Hello Monkeys!
Guess what? I was lucky enough to be invited to the WriteBrain podcast last week
hosted by JF Dubeau and Paul Inman. They were both super nice and very fun to chat with. We talked about some of the books in the current Nerdist Video Game themed contest and they asked me some questions about Monkey Business and being published under the Quill Imprint of Inkshares.
So if you’re interested in listening to the podcast, check it out here!
And while you’re clicking around the old interwebs, please check out Paul’s book Ageless and JF’s books The Life Engineered and A God In The Shed!
And if that’s not enough for you, you can always zoom on over to Amazon and leave your mark on the Monkey Business Race to 100 Reviews! Currently stalled out at 25 reviews and just waiting for you to get in there and do your thing!
That’s all for now. Thanks everybody! - Landon
“Words to the heat of deeds too cold breath gives.” Just wanted to quickly give a shout-out to my homie Billy Shakespeare. That’s from his latest novel “Macbeth,” now trending on inkshares.
Please tell me you didn’t fall for that. Only a slice of the above is true; that quote is indeed from Macbeth. It is one of my all-time favorites. If I’m reading it right, it means that saying is not the same as doing. So in the spirit of DOING, I wanted to give an ACTUAL shout-out to two dear friends of mine who ARE DOING IT, whose books truly ARE trending on inkshares right now.
The books of Mr. Zachary Tyler Linville and Mr. Richard Heinz were mentioned on Publisher’s Weekly top anticipated books released in Fall 2016. THIS IS HUGE NEWS! I’ve personally had a few peeks into their stories and I can vouch for this praise. I’d say “these books will be great,” but the truth is, I already know they are. If you haven’t invested in a copy of them, what are you waiting for? (Saying “Publisher’s Weekly’s endorsement!” is an answer that doesn’t hold up any more, bub.)
There have been other, newer, projects that caught my eye on Inkshares also. If you can click a mouse button more than once, I’d highly recommend you do so HERE (“Destiny Imperfect”) and then HERE (“The Glorious Denial”), in no particular order. Read the chapters you find there. They’re good. Good enough to spend money on. I say so from experience.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a scene to write in which an owl fires cobalt-colored lightning bolts at a fox while he clambers up the side of a landmass hovering mid-air because of some distortions in his world’s magnetic field. Some weird, complicated, science-or-sorcery stuff in “The Animal in Man”, folks. In Billy’s spirit of DOING, I #AmWriting. Stay tuned.
