THIS IS IT EVERYONE!

The last 7 DAYS OF MY CAMPAIGN!

No more extensions left, it’s all or nothing!

I would love to make Quill within the next seven days and I NEED your help! If you haven’t pre-ordered yet, please do so before time runs out! If you have already pre-ordered (THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU), spread the word to everyone you know and maybe consider picking up another copy (if you can). 

I have to tell you guys, throughout the revision process this book has blossomed far beyond my expectations into something I can really be proud to have my name on. Beyond the action, adventure and intrigue there are some themes about family, loss, friendship and defying expectations placed upon you because of your race, gender or background. I’ve seen my villain evolve beyond a two-dimensional, hand-wringing bad guy and my heroes struggle to find common ground with each other while they try and save humanity’s new home among the stars. 

I’ve also learned a hell of a lot about being not just a competent writer, but also an adventurous storyteller and the support from my Inkshares comrades has been a constant inspiration. 

PLEASE help me cross the finish line before the week is up! I promise you a book worth investing your time and money in and the eternal gratitude of this little, hopeful author. If anything, this entire experience has only further validated that this is what I was meant to do...tell stories. Regardless of the outcome, I will keep pressing forward and keep chasing the next story and the next and learn from every success and near-success (I prefer that term over "failure" don’t you?)

THANK YOU everyone, truly from the bottom of my heart!

    Landon Trine liked an update for The Madness of Mr. Butler

    Just a quick update to let you all know that I am still working quite hard on Mr. Butler. I enrolled in Camp NaNoWriMo for July and set a goal of writing 70,000 words for the book in 31 days...and I did it in 30:

    All 70,024 (and counting!) words were written for Butler. Every day I’m working to make this the best damn book I can make it. 

    Just thought you, my wonderful investors, my support system, and most importantly, my friends, should know that I am giving this project every single spare moment I have. I’m still aiming for a September manuscript submission. I will keep you updated!

    Thanks for hanging in there!

    Love to all.

    -Michael.

      Landon Trine liked an update for First on Mars

       Hi everyone!

      Firstly, a huge thank you for choosing to support me and “First on Mars.” I cannot thank you enough for ordering a copy (or even several copies!) and I hope you realize how much it means to me. Before I started, I wasn’t sure that anyone would like what I have to write, but I have been blown away by the amount of positive feedback and support I’m getting. Thank you!

      It’s people like you that make it all possible. What is a book without readers?

      I’m sending this out to you all to ask for one more thing so that this book can actually be edited and published and become something more…

      Please join me this Thursday, August 4th for “First on Mars Share-a-thon.” I’m going to post and tweet a message about “First on Mars” and then I’m asking you to retweet it, share it on facebook, recommend it on goodreads, and/or to your local reading club. If every one of you do this, I will be virtually guaranteed to reach Quill and you will get the best possible version of this book in your hands (or computer/Kindle)!

      Remember, here’s what supporters of “First on Mars” get:

      • An ebook and updates forever.
      • A chance to win a copy of “The Martian” (whichever version you prefer).
      • A signed paperback and mission patch if ordering a physical copy.
      • Support the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention to the tune of $250 (this is coming out of my own pocket, I get nothing for the first 250 orders).
      • My gratitude forever.

      There are only 33 days left in the funding campaign, so please help. Thanks!

      Here’s the link: https://www.facebook.com/events/175379712879833/

      Despite all of my emails, facebook posts, tweets, videos, and posting of fliers around town, very few people have actually even heard of “First on Mars.” If you doubt me, here are some video view numbers:

      This means more people have actually pre-ordered than have watched the latest book trailer (which is slightly longer than one minute).

      Here’s the link again: https://www.facebook.com/events/175379712879833/

      Thanks!

          Landon Trine liked an update for Tantalus Depths

          Story Update:
          Any fan or creator of good science fiction will tell you a ship is as much a character as a location. The same rings true for Tantalus Depths. It is with great pleasure that I present you with the vessel responsible for bringing our crew to Tantalus 13...and their only hope of escaping it...
           

          It’s been their home for half a year. It’s been a reliable ship, and Mary’s piloted it skillfully. But when things become disastrous on Tantalus 13, she and the crew be able to escape in time? Can there be any escape at all from the terrors within Tantalus 13?
          Find out, when you order Tantalus Depths...

            Landon Trine liked an update for Tantalus Depths

            Tantalus Depths has stumbled upon one of the best support bases I could have hoped for. Thanks to you all, we’ve passed the 600 pre-order mark and are soaring on our way to that final goal. As thanks to you for getting us this far, the first three chapters of Tantalus Depths are now uploaded on Inkshares. If you’d like to read them, here’s a quick link to each:
            Chapter 1
            Chapter 2
            Chapter 3
            If you missed my video of me reading chapter one, check that out here if it interests you. I’ve just uploaded a reading of chapter 2 as well, chapter 3 to be forthcoming in the near future.


            Keep bringing in the support! We’re only a little over two weeks away from the end of the campaign, and have a fair amount of ground left to cover. But we can, and will, get there.
