I recently realized that through all the hell and hubbub of Senior Year, I neglected to mention that the long-promised second edition of The Valley Chronicles was recently released, rendering the first edition out of print! I’ll explain exactly what that means below.
What’s a ‘Second Edition’?
A Second Edition is a revised version of a previously published story, often touched up due to errors or improvements in the author’s style.
What Changed?
Mostly, I fixed punctuation and grammar errors. A few smaller details shifted, however, and some short passages were rewritten. I also removed insects from the Valley. It made my head hurt too much.
Can I Still Buy the First Edition?
Not for much longer. I have… what, five or six, maybe, left? And then it’s on to the new edition. So if you’re into that whole “Original” thing, buy it from me now.
How Do I Tell the Difference?
It’s simple- first editions have gray text on the spine while newer ones have white text. This is an easy distinguishing change I made so the book would match Quest better.
That’s the gist of it! You can buy the second edition from Amazon, Lulu, Barnes & Noble, or Apple iBooks, and the first edition is still available for a limited time from me!
