Patrick Tebbe sent an update for Crow’s Gambit

Greetings Supporters of Crow’s Gambit,

There are some big news items to discuss with you. As you know, Crow’s Gambit was one of the last books accepted into the Quill Imprint of Inkshares for publishing. The book has been in the editing queue with a month or two remaining until the process would start. However, I have made the decision that the best future for Crow’s Gambit exists outside of Inkshares. I have asked that the book be pulled from the queue for publishing. 

I have learned much from my time on Inkshares and will continue to support my fellow authors here. I have great appreciation for the encouragement of you, my Supporters, and Inkshares during this process.

What does this mean for you, my supporters?
In the next few days you should receive a refund from Inkshares. If your contact or banking information has changed please make sure to correct it on the Inkshares website now. If you have not received your refund in the next couple weeks please contact Inkshares to inquire (hello@inkshares.com).

What does this mean for Crow’s Gambit?
First, do not panic. You will still be able to read the Crow’s Gambit story. It will be available in ebook and Print on Demand through Amazon soon. The Proofreading edit came back just this weekend and I am working with a cover editor. An early February publication date is the goal right now.

In the next couple weeks I will be transitioning this discussion list over to a new emailing service. At that time I will provide full information on how you can get a copy of the book (watch for an email with Crow’s Gambit in the subject).

While you wait, I encourage you to visit my website https://26milesofbooks.com/

Again, thank you all for your support in both the past and the future.

    Patrick Tebbe sent an update for Fortunes of the Space Sloth

    Greetings Followers of the Space Sloth,

    I know it’s been a long journey but we are getting closer. My plan now is to self publish Fortunes of the Space Sloth. In October I finished doing a quick edit on the draft. By the end of November I hope to have it in the hands of an editor for copy edit and proofing. Hopefully by the start of next year I’ll have it available for you.

    In the meantime, I encourage you to check out my updated website here. Take note of the new option to signup for my mailing list (which I will slowly be transitioning to).

    November is also National Novel Writing Month (NanoWriMo). I’m working on a story with a tentative title of "Cloud Cities of Venus". It takes place in the same universe as Space Sloth but with a different cast of characters. I’ve promised to blog about my writing progress every day in November, so check that out on the website.

    More to come.

      Patrick Tebbe sent an update for Crow’s Gambit

      Greetings Crow’s Gambit Supporters!

      I have good news and not as good news. Last night I submitted the completed draft of Crow’s Gambit, along with all the other front and back matter, to Inkshares. I am sincerely sorry for the procrastination and the obsessive nitpicking that has delayed you getting your book. That said, Inkshares won’t be able to start working on it for at least three months.

      While you wait I will be getting you some Crow’s Gambit tidbits; the Crow Research prospectus and employee manual you have been promised, as well as some tidbits from the second book, Crow’s Haven.

      In the meantime, if you are in the mood, check out the short story I submitted last week to the Reedsy Short Story Contest called "Accident on the Waterloo". For those who are familiar with my other book on Inkshares, Fortunes of the Space Sloth, this story takes place in the same universe. (click here to read the story)

      As always, thank you for your support.
