Anthony Jones III's latest update for Scarlet

Aug 4, 2016

  Hello, rebels!

  Today is the 4th day of contest and I’m feeling pretty good this morning. Late last night I had got an email confirming my housing at my college, and boy, I’ve been waiting on it for years haha! I’m very thankful because getting an apartment would have put a heavy load on myself, messed up my update schedule because I would need a job offering plenty of hours, and it would take my attention away from writing. The good news doesn’t stop there though! I have an event to attend in a couple hours that will promote my books. I plan to speak in-front of a mixture of crowds about myself, my books, and my future goals. I want to lay it all out so that people know my passion and where I’m coming from. Also, I believe this is a good approach to put myself out there and get supporters in the door.

  I said that the next chapter would be up today, and I haven’t forgotten, dear readers. I’m expecting to have it up before I attend the event I’m going to, but in case things don’t go as planned, it’ll be in the evening. So, you can snuggle up in your sheets and read to your pleasure haha! Don’t forget to give the book a recommendation, or at least share it around if you really enjoy it, and it could be the simplest things like--my cover, story, characters, etc. Just let people know!

  There are two more things I want to speak about before I end this update. First, I want to give a big thanks to Kaytalin Platt for ordering last night, and for mentioning me in her recent update. I was encouraged by what she said to me and the fact that she’s another writer in the contest. Please, go follow her book called The Living God with me if it’s your type of story! Now, the last thing I want to mention is that with our current followers, we can blow past some of the contestants and get on the leaderboards. I’m aiming to get up there before the week is up, so please, for those who haven’t ordered just yet, consider pre-ordering within the new chapters I have to offer!

  Thank you for reading! o/

  From yours truly, A.J.III.
