K M Cooper liked an update for The Punch Escrow
Hello readers,

I’m writing this update on my flight  back from a busy work week in Las Vegas. I have received your many emails and texts informing me that we’d crossed the 101 reviews on Amazon on Monday, and I had every intention of sending the "missing" chapter earlier in the week, but things were hectic and I wanted to do one last read through prior to sending it out. Now is the time, however, and here is your link to YOU CAN’T HURRY LOVE (THE PHIL COLLINS VERSION) - the original ending of The Punch Escrow.

A fair warning, many of you will be underwhelmed, as there is a very good reason this chapter was edited out of the book in favor of the published ending. But as so many people ask me about the editing process, I thought this would be a good example of what "we" in "the biz" call "kill your darlings." I truly enjoyed writing the Charlie Jay character, but he came into the story too late, and frankly the this chapter lacked thrills and was too neatly buttoned up. So, I hope you enjoy it, but I understand if you don’t.

In other news, word is out that Todd Lieberman and David Hoberman, the production team behind the live action Beauty and The Beast, as well as The Muppets have now officially been attached to produce The Punch Escrow movie! It’s been a very hard secret to keep, especially since meeting Todd at my Book Soup event in LA. He’s been an incredibly magnanimous and a delight to interact with. I feel lucky to have him and David working with James Bobbin on the film adaptation of my book. I had a chance to speak with Kayti Burt from Den of Geek about it during San Diego Comic Con, if you’re interested in reading a more long winded discussion about the book to movie process.

More soon. Thanks for all your support thus far, and please keep on spreading the word. The book’s success is in your hands now.

Best,
Tal

    Sorry for the second e-mail, folks, but I needed to follow up quickly to let you know that I was wrong about the referrals and they are no longer a function of the Inkshares program.

    You WILL, however, get my undying, eternal gratitude for referring a friend. And that’s priceless, right?

    Sorry for the error, folks! Talk to you next week!

      Greetings, adventurers! 

       A bit of a slower week compared with last week, but still a good one. We’re getting closer and closer to the end, with just a bit over a week to go and 93 preorders to go at time of writing. It’ll be very close but I think we’ll be able to sneak right in, just in time. 

       A quick note: please double check your orders to make sure you’ll get your book! If you’ve had any problems with your orders, please make sure to reach out to hello@inkshares.com. 

       This is a big reminder about the contest! You can win a $50 Amazon gift card! You get one entry just for preordering, then an extra one for every preorder, extra entries for Facebook shares of the post, and more. All the details are in the pinned post over on my Facebook page.  

      Could I ask a favour of all of you this week? Could you please message a friend or family member that might enjoy this book and tell them a bit about it? When you do, please make sure to click “share” on the book’s page to generate your personal referral code for Inkshares credits! Make sure you’re logged in to Inkshares and click “Share” on Mushroom and Anchovy’s page to share your referral link. 

      The reason for this is that one-on-one conversations have been, in my experience, the best way to get results in the campaign. 

       At this time, we have to turn all this pressure into diamonds. And like the treasure hunters in this book, we’ve gotta hunt those diamonds down and claim them as our own! Or... something like that. 

       Thanks for everything, adventurers. I’m really grateful to have so many of you joining me on this, and I’m really floored by the amount of people who have been preordering so far. Thank you! 

       May your adventures be fraught with wonder and just enough peril to keep them interesting, 

       K. M. Cooper
