Eric Bernier liked an update for The Life Engineered

Hello sentients,

I didn't expect to have to make this announcement, but here we are. When I got onto the Inkshares platform to crowdfund The Life Engineered it was because of the Sword & Laser Collection contest. However, despite having a very attractive grand prize of a full publication run with Inkshares, coaching from Gary Whitta and an interview with Sword & Laser, not to mention being part of the Sword & Laser collection of course, I had no aspirations to reach such heights. Even the concept of finishing in the top five and getting published seemed like a challenging goal but at least that was attainable.

So I entered and I campaigned and through the patience and support of, well, you fine intelligences, we managed to get The Life Engineered into the top five and I was ecstatic.

Then this happened today.

Go head and click on that link. Watch the video and come back. I'll wait.

So there we are. The Life Engineered will be one of two books, along with the awesomely titled 'Asteroid Made of Dragons', to premier in the Sword & Laser Collection. Dear readers, give yourselves a high-five, shake your own hand and slap yourself on the back because you did it. My congratulations to you for succeeding in this and my thanks for what you have given me. 

Now if you don't mind, I'm going to go have some chocolate to celebrate.

JF

    Hello readers, whether you are human, android or sophisticated computer AIs.

    Let me begin my extending my thanks for your interest in The Life Engineered. It's been a stressful couple of weeks getting to understand how this crowdfunding thing works and how to grab people's interest without pestering them too much. This campaign is a work in progress as I try to add incentives and benefits to backing my book while keeping up with the demands of finding new readers and grabbing their attention.

    However I don't want to forget those who've already committed to the cause or who are keeping an eye on my progress for now. As I currently work to add a book trailer to the campaign page, I find myself sketching out several robots in order to have a few visuals in the video. One of these seemed pleasing enough to my friends and I ended up making an iPhone wallpaper from the illustration. You can find versions for iPhone 5, 6 and 6+ by clicking here. I will be looking at adding Android versions in the future.

    Again; thank you for your support. If you haven't pre-ordered yet, please consider doing so soon and if you know anyone for whom a book about sentient robots fighting to protect their civilization from slipping into civil was would be interesting, please point them in my direction.

    Regards,

    JFDubeau
