Hello early-adopters!
We’re approaching two whole months since Practical Applications for Multiverse Theory left the literary uterus and was birthed out into the scary world of bookselling.
We hope that you’ve been enjoying the book, or at the very least enjoying telling people that you know someone who wrote a book, or enjoying having another item cluttering up that desk that you were totally going to use to help you get organized but is now covering in loads of junk mail and assorted novelty items.
If you have read the book, don’t forget to leave reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. Exposure and sales are directly affected by the number of reviews a book receives.
Just as important, if you enjoyed the book, please tell a friend. Tell two friends. If you have more than two friends (WE GET IT YOU’RE REAL POPULAR), tell all of them.
And now they can get a digital copy of the book for even less. The ebook price for #multiversebook is now just $4.99! That’s less than five dollars!
We promise we’re working on the next book in the series,
Nick & Noa
Lots of great news!
The Seventh Aspect is now an Inkshares staff pick! It’s also received a recommendation from none other than our fearless leader, and Inkshares CEO Jeremy Thomas! (I certainly didn’t see that one coming). To say I am humbled and grateful is an understatement.
I’d just finished another big round of edits on the posted chapters right before he sent his recommendation. So keeping your drafts updated and improved pays, folks. You never know who is lurking.
In honor of this fun occasion:
1. I have a long professional history in showbiz, so I’m a sucker for dream casts. I’ve decided to share my dream cast for the main characters in chapters 1 and 2. Here’s the kicker: I’m not posting their character names. So that means you’ll have to read to figure out who’s who.
2. There’s a reference to an infamous 70’s horror film in chapter 1. Our main extraterrestrial character has a thing for human sci-fi and horror media. So bonus points if you catch it and know what it is. It’s funny, I promise. Similar funky references will be sprinkled throughout the story.
Two more chapters are on the way. You’ll get to meet more of our alien researchers, and maybe even travel to another dimension. Mmmm....dimensions....
As always, if you like what you read, please leave a comment or review. Thanks so much again for your interest. It means a lot.
Stay tuned…

Quick Pilot X Update
So things are progressing well and the best thing of all is we have an official publication date!
Pilot X is set to come out March 14, 2017.
Your early support and patience will definitely be rewarded.
I met with the fine folks at Girl Friday Productions last week to talk over the plan and we’re in the process of settling on cover art. Very excited. The visual style will be a big departure from my video, I promise, Heh.
THE EDIT!
Got the first edit back from Clete with some excellent suggestions. Very excited that one of the suggestions was not "hmm, you should start over." So that’s positive!
Actually the book is in better shape than I expected with some areas that need clarification and mostly concentrating on keeping it friendly to new readers. So I’m 100% confident this is going to be a better book than it was before. I sent my first pass back to Clete yesterday.
RANDOM BOOK FACT
If you were at a party on Alenda you might find yourself eating a creamed farragut pastry and a bottle of Kreistner’s Malt .
Thanks again for your belief in and support for this book! I wish it was March already.

It’s the last day to help fund Deus Hex Machina, and I’m in a giving mood.
EVERY order today will get a gift from me: a graphic novel short story I wrote as part of the compilation Winter’s Eye (available on Amazon here).
So how can you, the book supporter who’s already ordered help? Please get ask one friend to order to the book today!
Yes I know it’s an impossible task, but I have visions of full funding today. Of waking up to 750 orders. That’s only 450. NBD. Totally doable. Do I *know* 450 people? NOPE. Aye, there’s the rub.
Love to all you crazy book lovers. You’re the reason this book is a thing.
See you on the other side of funding
Hey All,
PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS NOT A BOOK FOR KIDS. IT CONTAINS FREQUENT USE OF PROFANITIES, MILD DRUG USE, MODERATE SEX SCENES AND ONE VERY NAUGHTY MONKEY!
Following a massive surge of activity yesterday, the book is now only 13 pre-orders away from breaking back into the top 3 in the Nerdist competition!
Tantalus Depths is only 6 away from 300 pre-orders! As I’ve said, once I reach that number, I’m going to make my original short story, The Perspecive Machine, temporarily free for download to all, as a way to say thanks.
Let’s hit that goal asap, so I can give you all this thank you gift :)
