Tony Valdez liked an update for It's All Fun and Games

Well hello there, supporters!

A couple updates for you all today: First, I have replaced the teaser materials on the Inkshares site so you can see the outcome of the developmental and line edits. The text reads much more cleanly now, and the characters have had all sorts of details about their lives added in, making them much more three dimensional than they were in the original draft. I'm hugely indebted to my editor Kiele Raymond for these improvements.

The second thing is that we are getting close to a finalized cover for the book. The cover designer has been working like a dog, and it's shaping up nicely. We've gone through two rounds of drafts, with the third due 12/23. As soon as the cover is approved I'll be sure to let you see it!

If you're on Facebook, don't forget to connect with me here.

And if you're on twitter, look me up at @llabak

Cheers

Dave

Tony Valdez liked an update for Suffrage - The First World Key

Hello Rebels!,

I know I updated only a short time ago but...

Arty Things! - did you notice our sparkly new cover art? I'm totally doing the snoopy dance right now. Aside from looking extremely cool, it gives everyone a chance to see the quality of Finn's arty brother. I'm impressed. What do you think?

I also have some very preliminary sketches for the Prize art. I'm not going to share them here, merely tease you with their existence, because they are a bit spoilery for the novel. I can assure you that they are very nice indeed. Maybe once I've uploaded more chapters...but for that to happen...we need more backers and to get the word out.

Getting the word out - Finn and I are doing an author Interview with local blogger and all round fabulous woman, Melanie Edmonds. Here's one she did previously with my good friend Matthew Hellscream (yes that's actually his real name and of course he writes in the Horror genre). Keep your eye's peeled for the self-conscious mumblings of socially awkward people. While I'm here, don't forget to connect with Snake here on twitter or Finn and myself here on Google + community for Suffrage.

That's all for now Rebels - Stay free.

Matthew Isaac Sobin has brightened this Winter Solstice. Not only has he pre-ordered a copy of The Investigations of the Para-Usual, but left a glowing review. Thanks very much for reading and commenting Matthew and a Merry Xmas to all Inksharers. Paul

Tony Valdez liked an update for The Knight Proper

Hey folks, Matt here.

So, we just launched our campaign for THE KNIGHT PROPER, and while we’re unfortunately out of Starbucks cards to raffle off, we wanted to throw an extra bonus out there for any fellow Inksharians who pre-order our book. Noticing that a lot of you out there also write screenplays or you’re thinking about writing screenplays, our offer is this…

For this week only, anyone who pre-orders our book will also get notes on their logline, their outline/treatment or the first ten pages of their script – you can also gift this for any of your screenwriting friends if you’d prefer that instead. Now, I’m just one more lousy voice/subjective opinion out there in the wilderness, but I have a produced credit under my belt and I teach the stuff, so hopefully it’s helpful in some small degree.

Just pre-order, then send the first ten pages of your (or your friend's) script (or the logline or treatment) to theknightproper@gmail.com - I should be able to get them back to you within a week, if not sooner. If you have any questions, feel free to email us there as well. Thanks again for all your support and happy holidays!

Tony Valdez liked an update for The Wolf at the Door

I just want to say a big thank you for the pre-orders, and also for the first two reviews.
I really appreciate the constructive honesty and will take another look at the first couple of pages myself to see if I can speed the pace up a tad.
Definitely will be going over punctuation, spelling and such like, chapter by chapter, and will welcome any corrections spotted while reading.
