Evening Ladies and Gents!
Just wanted to thank you all for your support of my debut novel After the Ruin! I have 54 more days to reach my goal so I'm reaching out to the 24 most important people I know - you the reader - to help me get the word out. Share the link to your Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts, or send homing pigeons with notes tied to their ankles to your friends and family. Every pre-order matters.
As far as the novel goes, I'm plugging away steadily, delving deeper and deeper into the world of Lykoreia. There's loss and love, intrigue and surprise in every turn. If you want to know more, get me 26 more readers and I'll post Chapter 2!
Have a great evening and I'll talk to you soon!
Night Night,
Suraya
Hey, I had a cool idea... Well, at least I think it is! So, since I'm an ex-film student, I thought it'd be kind of cool to add Reap written as a screenplay in the book. As like "bonus content," or something because it started out as a screenplay (I have various drafts still in said format). It'll make the book a little thicker too, especially once I start adding a few illustrations.
Can anyone tell that I'm excited? 'Cause I am!
Dear Friends we reached 750 orders!
Thanks to all of you who have supported me, to those of you who have ordered more than one copy of the book and to those of you who have shared the link with your friends and family.
This means The Catcher’s Trap will become a published book!
I don’t want to be sappy, but I have to (start playing Sarah McLachlan song) The young immigrant who came to this country 15 years ago, barely speaking English but full of hopes and dreams, never thought this dream would come true; thanks to all of you it has.
So now we keep pushing. 43 days to go and 250 more books to sell.
If you have not pre-order a copy of The Catcher’s Trap, please do. If you have already, please spread the word; hitting 1000 copies will be hard!
thanks
Update #4: Oct 5, 2015
Good Morning everyone! The Nerdist contest is now over, and although there are 42 days (the answer to life, the universe, and everything) left on the TIMESPLICE Inkshares campaign I can say with reasonable certainty that it won't make its goal.
Nevertheless! The funding goal was never something that I reasonably expected to meet, nor is it the reason I am writing this book. I am writing this book because it is something I want to do, and it is something that I want to share.
So this update is to let you know that I will keep doing that. You can continue to follow my updates to TIMESPLICE at http://www.garretrempel.com/ where Chapter 2 has now been posted in its entirety and next Monday the first parts of Chapter 3 will start going live. And also here at Inkshares, as long as this project is active I will continue to post updates. Chapter 4 will be coming to you in 2 weeks time (on Oct 19th) as I am just finishing it up and I want to discuss it with my editor first.
I hope you all have a great week, and thanks for reading!
