Published two books, Abandonment to Divine Providence by de Caussade and On Christian Doctrine by Saint Augustine.

I made a quick animation on the Saint Augustine book below. I'm still working on my 3rd assignment.

I will start writing it next week probably on Monday or Tuesday, and will continue to work on it for about 5 days or so. It's due in 25th January 2018 but I want to start and finish it asap so I can have more free time before I start 1st Semester University in the end of February, or early March 2018.


Other than that not much happening, slept late last night working on Abandonment to Divine Providence, it's a very thick book about 325 pages thick and I put the cost at US$23.00 per book. I hope it's not too dear and people will still purchase it. I am a bit concerned because I cannot make it any much cheaper or I won't get any profit at all.

I sold 11 copies of Revelations of Divine Love and only got AUD$0.74. I increased it to US$16 and haven't gotten a sale yet. But it's still early days and it won't be in the Amazon for another couple of weeks. It takes, they say 6-8 weeks to go on live in the distribution channels, and I modified it and submitted it a couple of weeks ago. So have to wait till probably end of January to see any sales.

It's much cheaper to publish a book on CreateSpace but the only problem is that they do a validation check on each book and I have to provide the death year of both the authors and the translators as well as the location and year of its first publication. I usually have trouble locating the translator's death year. Sometimes all I have are their initials or that they were a monk or a religious person, no other details. So I decided to publish it through Lulu plus, I also prayed and decided Lulu will be the best way forward provided I stick to the publication copyright rules.

I found this awesome website called Placeit which puts images of anything you can download onto images of screens. You can also choose which screens you want to put images of too, e.g. mac or desktop. Small image downloads are free but higher and bigger images cost.

I created the Gif using Gifmaker which is a free online tool.

Currently proof reading The Practice of the Love of Jesus Christ by St Alphonsus Liguori. I couldn't get anyone to proof read my books. LOL. I don't expect them too but it would have been nice.

Love.
