Well, I’m currently at the DC United game, but I just couldn’t wait to tell everyone that my interview is live on examiner.com at
http://www.examiner.com/article/inkshares-writer-stephen-carignan-talks-about-his-book-s-campaign
This is an amazing opportunity for more exposure so a huge thank you to Alicia!
As far as the pre-orders go, we are still crushing it above the line at 121 orders. I really think my suggestion about cornering people on the street is working and I’ve even gone to a new length of matching with people on Tinder and telling them to buy my book, just check my facebook, I can’t show you from my phone.
Thanks to the support so far. Keep sharing, recommending, and ordering (since the copies are signed, get one for someone you don’t like and I’ll write whatever you want).
Sweet dreams,
Stephen
P.S. let’s go United!
In my Sunday update I alluded to something in the works involving me that I was really excited about, but I didn’t give specifics. Well, now that the new Nerdist contest has begun and the unveil has happened I feel the time is right to tell you about it.
I have a feeling more than a few of you have already seen this particular entry into the contest - Too Many Controllers: An Anthology. Well, that was my news. In case you haven’t checked it out yet, I am one of the 15 authors contributing a short story to the collection. I’ve mentioned before that science fiction was one of my first loves, and a major reason I’m so excited about this collection is that I’m finally going to get a chance to show that love to you all.
That’s all I’m really going to say about the project here, since when you clicked that follow button you were doing so for Exile, Magus. If you’re interested in keeping up to date with what the 15 of us are doing(myself, Andre Brun, Elayna Mae Darcy, J.F. Dubeau, Brian Guthrie, Paul Inman, Richard Heinz, Ricardo Henriquez, Christopher Huang, Tal M. Klein, Billy O’Keefe, Amanda Orneck, Elan Samuel, Matthew Isaac Sobin, and Jamison Stone), then go follow Too Many Controllers so you can stay up to date as we release more details of the stories contained within.
In case you’re worried that this may delay progress on a campaign relaunch for Exile, Magus, don’t be. Magus is fully written and just really waiting on a proper developmental edit and publisher. Currently I’m waiting on my work schedule to slow down enough to have time to properly promote it before I start another campaign. I’ll have more on that topic when that time is closer, though.
For now I’ll just thank you all for your time, and hope you enjoy yourselves and your reading!
