Your support has been fantastic these last two weeks, guys.  We just hit 79 preorders and 70 individual readers!  This is incredible, and puts us well on our way to reaching the 250 preorder milestone we need to get A Light in the Void published.

You may have noticed the book cover has changed from a photo I took in Spain to a more stylized cover with a cat touching the universe.  The artist is a good friend from Korea.  Check out his instagram at www.instagram.com/thedrinkybear.  He’s incredibly talented, and very much open to commissions if you would like him to design your own book cover.  

The goal this week is to reach 100 preorders sold and/or at least 87 individual readers. Once we reach either goal, I will release another excerpt from the book.  This next excerpt will get more into the meat and the mysteries of the novel.  Please reach out to friends into sci-fi, fantasy, magical realism, or even if they’re just interested in reading about things bigger than themselves.

As a thank you for all your support, here’s a sneak peak of the next excerpt: 

The gas station had an empty feel. It hadn’t had any visitors for a long time, long enough for the loneliness to sink into the rusty hoses of the gas tanks and the mottled gray stone that hadn’t been paved in years. Under a yellow sign with faded, chipped numbers stood a small shack, yellowed spotted windows hiding whatever lay inside. The numbers on the sign advertised gas at three dollars a gallon, which was current as far as Bryce knew. He didn’t drive and Bryce didn’t own a car, so he didn’t really have any reason to know what the price of gas should be. It felt old and unused, like it had accepted that its use was done and that it may not be used again. It was a strange place to meet.

Thanks so much for all your support!  You all are amazing!
