Michael Haase liked an update for Transilience

This is it. The final day.

I’d like to thank everyone who supported Transilience.

This campaign has afforded me an opportunity to meet some very generous souls. Not only with their money. But their time. And their advice.

I have learned a great deal over the past three months. About myself. About my novel. About how to move forward.

In the short term, the plan is to try and hoodwink an agency or a publisher into picking up Transilience. In the long term, I will always keep my options open. I will continue to lurk on this site. Perhaps another contest will come along for which Transilience is ideally suited.

I have no idea what life on Inkshares is like after a campaign, but I am fairly confident I can keep Transilience up here as a draft. 

I will also devote more time to my blog, Skid Rogue Haven. If you have enjoyed my updates here, perhaps you will enjoy whatever it is that appears on the pages of that site. :)

Thank you again, one and all. Due to the nature of our collective acquaintances, I can only ever use words to describe my gratitude, and I fear words alone can not do the feeling justice. You are all wonderful people.

Cheers,

Kev

    Michael Haase commented on Judith
    Mr. Budryk, I am definitely pre-ordering "Judith." If you would like, email me a referral code to madmrbutler at gmail.com so you get some credits to support other works on here. I would recommend my book, if I may be so bold...
    No matter what, I find "Judith" to be an extremely promising and potentially powerful work of fiction. I wish you the best with this novel.

      Michael Haase sent an update for The Madness of Mr. Butler

      First things first: THANK YOU!!! I’m overwhelmed by the love and support. As it is already March 6th, I have high hopes for holding my position in the top three and achieving one of my dreams. I owe a debt of gratitude to each and every one of you who has purchased Mr. Butler basically on a whim, as you have purchased a book that hasn’t been published yet, nor is there an absolute promise yet that it will be...

      ...but you put your faith in my work. Thank you for that. I promise not to disappoint. 

      In the meantime, I will continue to post first-draft versions of the chapters and diary entries for your perusal and enjoyment, and they are all open to critique. Please let me know what you think. And if you’re a fellow author, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We can all help each other on here. I will admit that some of my time will be limited in this home-stretch of the contest, but I still want to connect and network. Let me know if you have a book you believe in that I just haven’t seen. I’m here as a reader, too, so push your books my way! Email me for whatever you need at madmrbutler@gmail.com.

      Until then, Chapter 7 is up and you can read it here. There is also a new entry in Mr. Butler’s diary, which you can read here.

      Have a great day, everybody. Don’t hesitate to reach out. 

      -Michael
