Hey superspies,

Chapter 3 may be up very soon for you all to peruse as I think it’s a great chapter to show I can write more than just action sequences (even though action scenes are a heck of a lot of fun to write). It’s told from Dr. Baxter’s perspective and how she’s coping with being in this strange new world. There’s also a bit of a tease about the overarching mystery of her cryogenic kidnapping as well. 

In the editing process I ended up expanding this particular chapter and moving some Penny centric stuff to the next chapter. Basically, Dr. B gets the spotlight and she deserves it. She’s our doorway in, the audience surrogate if you will, the companion to the...time lord? Wait, no that’s something else. Similar, but different. 

Please share, recommend, and if you haven’t bought a copy yet, get it while it’s hot! Or drop it like it’s hot. I don’t know, do something with the hot things.

Chapter 2 is now UP! YAY!

Dr. Anita Baxter awakes to find that human beings long abandoned Earth after it was razed by alien terrorists and Penny’s bedside manner is not exactly helping matters much. Imagine waking up on a spaceship to find that everything and everyone you ever knew no longer existed. Yeah, she doesn’t take it very well... 

Oh, and they also almost get blown to smithereens by the bad guys...because that’s what bad guys do. I read that in a book somewhere.

Hey hey everyone!

So I made a nice new pitch video for the project page where you get to see me speaking enthusiastically (and somewhat awkwardly) about this little book that I love so much. There’s even a post-credits zinger at the end (No, Sam Jackson doesn’t walk on camera and ask me to join a superhero team...yet). Please check that out and if you haven’t already, pre-order, won’t you? I will love you forever and not in an icky and inappropriate way. 

I’m also very close to finishing some freebies to send out to all those who pre-order. Unfortunately, they are not retro-future ray guns, as the government has a problem with people mailing out portable atomic weapons...who knew? But, more on what the freebies are once I get ’em finished. Soon soon soon. 

Thanks again for the support! Pre-order! Share! Rinse! Repeat!

Love (in a completely platonic way), 

Jason

Hello readers!

My book and I are being featured on thewarblerbooks.com! I encourage you all to check that out. Elan (the Warbler himself) had some very nice things to say about the book and I’m humbled to be featured alongside some other great entrants in the current Nerdist contest. 

I’m also going to be making a new pitch video so you can all see my smiling face talking enthusiastically about this book that I’m having a blast writing. On that note, the writing is going wonderfully, I’m revising and editing the heck out of the first half of the book and hope to have another sample chapter up very soon. 

Finally, for those of you on the fence that haven’t pre-ordered yet, perhaps reading some of my other work will help alleviate that trepidation? I have three short stories up on wattapd.com, so check those out. My profile is at wattpad.com/AtomicBoyWonder. 

Thanks for the support! Stay tuned for more fun stuff coming very soon!

Today is the first day of my fourth decade on the planet Earth and I thought it only fair to honor the person who made me possible...my mom!

She is also who I am dedicating my book to as she’s the first and greatest female superhero I ever knew.

I’ve also added character synopses to the project page, because I hear those are more effective than a story synopsis. I want everyone to get excited about these characters and the story they are going to tell, because really they are the ones driving the story. I’m just the guy getting it all down as it happens. 

Also! I will have some nifty business cards and postcards made that I’ll be posting all over the place and a cool little giveaway for everyone that pre-orders my book during the funding period. So, please stay tuned for that! Here’s a preview of the back of the business cards (the front will have the awesome cover art designed by my good close friend Coral Cashes):

PLEASE help this first time author get his first book published, spread the word and also support the other amazing authors on Inkshares! Let’s make some dreams come true!

Hey spies and superspies! The second half of Chapter 1 has been posted for you all to devour, completing a meaty opening to Penny’s space opera epic (mmm...delicious)! The entire novel has been comprehensively outlined and is progressing rather well, with some wonderful little changes and happy accidents coming out in the writing process (I love when that happens). Also, check out my rad promo vid, if you haven’t already and as always spread the word!  

Hey everyone! What a warm welcome on my first day on Inkshares! The book is coming along swimmingly* with Penny’s adventures coming closer to reality! I should have another writing sample up soon and am also working on a groovy promo video for my project page, so keep your eyes, antennae and/or optical receptors open for that! Also, updated the project page with direct links to my Twitter and Facebook author page, so hit those up, share and all that fun stuff. Thank you, I love you all! (especially you...no, you right there. Yeah, you). *DISCLAIMER: No part of the book was written while actually submerged in water (yet).
