It occurs to me that I have over 300 followers! Which is humbling that that many of you care about my book and have either ordered it, are thinking about ordering it, or are simply following along for the Inkshares ride (and it's a wild one, let me tell you!). I want to say, "Thanks!" I am truly blessed to have your support. To those of you lingering on the fence of pre-ordering (that's about 100 of you *ahem ahem* you know who you are) let me sway you with these emotional words delivered by Chewbacca:
EEEEEGhggghghhgEHEHGGHGHGHHEhghghghghGGHEhgghgghghEEEhhh!!!!!!!
I find these words still ring true. You know what to do...
We're making a comeback. Only 15 more readers (not orders) and we'll be in 10th place out of 274 contestants! That's incredible. Let's keep this steady pace going and we'll make up the difference in less than a week. Top Fivers, I'm coming for ya, so don't get too comfortable.
Hey faithful pre-order summoners! I've been quiet for the past couple days because I was attending PAX Prime (a big gaming convention out here in Seattle), and I was swamped with glorious fun. I filmed this video before I went MIA. For a brief moment on Friday, I was in the Top 10! I believe this can happen again, with your help, of course. Here's a quick update to let you know how things are going. We're still up near the top, but we have some ground to cover. Thanks for tuning in, and keep evangelizing for me.

Also, here's a pic of me and a creeper.
11 more new readers and I'll break into the Top 10...out of 250 entrants! Cavalry charge, HOOOOO! Tell your friends, spread the word, and if you haven't ordered yet, please do so sooner than later. Use this:

I've held 5th place for over a week now and there are only 1.5 days left in the contest! Keep spreading the word and sending your readerly friends my way and we'll nail this publishing contract and possible film adaptation. We're already there!
I am so thankful for every investment in my book. I hope you will view my dedication to my craft as an investment in you, especially when you're finally holding a hardcover edition of my book in your hands.
I'm happy that your generosity isn't something that can be bought. It's freely given. In the end, that will make for a sweeter, hard-earned victory, shared by you and I. Thanks guys!
