Military fiction, X-Men meets Avatar. What if the world had people with control over the primordial forces of nature? Kinesis is rampant and these are the people who keep it in hand.
Dear readers,
Time for another update! Short and to the point.
1. You are awesome!
2. Rise is out to various media types for reviews!
3. Still looking at a release party before Dragoncon. Those within driving range or attending the con and arriving on Thursday stay tuned for details.
4. I’m doing it again!! I have a new project in the pipeline ready to participate in the upcoming Geek and Sundry Hard Science contest. This story was the brainchild of my wife and I. It was the novel I first completed Nanowrimo with way back in 2011! So, you’d think I’d be all set for it. But, as with all things like this, draft one was...not up to snuff. So I’m reworking it over the next 8 weeks to have it ready to go by the end of the contest. And it’s only going to be 50K words! Nice after the 155K Rise clocked in at.
5. This is not a "funding campaign". I want to dispel that right off. Inkshares fronts the lion-share of the cost for production and distribution. I’ve seen the numbers so far. The preorder money only took the top off that total. So, what is this instead? It’s an opportunity for you to pick what the industry publishes and a chance to get a limited run first edition autographed by the author when it arrives instead of someday down the road! And there are lower thresholds to win a contract now: 250 for a light, but still physical distribution contract and 750 for the whole shebang Rise got.
6. Still reading? Go to tiny.cc/aftermannovel to check out the new project and if you like it, please follow. You’ll be able to pre-order starting Monday, 4 April 2016, and I hope you will come on board and support this one just like you did Rise. And remember, you don’t get charged until it reaches the preorder goal!
7. You are awesome!
I am sooooooo excited about this update.
1st : I just got interviewed by a local Newspaper.
that’s right, Lies and Deception will have an article in a Montreal newspaper, discussing the development of the book and the crowdfunding experience with Inkshares.

Welcome to all new followers , thank you for your interest for Lies and Deception. If you haven’t ordered the book yet ,do not hesitate this will be a hell of a story and you will not be disappointed.

Not much to report at this time, just getting ready to send out my first newsletter on Friday(4/1). Most of my detailed updates will be through the newsletter from now on, so be sure to sign up if you haven’t already. This first one will have a map, 1 informative short story, and 1 satirical short story, with both stories set in the same world as Exile, Magus. If those are things you’d be interested in, then be sure to sign up for the newsletter here since I’m only signing up those of you who either fill out the sign up form or message me directly to ask to be signed up. I hate to cut it short, but I have to get back to typing up story related items. Have a good weekend, and keep reading!
