It is all about personal asks @Charles Moore  this is a crowdfunding platform, you have to go out and ask people to donate to your project, in this case your project is a book. You have to switch your pitch from "buy my book" to "support me" that is how you get your friends, family and acquaintances to pre-order. This is about you so when you hear from your cousin "I don’t really read" (who does these days) you can answer "I’m not asking you to read the book, I am asking you to help me become a published author" You need a special kind of personality to do this successfully and you need to be willing to get over your fear or whatever it is that stops you from asking people, following up with people and asking again. Read Tal’s advice, her run a great campaign.

    C. Brennecke liked an update for The Knightmares
    Hello again my Knightmares!

    First off, many thanks to all those people who have bought over the last few days! I appreciate each and every pre-order! Your support means the world to me. 

    With all the rushing about this past weekend, I totally lost sight of the fact that another 30 pre-orders were made, thus unlocking a new chapter.

    I decided to do something a little different this time. Instead of releasing the next sequential chapter I have decided to release one of the many stories within the story. This is another interstitial chapter, part one of two, focusing on the character of Father Monaco and his time as a Military Chaplain in Vietnam in 1973. 


    Check it out listed in my sample chapters on my inkshares page, here.

    I’ll release part two of his story when we reach 180 pre-orders. 

    With that said, for all those people who have already bought, don’t forget to claim your FREE tshirt by getting two new people to pre-order! 


    And for those of you interested in some other projects here on Inkshares, please check out:

    WRESTLETOWN by Christopher Irvin. It looks like a fun read for those of you who appreciate WWE and over the top action:

    Also check out Deus Hex Machina by Amanda Orneck. It’s cyber-punk at it’s best, where computers and technology are religion. I’m super intrigued and I hope you are too:

        C. Brennecke liked an update for Monkey Business

        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
