Jim McDoniel sent an update for An Unattractive Vampire

Hey Wonderful, possibly blizzardful people,

The Sword and Laser Contest: The Sequel has ended and there are three new soon-to-be published authors in the world. Congratulations to The Last Machine in the Solar System by Matthew Isaac Sobin, Bones of the Past by Craig Munro, and officially joining us in The Sword and Laser Collection, The Animal in Man by Joseph Asphahani.

Remember just because the contest is over doesn't mean there aren't plenty of deserving books trying to get published, so head over to the submission page and support an aspiring author before it was cool, like the hipster that you are.

As for An Unattractive Vampire, it moves on. I have made final approvals to both the cover and interior, so it is off to the printers. Soon, oh so soon, you will each receive your warm, pulpy copy that you can touch and smell and lick...and...uh...read...because, haha, who does those other things? Am I right? Haha. Anyway, the publishing date is March 15, less than two months away and believe me, there will be publicity. I will update you as I start showing up on podcasts and news sites near you. Until then, enjoy this relative calm before the storm. Unless you're on the East Coast, in which case, just enjoy the storm.

    Greetings Readers, Followers, Human Beings, and Advertising Algorithms,

    I promised you this day would come. You didn't believe me. I didn't believe me. But it's here at last...

     

    That's right! I finally figured out how to work the internet. No more free AOL homepages and half-hearted Tumblrs for me. www.jimmcdoniel.com is a thing. A thing that both exists and works. Go there now and behold the wonder and glory of me copy and pasting pictures onto Squarespace. Marvel at my ability to link you back here to Inkshares. Thrill as you view my Twitter account while not on Twitter. Ooooo. Aaaaah.

    In other news, the Sword and Laser contest two is wrapping up this week. On Friday at noon (West Coast time, two o'clock here) three more authors will receive the full publishing treatment and one will join G. Derek Adams, J.F. Dubeau, and myself in the Sword and Laser collection. There are plenty of good books in the mix with plenty of time to make the jump so please, consider visiting the contest page and checking a few out like:

    For dystopic cyberpunk, click Deus Hex Machina.
    For epic demonic fantasy, click Bones of the Past.
    For sci-fi action/adventure, click The Amaranth Chronicles: Deviant Rising.
