I must say I'm rather impressed with how fast Smashwords is getting our books into the other stores.
Earlier this morning I received an email from Diesel saying Scribings 3 is now available there. I checked around and found the ebook at three other stores too:
Diesel Ebook Store
Barnes and Noble
Versent
Inktera
I'm still waiting for the paperback to show up at Amazon, and for the ebook to make it into iTunes, Sony Reader Store, and Kobo. I'll post those links once I have them.

Paperback for Scribings, Vol 3: Metamorphosis is now available
I ordered the proof copy last week and it arrived a few hours before our weekly meeting, which was a nice surprise for the other members. The proof was very nicely done, and the cover actually came out better than I was expecting. The glossy finish really helps the colors a lot!
The paperback can be ordered now from CreateSpace, here:
https://www.createspace.com/4328926
It should arrive at Amazon in the next five to seven days. I'll post a link when it's available there. The list price at both places is $8.99.

Scribings, Vol 3: Metamorphosis
We have been quiet for a while, but only because we've been very busy!
For the past few months, the Greater Portland Scribists have been diligently working on our third anthology, Scribings, Vol 3: Metamorphosis. We started the project in November, and have been meeting weekly since February.
Unfortunately, we've been spending so much time polishing our stories and artwork that we've sort of neglected doing things like teasing the cover art, or talking about our stories, or... well, just about everything else we usually do on this blog. But we take it as a good sign that even we can't stop reading and re-reading the stories in this volume.
To the right is the ebook cover art (click image for full version), which started as a group experiment in abstract photography and ended up being so damn pretty we just had to use it.
We can't keep this volume a secret much longer, since the targeted release date for this volume is this coming Tuesday, June 18th! This volume will also be available as a paperback, which should be in Amazon by the end of the month.
What can you expect from this new volume of Scribings?
