I am interrupting my day at work because of this unbelievable happening, and I simply had to share it with you! I have gotten the highest honor I have ever received for my writing! I was notified a few minutes ago by @Matthew Isaac Sobin, the syndicate lead of the GREAT SCIFI for the 21st CENTURY and BEYOND SYNDICATE that Mission 51 is their July selection!!!!
Like I told Matt, this honor has left me spinning with feelings. I am humbled that anyone would think of me and my work like this. I am overjoyed! And I feel like a funny fear has been lifted, a fear that my thought and words are insignificant. This honor is very encouraging!
Here is what Matt had to say:
The SciFi syndicate is thrilled to support Mission 51 with our July selection! Ferd Crôtte has created something truly intoxicating. The perfect premise, which takes one of the great mysteries / intrigues of the 20th century and puts us directly in the alien’s shoes; it’s SciFi and historical fiction wrapped into one. In addition, there is special artwork which illuminates the story with a deft touch. We can’t wait to read more, and for this story to become a book on our shelves. We encourage our fellow Inkshares authors and readers to support this praiseworthy project!
Matt, thank you very, very much from the bottom of my heart for this valued honor! I am re-energized to continue making Mission 51 the absolutely best it can be! Thank you!!!

When it rains, it pours. Today I was surprised and delighted by this recommendation:
"This looks super polished, authentic, and like a great deal of fun, definitely want a copy when it’s done!!!! - Felicia Day"
Felicia’s show THE GUILD has been a huge inspiration to me (and countless others). I’m honored to have her endorsement of IN BETA.
Today, I hit the motherload of endorsements.
"Prescott is one brilliant dude, and I cannot wait to see what he cooks up, in any medium!"
- JJ Abrams
Yes, that actually showed up in my inbox earlier this afternoon. I am incredibly flattered and more than a little shocked. What a vote of confidence!
There are just days left in the contest, and the pressure is building. Please share this exciting news with social networks, and help me make IN BETA a thing!
Hey Everyone,
July 11 was to be the final day of the campaign. However, after some discussion with a few good folks, I have decided to extend it to the end of September. We are 58 percent funded, and these extra three months should be enough time to generate at least another 105 pre-orders.
Secondly, A Bedlamite in Shadow has been chosen for support by Joni Dee’s Thriller Night Syndicate . They are a great group of successful Inkshares authors and I am grateful for their encouragement and support. Check them out here:

Also, the book has been selected as the first book for support by the new White Knight Syndicate.

If you are still on the fence and have yet to order, please consider hitting that pre-order button. And if you have ordered, consider buying a second copy for a friend or family member. We’re almost there. Every order at this point is crucial.
Finally, I’d like to mention a few projects that I am supporting. Check them out.
Seven Days Dead: The beginning of a zombie outbreak in the Middle East. Characters of different cultures and faiths try to reach safety.
Borehole Bazaar: A Vow Unbroken: A slight twist on the traditional hero, the protagonist fails to escape capture and emotionally breaks before finding inner strength.
Mothering: The Game: What happens when a long time gamer becomes a first time mom? Motherhood becomes the most engaging game she’s played.
Thanks for taking this journey with me. Almost there.

Kyle grabbed the last slice of bacon off the plate in the middle of the dining room table as his father topped off his mug of coffee. Dunking a donut into his coffee before taking a satisfyingly large bite Roland leaned back against the kitchen counter. He was tall but was visibly shorter than he used to be. Before the crash he stood a full six foot two inches. Nowadays though, with the slouch in his back and the pain in his right leg cause him to peak around five-foot-ten. He was wearing his . . .
