In a near-future alternate reality, a fractured world struggles to find peace after nuclear war. 17-year-old orphan, Cam Blackwell, holds an ancient secret that could bring balance to this Earth. But first, he has bigger problems.
In the early 80s, there was a legend of an evil arcade game found in Portland. Some thought it was remnants of the CIA’s brainwashing experiments. Others, that it was only a hoax. The truth was far more sinister...
I have great plans concerning my literary efforts. Worry not; The Life Engineered and it's sequel are a huge part of those plans. The Life Engineered should make it's way to your grasping appendages early in 2016. There will be a period of a few months after that to allow you to enjoy multiple readings of The Life Engineered after which I will probably attempt to fund the sequel on Inkshares.
However, what am I to do until then? The answer is evident: Write another book.
As some of you know, I am currently running a campaign for another novel on Inkshares. It is called 'A God in the Shed' and is a completely different genre but it's another project I'm very passionate about and that I think you'll enjoy.
Consider giving your support to A God in the Shed. It doesn't have any robots but it does have a zombie cat. That's almost the same right? Have a look! What's the worst that could happen?
I don't have much to say today that wouldn't be the same old redundant platitudes. Every morning I wake up and look at the rankings and every morning I'm surprised that out of over 200 entries in this contest, I'm still in the top 5%. It is incredibly humbling and I am grateful to each and every one of you. Whether you've pre-ordered three books or you're just hanging out and watching the show.
However, let's be honest, if you bought a book, I love you more than if you didn't. Does that hurt your feelings person-that-didn't-pre-order-yet? There's a button at the bottom of this page that will solve that problem.
Teasing aside, I do bring good tidings. Well, besides the continued success of this campaign. I have made a video. In fact, I have made a new cover for A God in the Shed and from that art I have made a video. A book trailer. You can watch it here, on the book's page. Marvel as the illustration takes life right before your eyes! Share with friends so they too can mock my feeble efforts at a convincing narration.
Enjoy the show my friends and once more; thank you.
Fellow sentient beings,
I require your assistance.
