Tony Valdez liked an update for Monkey Business

Happy Belated Pubday to Monkey Business!

Monkey Business is done. Available for buying. Available for reading. Available for loving. 

I will do a much better update tomorrow but for now I just want to say thank you to everyone who has been kind enough to support this book. Thank you to Inkshares. Thank you to Girl Friday Productions. Thank you to everyone who is getting this update. You’re all the best.

I have signed all your preorder copies and they should be getting to you in about two weeks (maybe sooner!) I was unable to think of a unique quote to write in every single book but I was able to write something different in a lot of them. As a consequence some of you are going to get some pretty weird shit in your books. I hope it makes it a little more special. Here’s one of my favorites:

 

One of you (and I have no way of knowing who it will be) is getting an actual 4-leaf clover in your book. Because I found one that day and thought it would be a nice gesture. So whoever you are, enjoy that. I hope it brings you luck.

I’ll write again this week with a proper update. Thank you. Hugs and Kisses from me and all those hairy little foul-mouthed monkeys you’ve helped support.

- Landon

    Tony Valdez liked an update for Ageless

    So... this happened.

    That’s G.(LORIOUS) Derek Adams, author of ASTEROID MADE OF DRAGONS, and myself (left) at XCON World Comic Convention in Myrtle Beach this past weekend. We sold some books, had some fun, and saw some fantastic cosplay (see below). 

    There also may or may not have been a lightly attended panel about crowdfunding hosted by those two handsome devils above.

    Also...this happened.

      

    SOOO...FRIENDLY REMINDER - Please review AGELESS on Amazon and Goodreads

    And, AGELESS ebook has been lowered to $2.99 for some time now. Share it with people you love! Or people that you hate...just get the word out. 

    Thanks everyone! KEEP SCROLLING FOR SOME COSPLAY!

      Tony Valdez liked an update for It’s All Fun and Games

      Hi Everyone!

      Quick bit of exciting news - the file is off to the printer today.  There is no officially nothing to be done other than sit on my hands and wait for my babies to come back home.  The initial print run is going to be eight thousand copies.  So tell everyone you know to buy one too.  We need to move some inventory!

      I’m also sitting on another exciting piece of news just waiting for final confirmation - look for another update in the next several days.

      Cheers
      Dave

        Tony Valdez liked an update for To Live and Die in Avalon

        Hey, everyone!

        As promised, I have recorded a reading of an unreleased chapter of the novel (chapter 8 to be precise)! This was in lieu of an issue of the Avalon Chronicler, but rest assured, there will be a new one of those later this week. 

        You can find the reading here: https://youtu.be/W6asDxKMyCw

        There is a little bit of setup for the scene I read (which is actually the second half of the chapter). It is about eleven minutes of audio and has some nice character interactions and offers a glimpse at the wasteland that Earth has become (appropriately enough, the background music is from Fallout 3). 

        We are still a bit far off from Quill, so if you haven’t pre-ordered yet, please do so! Those of you who have, thank you again for the support, please share with your networks so we can get the word out! Hopefully, this helps by way of letting the work speak for itself!

        Toward the end of this week, I will make some revisions to the first draft then send it out to my beta readers, print out a copy for myself and then go into serious editing mode to work toward a refined second draft. It’s very exciting to see it come this far and to see where it’s headed!

        Thanks again everyone and please, feel free to reach out to me directly via direct message, Twitter, Facebook or email!

          2000 BOOKS!!!

          2000!

          The number two  with three zeros after it.

          This is amazing everyone. Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my cold, dead writer’s heart (where all your favorite characters are killed for my amusement).

          Such a monumental event deserves a monumental story...or at the very least...a stupid one. So here is the story of a stupid thing I recently did.

          In my third or fourth year of college working toward a theatre degree, I took a class called Career Prep for the Actor in which my teacher really encouraged me to be a writer (because...my acting skills were so good.) Toward the end of this class, she asked us all to say one goal we would like to achieve in our career: a role we’d like to play, starting our own theatre troupe, that sort of thing. When it came around to me I said that I would like to go into a bookstore [full disclosure: I said Borders. RIP], find my book on the shelf, and buy it. Everyone laughed. "If you write a book, you won’t need to buy a copy of it."

          I had to admit...they had a point. What I said was kind of stupid.

          STUPID LIKE A FOX!!!

             

          THAT’S RIGHT FORMER CLASSMATES! WHO’S STUPID NOW, HUH? WHO’S STUPID NOW? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
          (A: Still me)

          Thank you to the staff at Unabridged Bookstore here in Chicago for humoring the weird bald guy who wanted his picture taken at checkout.

          In other news:
            
          Our Fair City, the audio drama that I write for, had it’s Season 7 launch party this weekend. It was the biggest affair to date with a giant replica of the in-story Dr. Montgomery Moro Memorial Museum and Historical House. For more about the event, check out my blog post with pictures and links to the audio tour made specifically for the launch. Also, stay tuned to Our Fair City on iTunes as one of my episodes should be coming up pretty quick.

          And finally, as we pass the 2000 milestone, I can’t help but look forward to the next thousand books. Or hundred books. Or ten books. Look another person might want to buy my book, but the most likely way they’ll find out about it is by you spreading the word. And the easiest way to spread the word is to leave a review on Amazon. So if you haven’t composed a written review for the book yet, please, take a moment and do so. 
          Here I’ll even link you there through the magic of technology.


          Once more with feeling: everyone, THANK YOU.

            Readers,

            Hi, y’all. Sorry for the lengthy silence and no updates anywhere. I was on vacation last week with my family and was unable to get to my computer for an update. I also spent a surprisingly large amount of time eating, sleeping, and then eating some more. I’ve included a picture so you can see I’m telling the truth.

            Pictured: RH Webster on vacation

            The few orders that have been trickling in recently are so appreciated, you guys. It warms my cold, cynical heart to see your support. We have a few more months to go, but if we were to hit our 750 orders before then we’d be able to publish that much faster! I know you’re as excited as I am to see this little draft of mine become a published book that you can put on your bookshelf. Remember, tell your family, your friends, the barista who makes your coffee at Starbucks...everyone. Working together is the only way we can make this dream a reality!

            I’m working on the draft and my blog (www.rhwebster.wordpress.com) as much as I can right now, but I’m back to my real-life job this week too (everyone needs a paycheck and I’m not famous yet). In the meantime, thanks for your patience (and maybe think some happy vibes for my sanity).

            A thousand thanks to you all,

            - Webster
