Wednesday night I headed over too Berkeley for the Trekonomics signing event. Had a great time listening to people talk Trek and got to meet the author himself. Very inspiring to meet a very successful Inkshares author. Even got my copy Signed!

Hi all,
haven’t been in touch for 2 weeks, but it doesn’t mean i haven’t been working. 616 orders we are, with 28 days to go (wow). This is where I need you all to step up, we are only 134 orders short of 750 --never thought I would be saying this (!)
So, please please, forward this pre-order link https://goo.gl/3bTKYB to all your friends. I will donate 3.5$ from every order to the kids at Norwood UK (who really need it) and you get to send me off to Inkshares full publication, g-d willing...
Inkshares fellow authors, if you have extra credits to toss at the cause - I will be grateful just the same.
I thank every single order, they all count. But also wanted to mention Josl, Judith, Ora and Daniella, all placed generous multiple orders.
Once you’ve done with me, please take the time to check my dear friend Evan Graham’s Tantalus Depths, an excellent SciFi novel worthy of your attention. Evan is actively helping me, and had written a fantastic novel - so I wanted to mention him as well.
Finally, it is no secret that for EURO 2016 as always I back the Azzurri (Americans look it up - sorry).. But interesting (and not easy) days are upon us here in England with current events and also the potential Brexit.
So while you all go out there to promote my book (a dash of wishful thinking) join me all with a BIG Hurrah to the Lions in white!! Go England!
Hey, readers.
Hello readers and supporters!
I have some good news!...The artwork is finished! (With room to possibly add extra) take a look...
Remember that father’s day is just around the corner...
Please pledge yourself a copy (or two) for friends, relatives or yourself and help me reach the quill goal.
Thank you so much for your support so far and best wishes to everyone!
All right -- here comes the home stretch.
Seeking the Elephant is heading into the home stretch, we’re now T-Minus 39 days until the funding process ends. After that, 90 of you will enjoy a refund & Seeking the Elephant will not yet see light publication.
THAT IS NO FUTURE FOR US, HOWEVER! PRE-ORDER NOW!
Pre-order today if you haven’t already. Share to your Twitter, your Facebook. Call your mom, call your cousin, call your best friend, and even call that weird guy you see every other week when you buy coffee. You know, the twitchy one with too much dandruff. We can do this, but only with your help!
REMEMBER:
For those who missed, Seeking the Elephant also has a new book trailer!
Hello Friends:
I’ve been staring at this blank page for 45 minutes trying to figure out what to say. In the wake of the Orlando shooting, I keep going back and forth struggling to decide what is the right way to express my anger and hurt.
As a gay man and as the founder of the Write Out Loud Syndicate I think it is important to remind my readers and supporters that homophobia and transphobia continue to be a reality in our country. The LGBTQ community has won significant battles in the past years, but there are still plenty of people vulnerable to violence and discrimination.
I know that love and action are the answers. So I will focus my anger into action and fight the hateful rhetoric flooding the internet with love. This afternoon I will attend a vigil in memory of the victims. I encourage you to do the same in your area. Show your support; show that you are not afraid to stand next to the LGBTQ community.
It is not the violence against us but our courage what define us.
In this link, there are other ways in which you can help.
Love
Ricardo
Hi you blood thirsty lot.
I’m just updating you all with what’s going on in my world. I’m finishing a final edit before joining the Quill gang and getting the publishing boat launched for Louisiana Blood. As some of you may know, I’m also writing the follow up called Bruges Blood as well. What would be really great is if you could all take a spin over to the Bruges Blood site for that book and become a follower over there. By all means also leave any comments, it’s thanks to you that the book is being published and I’d like you all onboard for my reader update when I gear up to promote BRUGES BLOOD.
You can check it out and follow me by clicking HERE!
Also while I have your attention there are a couple of books that you might like to throw some credits at as they are all first class reads.
The author of SYNC CITY is not resting on his laurels either and has a cracking Sc-Fi project in the works DESTINY IMPERFECT check it out!
Another great novel I love is Pixilated Obsidian Roses As the universe draws to a close, two young men befriend the mysterious Shedim, and their parallel worlds begin to converge--an experimental dark fantasy, in the vein of Lovecraftian Cosmic Horror.
Check Pixilated Obsidian Roses out HERE
And finally, another great genre mashup. Check out SEVEN DAYS DEAD a brilliant new slant on a Zombie outbreak set against the backdrop of a middle east conflict. Christopher has done a fantastic job of injecting something fresh into the undead genre and he deserves to succeed in getting this published. Take a bite out of his novel and tuck in!
Okay, that’s my update. Look forwards to seeing you all over on the side of Bruges Blood!
It’s the last day to help fund Deus Hex Machina, and I’m in a giving mood.
EVERY order today will get a gift from me: a graphic novel short story I wrote as part of the compilation Winter’s Eye (available on Amazon here).
So how can you, the book supporter who’s already ordered help? Please get ask one friend to order to the book today!
Yes I know it’s an impossible task, but I have visions of full funding today. Of waking up to 750 orders. That’s only 450. NBD. Totally doable. Do I *know* 450 people? NOPE. Aye, there’s the rub.
Love to all you crazy book lovers. You’re the reason this book is a thing.
See you on the other side of funding
Hello early-adopters!
We’re approaching two whole months since Practical Applications for Multiverse Theory left the literary uterus and was birthed out into the scary world of bookselling.
We hope that you’ve been enjoying the book, or at the very least enjoying telling people that you know someone who wrote a book, or enjoying having another item cluttering up that desk that you were totally going to use to help you get organized but is now covering in loads of junk mail and assorted novelty items.
If you have read the book, don’t forget to leave reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. Exposure and sales are directly affected by the number of reviews a book receives.
Just as important, if you enjoyed the book, please tell a friend. Tell two friends. If you have more than two friends (WE GET IT YOU’RE REAL POPULAR), tell all of them.
And now they can get a digital copy of the book for even less. The ebook price for #multiversebook is now just $4.99! That’s less than five dollars!
We promise we’re working on the next book in the series,
Nick & Noa
