James Rasile liked an update for Fortunes of the Space Sloth

Greetings Followers of the Space Sloth! 

It’s been a couple updates since I talked about the writing and funding process itself, so here goes. For those of you who are new to the book there is a completed first draft. Keep in mind the sample chapters on Inkshares are from this draft. 

Through the kindness of friends and family it is getting a thorough critique and is transforming as we speak. One person is reviewing it for interest, one for content, and one for structure. I’ve also been going through and adding bits and pieces of backstory and information that got left out the first time. I really am very happy with how the story is fleshing itself out. Publication aside, the fact that people are reading…and enjoying…the story is pretty cool. 

The funding process is chugging along slowly. The semester has come to a close. The paperwork is (almost) done. And my spring 50K ultramarathon is completed (Spartan Race is next if anyone is curious). So, more time for writing, editing, and promoting the book! 

Wish me luck and keep spreading the word where you can. The Space Sloth and her crew still needs your help. 

PT

    Readers,

    Hi, y’all. Sorry for the lengthy silence and no updates anywhere. I was on vacation last week with my family and was unable to get to my computer for an update. I also spent a surprisingly large amount of time eating, sleeping, and then eating some more. I’ve included a picture so you can see I’m telling the truth.

    The few orders that have been trickling in recently are so appreciated, you guys. It warms my cold, cynical heart to see your support. We have a few more months to go, but if we were to hit our 750 orders before then we’d be able to publish that much faster! I know you’re as excited as I am to see this little draft of mine become a published book that you can put on your bookshelf. Remember, tell your family, your friends, the barista who makes your coffee at Starbucks...everyone. Working together is the only way we can make this dream a reality!

    I’m working on the draft and my blog (www.rhwebster.wordpress.com) as much as I can right now, but I’m back to my real-life job this week too (everyone needs a paycheck and I’m not famous yet). In the meantime, thanks for your patience (and maybe think some happy vibes for my sanity).

    A thousand thanks to you all,

    - Webster

          I’m currently in the middle of a staycation here in the Orneck household. Movies, minimal cooking, discovering old restaurants made new...it’s heaven.  It’s been great to get my creative juices flowing, so I am sitting down to sneak some planning in for Chapter 8, the big set piece.  

          In other news, recently I wrote an article about DHM over on Game Geex that is worth reading, and I was interviewed over on The Warbler, which was amazing. 

          It’s Monday, a fresh week with fresh possibilities. I can’t wait to see what’s in store. 

          Love,
          Amanda

            I mess about with racing cars for work and although this sounds great, it’s very stressful. Reading ...
