Hey everyone:
Thank you all again for your support. It's always great to see new followers and readers.
A new chapter is now up: the last chapter of Part Two.
Please let me know what you think. You can leave comments on Inkshares, or email me directly.
Thanks again!

The latest chapter from Son of Ivan is up! What happens to Richard after falling through the second portal? It's pretty strange, let me tell you.
Pre-orders for Son of Ivan have stalled a bit, but that's OK. I'm glad to be able to share my work with people. I hope you're enjoying it so far.
I'm going to continue to pitch my book on Inkshares and make recommendations. And I encourage you to tell your friends, co-workers, acquaintances, strangers and bitter enemies about Inkshares. It's a great way to help burgeoning authors get noticed, perhaps even published. Those of us in the book business know that traditional routes toward publishing are drying up, or are reserved for established names, so it's great that there are other alternatives, other venues. And who knows, by perusing Inkshares you may be one of the first to discover the next George RR Martin or Suzanne Collins (I'm not implying that Son of Ivan is in the same league, but that's not for me to judge). So, anyway, read on!
(And for those of you wondering if Son of Ivan will ever have a cover--I'm working on it.)

Another chapter is up! Again, thank you for all of your support.
Hello again. Chapter IV is posted! Please leave your comments (even the snarky ones--bring it on). And as always, thanks for your support.
Hello everyone:
Sorry for the mix-up in the chapter postings. I had posted Chapter II before Chapter I. Yeesh. Anyway, that has been fixed, and Chapter III is up as well. So happy reading!
And as always, thank you for your support. And please, please spread the word--not just for my book, but for all of the great new writing and up-and-coming talent on Inkshares.
Also, if anyone out there has advice for how I can go about getting a decent cover designed for Son of Ivan, let me know.
Best,
M.
Hello everyone:
New chapter! New chapter! Yes, a new chapter has been uploaded. Check it out.
Thank you for your support so far. The response has been fantastic. I hope you're enjoying the book! Onward.

Hello all:
The first chapter of Part Three is posted! Time for our non-hero Richard to find a new job. It does not start off well. ("Non-hero" is a term I just made up. It refers to a character who is the ostensible hero of the tale yet has not done anything remotely heroic as of yet.)
Enjoy.
And thanks for the support!
Oh, one more thing: Congratulations to the finalists in the Nerdist contest. You've all penned top-notch novels deserving of a wide readership. Good luck! And an extra shout out to everyone (including myself, I suppose) who participated. I raise a goblet of grog to all of you. Keep at it!
Best,
M.
