Matthew Isaac Sobin's latest update for The Last Machine in the Solar System

Dec 14, 2015

Good morning - or afternoon to some of you!

Really a splendid morning... We have reached 40 readers (41 to be exact), and that's fantastic. You know what they say... slow and steady wins the race, or maybe in this case, finishes second?? We'd take that too.

It also means we will be having another raffle. This time for an illustrated and framed copy of my poem "Bound in Earth." I will circle back with the results for that lucky person as soon as I manage to cut up 40 little pieces of paper and find a baseball hat to stick them in.

Two more quick points: 

First, as a reminder, I am encouraging those fence sitters to hop on down and join the fun. At the moment we have 92 followers who are receiving this update, and only 41 readers. I'm a writer not a mathematician, but I believe that leaves in excess of 50 followers who can still pre-order and bump us up the standings. The next ten pre-orders from existing followers will all receive a signed piece of cover art for The Last Machine! So please do come off that high fence!

Lastly, only 9 readers away from the special 50th reader raffle for Rudyard Kipling's Mine Own People. The book is super old. Like older than anybody on the planet (well, maybe). That's next...

Thanks again for all the amazing support!
