Nicola Sarjeant liked the forum thread, Paypal ?
I have raised a creative thought with Jeremy to open an account that takes funds straight from author’s bank account, in favour of friends,co workers or acquaintances such as your friend who rather give cash since they can’t use paypal.

Today, if i use my credit card for a friend’s account, there’s a chance that i will come across as fraudulent. the idea i’m suggesting should be capped (let’s say 75 orders 10% so no-one will game the system and self sponsor), but can prove a viable option in my opinion (i can count 10 orders i missed because there is no paypal) . 

As Jeremy said - paypal charges 8% which is, i agree with him, insane. but still might be the best solution. (i’d give 8% out of my royalties in order to get paypal)

    Nicola Sarjeant liked an update for Sync City

    Greetings Jackolytes,

    Sync City continues to burble along nicely and there’s still time to jump on board before the funding process is done in ten days time. For those of you that are following but have yet to pre-order this is the link for you: Sync City Come on in, the water’s fine!

    And speaking of fine, there’s a fine book out there written by a fine man that could do with a nudge in the 250 direction. Mike Donald, a screenwriter by profession, has produced an absolute gem in Louisiana Blood and is 19 days away from his funding period finishing. He needs 29 more pre-orders. 19 days, 29 pre-orders. I can’t think of a better place to put your cash this weekend. Beers may come and go but a book is forever. Hit this link: Louisiana Blood  and bring a damn good book to life.

     Cheers,

     Peter

      Nicola Sarjeant liked an update for How to Get Run Over by a Truck

      Dear Sweethearts, 

      I hope that you are doing well and that you have had a wonderful Wednesday! I have been trying to not overwhelm you all with too many update emails, but I have a few things to tell you! 

      I have been working on the edits of How to Get Run Over by a Truck, and it has been really incredible.  The editors at Girl Friday are so talented, and I cannot wait to share it with you! It will only be a few more months and you will have the book in your hot little hands.

      The other more immediate news is that in collaboration with the designers at Girl Friday, we now have a fancy new cover! Do you love it? I LOVE IT! The photo that is on the cover is one that I took while on the Williamsburg Bridge about 4 years ago.  I remember the urgency I felt while taking that photo, I needed to capture that moment because I was so blown away by how beautiful the bridge looked.  I had walked over that bridge tons of times, but I had never really noticed the street art, and how pathway looked like it went on forever - it made me feel so joyful.  It was the perfect reminder that everything in life is better when you remember to look up. 

      Thank you so much for your support, and I really hope that you like the new cover! 

      Heart,

      Katie

        Nicola Sarjeant liked a review for The Animal in Man
        The Animal in Man immediately draws the reader in with its imaginative world and cast of memorable characters. In some ways I'm reminded of the Redwall series, but the author has left behind the simplistic storied telling of the former and created a three dimensional world which demands to be read. I look forward to seeing this project reach bookshelves!
