Mike Donald's latest update for LOUISIANA BLOOD - A Chandler Travis and Duke Lanoix mystery.

Apr 21, 2016

Hello all of my 220 slice and dicers...just a brief update. 

I’m at 234 pre-orders...so I only have a few days to scoop up the last 16 pre-orders to get over the Quill line.  So far I have nearly 100 of you entered into the $100 raffle...no that doesn’t mean one lucky winner will take home a $1.  One lucky winner will take home $100.  

Now simple maths dictates that if you pre-ordered more than one you will have double or more  chances of being picked.  But whatever you choose to throw your $10s at, I’d like to thank all of you for supporting me during the last three months. 

I’d especially like to give a big shout out to some of the many generous authors that have helped guide me through the treacherous waters of  crowd funding.  

Peter Ryan, the author of SYNC CITY, a great thriller and worth checking out.  Joni Dee, author of AND THE WOLF SHALL DWELL, a wonderful thriller, also Billy O’ Keefe author of  THESE ARE MY FRIENDS ON POLITICS a wickedly funny children’s book.  Christopher Huang’s MURDER AT THE VETERAN’S CLUB a lovely period detective novel and Kelsey Rae’s BEYOND THE CODE, an adventure in the fantasy genre ...

And last but not least the two great syndicates that helped raise my profile by picking me as their book of the month...THE IDIOSYNCRATICATE SYNDICATE  and the THRILLER NIGHT SYNDICATE check them out.  When I’m fully funded I will post a more effusive list of the wonderful people that have also helped me along the way.

Anyway, enough hyperbole...if you have some credits, or are feeling generous, why not throw a few dollars at the Louisiana Blood stagecoach and spur those horses over the Quill border.  Saddle up HERE!
