Hey, everyone! Just wanted to give you all an update real fast as to what’s going on with the book. Artum has fallen out of the top ten at this point, which means that now is crunch time to get it not only back in the top ten, but to the top of the top ten. If you’re following the novel but haven’t pre-ordered, please consider doing so. Share it, recommend it, tell friends/family/random strangers about it. Get the word out!
I’m doing my best to get the word spread as far as I can out here. I’ve made handouts, and I might be on the local news to talk about not only my book, but also how Inkshares helps authors out getting their books published, and is a great alternate platform from traditional publishing.
There are lots of exciting things going on apart from the book as well. We’ve just moved, so while I’m typing this update I’m surrounded by boxes and out-of-place furniture, and having to do all of that sadly impedes work towards getting Artum out there. But I shall return in full to the work shortly. And then, it’s full speed ahead towards winning this thing! Also recently I’ve been reading some classic cyberpunk novels, and I think it’s doing great things for my writing of Artum, stylistically. I’d forgotten some of the reasons I fell in love with that specific genre in the first place, and why I chose it as an influence for my book in the first place. Next up for reading I’ve got some classic space opera novels, to hopefully grab some more style to inject into Artum.
Thank you all so much for your support. I hope that together we are able to see Artum win this thing, and get this book which I know you’ll love into your hands.
