All but one of the 1,000 experimental Earths created by the research team at H.E.V.In. have self-terminated. Now the scientists must race against the clock to prevent both of their worlds from being destroyed.

liked an update for Not Afraid of the Fall: 114 days through 38 cities in 15 countries.
Friends and Family,
WE ARE MAKING WAVES!
Not Afraid of the Fall is ranking incredibly high right now thanks to you guys and has almost broken the top 100 Best Selling books on Amazon. Spoiler - there are a TON of books on Amazon...
However, we are in dire need of reviews. In order for the book to gain exposure and be seen on larger pages, we need 100 reviews. We currently have 15 and they are terrific (for the most part), but 15 is not quite enough!
Monthly update time for Human Resources!
Last month I mentioned the focus of the developmental edit had been on expanding the world-building and firming up some of the science behind the novel. I’m pleased to report that is now complete, I have new beat sheets and scene outlines, and am officially writing pages again!
Speaking of science, the _MIT Technology Review_ just published a very interesting article on CRISPR being used to edit the DNA of human embryos. Why is this interesting? Because this application of CRISPR is a key trigger for the creation of the world in my novel. I’ve uploaded a special new excerpt to the Inkshares site telling the history of the world, from today to when my novel starts. You can read it here.
In other news, I took advantage of receipt trip to Sydney (the setting for the book), to further explore some of the relevant locations for scenes. I use the apple maps 3D city render, along with google street view extensively, but there’s nothing better than standing on-site. A couple highlights below.
That’s all for now — I need to get back to the manuscript and finish writing it so you can all read it.
Cheers,
Robert.
