Thanks! Book 2 is already at least half done. But yes, an advance would be wonderful. Sadly, the book industry is much like the micro industry. No one wants to pay for them.

But I wrote it for me and if it sells, thats an added bonus.

You mean the self published book publishing industry 

There are plenty of publishers providing advances out there

Finding one that will do your book within a year is the challenge. And plenty of the small press publishers do not provide advances, and some of the big ones ask too much from the author. So I went self publish. I spent 6 months researching and contacting publishers, agents, and industry experts.

Maybe Book 2 will get picked up. My editor said it was better than hunger games, but then that's my editor.
