As you may have already guessed, I decided to skip yesterday's blog post due to the hectic nature of my schedule this week.  This will also be my last update until Saturday.  I've got a fair amount of baking I need to get done today, so I'm going to try to keep this one short.

First, on Exile, Magus.  We're currently at 64 copies ordered amongst 60 readers, and have 247 followers.  This means that 187 of you haven't ordered yet, and if you all were to that would put us up to 251 ordered which is just over the Quill goal.  So, obviously I do hope those of you who have been on the fence or otherwise waiting to order will do so soon since we only have 30 days left in the campaign at this point.  Also just in case there is still some confusion(which would have unfortunately been caused by my own confusion), everyone physical copy ordered will be a signed copy.

Now on to try to spread a little book love to a book I can't wait to read.

​For every 10 book orders, Tony is raffling off a mug featuring the book's spectacular retro sci-fi cover art! Buy a book and join the fun!

The book campaign ends DECEMBER 27TH! ORDER TODAY!

Thanks for the graphic, Vincent!

It's official, gang! We are OVER THE LINE!

Dax WILL be published. I can't thank you all enough. The show's not over and there's still a TON of work to do, but for now, I'm over the moon.

Now, a couple updates. First, fantasy author C. Brennecke invited me to do an interview for her blog, Myths, Mists & Musings! She had some great questions about the book, and naturally, I rambled on far too long. Haha. There's also a new exclusive excerpt from Dax to read! Check it all out HERE.

Also, be sure to check out Seven Shards: The Colors of Wine. There's about a month to go and plenty of orders to fill. Let's pay it forward and get another great book published!

And finally, a new special video update! I was planning to release it as a "4 days left" video. I guess it's now a victory video. ENJOY!

Tis the season to look out for others.  So, here's an update to help a fellow author!

Hello there wonderful people,

I wanted to take this opportunity to wish everyone a merry Christmas and happy holidays. I hope you've all been well and not too over whelmed by the stresses of this time of year. Thank you all for your continuing support. I'm working hard to polish my work to be the best it can be and in the next bit Ill be posting a re-edited chapter 1. If you like what you've seen so far don't forget to pre-order. It would really make my Christmas. For those who have already ordered thank you soo much for your support and faith in my work. 

Happy holidays 

Machiners!

We have entered Winter, officially speaking, but the weather is hardly frightful and our spirits are so delightful. What a day! 

First and foremost, my congratulations to Tony Valdez on reaching 250 pre-orders for his comedic SciFi romp Dax Harrison!  Meaning books will be on the way! This is really well deserved. Great concept, awesome writing, hard work - check all the boxes. Also, amazing to see how the Inkshares community really banded together to push a colleague toward the finish line. Love it. 

OnThe Last Machine front the beat goes on and such a groovy beat it is. 

The Review-a-Thon this past Saturday was fantastic. Thanks to A.C. Weston for coordinating which undoubtedly took much time and effort. It yielded some amazing reviews for the novella, which I am very thankful for. Some of them I have been able to reciprocate already. Others I haven't gotten to yet. But I will. I promise. Thanks to Michael Valdez, AR Patterson, Jason Pomerance, Dave Barrett, and Byron Gillan for their wonderful words. It really does mean a great deal.

We've now surpassed 80 readers!! Thank you to all the new followers and supporters. Because we hit 75, I've conducted a clandestine raffle of unknown scope and substance....

And the winners are Melissa Berg and Peter Birdsall. You have each won a signed copy of Alter Ego No. 91 from January 2010. It's a super cool magazine and has an epic interview covering basically every topic possible with my friend and The Last Machine artist Jack Katz. Here are a couple of images for you:

We're at 81 readers so we might as well shoot for 100. Yeah, why not? Maybe we can do that by Sunday? Let's try. More cool stuff to come if we make it.
