Hey
I am participating an a IASFA Book Bundle from June 14 - July 4th. In it there will be 19 books being sold for $7.99

No one knows what waits for us beyond the void of interstellar space. Fantastic landscapes and wondrous peoples. Doing. Living. Just like us but completely different.

Explore those realms with us, places where multiple dimensions exist simultaneously and travel between them takes only a well-disciplined mind. The search for more war by mercenary armies. And so much more...

Hi Everyone,

As I am approaching the 1 year mark from starting the pre-orders I wanted to share some details, news, and a special deal.

First, the response to The One has be wonderful. In less than a year 385 copies have been purchased (combined e-books and paperbacks). 

I have presented at my high school, and the students were great. Just this week I spoke again with one of the media arts classes. They had great questions and insights. As a class project, they will be preparing book trailers of my novel. The winning team will each get an autographed copy.

Special anniversary offer

I have put my e-book on sale for $0.99 as part of the SFF Mega 99c Promo (18 - 24 February) on Amazon. 

You can find the full deal at http://sffbookbonanza.com/99c-books/

Also Purple Toga, my publisher, has put up several e-books for sale during the same promotion period.

So, thank you all for your support this has been a thrilling year and there will be more fun to come.

Eric


Hi everyone, thank you for all the support. 

This month The One: A Cruise Through the Solar System hit a new milestone. Its first award.

 

I thank all of those of you that voted for it, this is a wonderful feeling.

Other news:
I am well on the way of writing book two, and have the first 3 chapters of the first draft finished. I will update with snippets and quotes in a future update. For now all I can say is that I am working on the court scenes for the hijackers. (Did you know that hijacking and piracy fall under different jurisdictions and rules? I didn’t when I wrote book one.)

Back in early October I did a few public outings around The One. First I went back to my old high school and gave four lectures to seniors about being an author and world building. The talks were well received, and some of the students are sure to become authors in the future (you could see them sitting on the edge of their seats and asking all sorts of questions). The media studies teacher will be having her class do a project in January to make a book trailer for The One, the winning team will get autographed copies of it. So expect to see that video by March.

And to close I would like to share something that was told to me, and that every author loves to hear, "I have read your book several times and keep finding new things to like."

So thank you all again for your support.
Eric

PS. I will be "going wide" in the next few weeks. So The One should be available at regular book stores not just ones that work with Amazon. I will share links when I have them.
