publishing process. We want to take parts of the editing phase public, primarily to see if anyone, including ourselves, finds it interesting. What exactly happens during editing? Some people are aware it can often take a good while, but few people understand exactly why.

To help shed some light, every now and then Brian or I will post on the book's progress. Come look over our shoulders as we take the manuscript down that long road from pretty much done to completely done, and feel free to leave comments.

Order Early, Save Big

When in print, this book will probably retail for $12.95. As a reader of this blog, you have the opportunity to pre-order the book at significant savings.

In the far left column of this blog, you'll see a progress marker. This is the editor's rough gauge of how far along the manuscript is in the editorial process. The sooner you register your intent to purchase a copy of the book, the lower your price will be.

_ If you register before the progress marker rises above 30%, you will be able to reserve up to five copies of the book for $5.00 each.

_If you register when the marker is between 31% and 60%, you will be able to reserve up to five copies for $7.50 each.

_If you register when the marker is between 61% and 90% you will be able to reserve up to five copies for $9.00 each.

Click here to send an email indicating you would like to preorder up to five copies. You don't have to pay now. Shepherd Press will contact you when the book is about to be released, offering you the opportunity to make the purchases you requested here, at the prices indicated above, based on the date of your email.
