Well, don't. I lost. We lost. That's the bad news. The good news? I wrote a frickin' book!  While winning would've been a handy shortcut it was never the plan. So, congratulations to the winners who certainly worked as hard and deserve it as much as any of us down here in the word mines. I tip my sooted flashlight helmet that probably has a name and get back to work.

So what can you do kind follower/supporter/other interested party? Excellent question as always. Well, I'd suggest following ME instead of Bad Trip as I imagine they'll take down the page mid-November. And/or (let's just go with and) come on over to Bookface and follow Bad Trip there for updates and such.

And please accept my sincerest gratitudes to all of you who've supported me thus far. It's hard hunched over a keyboard squinting at words until they stop making sense to know what I'm even doing sometimes. And to see so many people rally for me or find this page by mystery internet ways to click 'Follow' blew my mind on a daily basis. To the point where the words Thank and You seem insufficient. Unfortunately they're the ones I've got. So, thank you.

Now I promise the next time I ask for your credit card information it will be to sell you an actual book not a maybe/possibly future book en potentia.
