All, thank you for the support. The artists working with me just completed new pictures from scenes in the novel. This Ana dodging a machete as an immortal slashes through the realms at her head.


 

. This is her counter attack. She breaks the blade and sever  the hand.

This is King Azazael of the former bejeweled Blue Topaz kingdom of Azazaeland, not Azazel as we know him today. This is him engaged in a judgement with the heavenly army.  After his fall from grace his name was shorten to Azazel. His wings are still attached here. Just not expanded, it wouldn’t be wise to expand your wings when there are people trying to rip them off.

Every week my marketing team do an analyze of how well the book in doing publicly by the number of sites visitations,  likes, dislikes, what geographic areas and what languages it has reached.  We started the marketing in May 2016 and so far it has reached over seventy nine countries and the titles can be found in over fourteen different languages. From their reports it has reach over 3.8 million people and isn’t even in print yet.  "Clash with the Immortals" has made over a  million Twitter impressions in one week.  We went to the public first because that is who will be buying the literary work. We went to John Q Public to see if they liked it. 

Some may say this is all well and good but that doesn’t translate into sales. I will agree, it doesn’t. But it lets me know it will be very well perceived when finally in print. I, now know that many more likes it than I did four months ago. 

Some may say those were only polite "likes". I beg to differ, let’s be frank, the public isn’t often very nice. If they hate something, they’ll not hesitate to tell you.

Yesterday, I was in a local chain supermarket and had been shopping there for five years and no one noticed me and certainly never let me cut in front of them.  I noticed several people seemed to had been watching me. Call me paranoid or whatever but I notice my surrounding. One lady took the incentive to ask me my name. I also asked, "Who wants to know?" But her smile was so friendly I didn’t. I told her and turned to the others and said. "I told you it was her!"

Having never signed anything for anyone other than a bank check, the experience of signing receipts and address books was a little intimidating for me. I did it right in the supermarket aisle among the canned vegetables. So officially I have had my first signing. It was all totally unplanned.

Had I known I would meet fans I would’ve made myself more presentable.

I had been looking for a motif or graffito that fit Ana BuFaye’s personality.  I think I found it.

All, thank you for the support. More items are being added to the prize list. But you can’t win one unless you participate. Things have been progressing well...but not as well I would like and not well enough to make it to press by Oct 1, unless each of you help. Give it the boost it needs. I understand you all are busy with your everyday lives and perhaps some with your own funding or project. But believe me, I understand it far more than for you have any idea for I spent six years driving over 1,200 miles every three month between my home state and where I was living at the time. I had not one, but two terminal ill people on my hand so I had to wait until a relative release me to go see about the other. So many who knew of my situation asked why didn’t I just put them both in the same house? Well, that was a legitimate question. But there was no chance of recovery for neither of them and they both wanted to be home, where they came from when they passed. So, I figured it was the least I could do for them.

So you see, I understand being busy. But still, I hope  find it in your heart to support this project. I spend fifteen years putting it all together. Much of it was written late at night in a hospital room when earned the stamina to stay up for days on the ends. That’s why letters are mostly written late at night.

I’m ready to input Chapter 3, the orders are pushing toward the big TWO Zero where another prize is awaiting the 20th person who orders. Please check out: https://www.inkshares.com/books/the-time-before-time--b1cf7d It’s a spin off of "Clash with the Immortals." It goes into depths explaining the lives of the immortals before their fall from grace and what caused their fall.

For those of you who have already contributed "Thank you."

Below is the next prize. It’s a Star Wars Collector’s box.

Ciao,

Hooray!!.We have just received our tenth order and with it comes this prize shall "Clash with the Immortals" go to Quill. I’m still ironing out the details of the which items to apply to which numeral order. But for the tenth order is Nikola’s astral vision bracelet made from the eye of an opponent who had the gift of astral vision.

Here is how the prizes giveaway works: If your order fall on one of the number listed for that prize you’ll receive the item allotted to that order number. If the books reach 250 orders and goes to Quill, So it’s important that we tell our friends to help so we all can win the prizes allotted to your order number.I chose this method so each person could decide which prize they won.  I like all of you so I couldn’t use the throw a name in a hat method, I decide to let you all chose which prize you win. 

As the order increase so will the value of the prizes.

Below is give you a general idea as to what I’m talking about. Those of you on Facebook is probably aware of a friend donating a nearly new Louis Vuitton Handbag if the orders reach the 1,000 mark. 

By the way, the woman doing the art work name is Ann Harden. She normally sell her work for thousands. If I’m not mistaken she  sold a piece last year for large sum. I’m grateful she agreed to work with me.

The thing about Bea or Queen Bea as other kids call her for her bossy ways. Is when she does that cutesy little mouth twist Ana knows something bad is about to come flying out her mouth. As with any child she tries to say her little snippets behind her mother’s back. But that’s hard to do when your mom is right there watching your every move but for a very good reason. Bea is no ordinary child. Her abilities and knowledge surpass that of a normal seven year old.  Even Azazael noticed and questioned Ana on Bea’s exceptional abilities.

There are many more, but I will enter them as the chapters are released. This one is of the couple on their honeymoon. When Azazael or Azazel is behaving as mogul Ashton Cargill and not the ancient terror of old. Ana never sees what a true terror he can be.

Hello all. The artist who agreed to help me with the illustrations brought over new ones today I wish to share with you. This is one is Bea, Ana’s seven year old daughter whom other kids call "Queen Bee."  As you perhaps figured out by now Bea isn’t exactly your average, everyday kid.

This is the couple on their honey moon. That’s constantly interrupted. No, not by Queen Bea but by their numerous enemies. The drawings are done by a friend who is helping out.

I thought I would address the question since it’s been asked twice; why is there a differences in the spelling of Azazael’s name.

Azazael- According to ancient texts this is his heavenly name when he was a heavenly prince and later became a king.

Azazel-The most commonly known spelling of the name is the name he was given after he fell from grace and later became a demon.

So throughout the series when he is going bad things he have flipped back into the Azazel of Old, mode.
