Dave Barrett liked an update for She Is the End
Hello, followers new and old!

Thank you, everyone who made Friday a really good day. It was amazing! I appreciate all of the support so much, whether through pre-orders or follows or encouragement. 

Are you wondering how the reading at Mugshots on Friday went? It was GREAT! There were around 20 people there, which was a small enough crowd for me to talk to everyone there. I realized that my trivia questions were way too hard (I thought they'd be too easy!). Renee won even though she could only remember three characters from Firefly. Congrats, Renee!



Special thanks to Leah (seen above right, interviewing me), who is a shining star, and Ben Saine, who directs a pretty awesome cafe.

NEXT UP:

I'll be reading at the MN Speculative Fiction Writers 2015 Local Author Showcase on Nov 8th at the Acadia Cafe! I only get seven minutes, so I'd better make it good.

The event starts at 3pm and you are all (obviously) invited! I expect all the Canadians to carpool.

Finally, here's a progress snapshot of that Ladies of Scifi poster I'm drawing as a prize for my coloring contest:


I'm going to add Leia and another surprise foundational woman of scifi, just because apparently I can't stop! Alex wants to do some digital color over the pencil; we'll see what we can come up with.

Thanks again, new readers/followers. I'm glad you're here!

:)

    Hello travellers!

    Welcome to first ever update (from this reality) to all of you fantastic supporters. I love each and every one of you very much. You are, each and every one of you, my favorite person in the world...

    I have four things to say and share with you all.

    Firstly, apparently, if you've not purchased a pre-order copy of the book then today may be the last day it's on offer for $9.99 as the funding model on Inkshares.com is changing tomorrow. I'm not saying buy one now, I'm just saying things may be different tomorrow.

    Secondly, I've been working on a website for ANALOG OWL where you can see pretty much what is on Inkshares.com, but from a different view. If you'd like to see it please feel free to take a look at www.owlchronicles.com, if you have a moment or two as I will be launching it soon (it's there, but not completed yet).

    Thirdly, as you may be aware (if you read my boilerplate yet) that's even though I have attempted novels before I have yet to complete one. I believe this may be the exception that smashes the rule and kicks it out of the field of play.  Especially now I have all you lovely lovely readers and backers boosting me on.

    Lastly, for now, I will let you into a little secret or two (as you are my favorites) I have three books planned for the OWL CHRONICLES. The next book is called DIGITAL OWL. 


    The third book will be called... ah, you'll have to keep tuned for that kind of secret.

    So, farewell for now my fellow travellers. Remember that when you come to branch in your roads, chose wisely, for we are destined to remain on the paths we step onto... for now anyway.

    Cheerio...

    James

    PS: I have scoped out 30 chapters so far and now I've finished procrastinating with the website build I am back to writing the book.

      Dave Barrett recommended Monkey Business
      Hey folks! Monkey Business is just a spitting distance away from 250 sales and the light edit option. Give it a look see - it looks hysterical!
      Monkey Business
      Robinson Crusoe meets Dumb and Dumber in this hilarious tale of two friends trying to escape a tropical island.
      Dave Barrett commented on Monkey Business
      Agreed with Joseph and Michael.  If you're going to do the self publishing thing, why not take advantage of the light edit?  On the down side you give up the revenues for those 250 orders.  On the up side, You get the physical book.  And that's pretty damn cool.

          New cover! Again! I changed the ground-level details to more closely reflect the book. What do you think?
