Lots of great news!
The Seventh Aspect is now an Inkshares staff pick! It’s also received a recommendation from none other than our fearless leader, and Inkshares CEO Jeremy Thomas! (I certainly didn’t see that one coming). To say I am humbled and grateful is an understatement.
I’d just finished another big round of edits on the posted chapters right before he sent his recommendation. So keeping your drafts updated and improved pays, folks. You never know who is lurking.
In honor of this fun occasion:
1. I have a long professional history in showbiz, so I’m a sucker for dream casts. I’ve decided to share my dream cast for the main characters in chapters 1 and 2. Here’s the kicker: I’m not posting their character names. So that means you’ll have to read to figure out who’s who.
2. There’s a reference to an infamous 70’s horror film in chapter 1. Our main extraterrestrial character has a thing for human sci-fi and horror media. So bonus points if you catch it and know what it is. It’s funny, I promise. Similar funky references will be sprinkled throughout the story.
Two more chapters are on the way. You’ll get to meet more of our alien researchers, and maybe even travel to another dimension. Mmmm....dimensions....
As always, if you like what you read, please leave a comment or review. Thanks so much again for your interest. It means a lot.
Stay tuned…
Hi all,
We’ve reached 75 pre-orders (yay!) so here’s painting piece #2!
Thank you all so much for the support! With every pre-order I am more motivated to keep writing :) I am wrapping up Chapter 3 - Cheat Code at the moment. If you haven’t already check out the first 2 chapters below:
Enjoy the rest of the day!
Best,

Hello Air Pirates!
Well, last weekend I had a few of my very talented filmmaking friends over to the backyard to shoot a video of a few pages from the "Wings of the Pirate" novel. We had a great time doing it - our amazing Cinematographer, Dan Farnam did the whole scene in 1 continuous shot. Hopefully you will experience some of the book’s colorful characters and fun homage to classic adventure stories. While you’re at the site, don’t wait, place your order for the ebook or Hardcover and become part of the team that makes this book happen!!
Thank You! - your adventurous Seaplane Captain, EH
ps. you may have noticed we need more funds to finish our CGI work with the monkey.
Greetings all! First off, I want to say thank you all for supporting me I truly appreciate it. We are only 4 pre-orders away from unlocking the 2nd piece of the painting!! :D If you haven’t pre-ordered yet or can think of anyone that would enjoy my story, please do so! Also, I wanted to take a quick detour and say how extremely excited I am about The Last Guardian having a release date. I waited years and years for this game. WOO!!
Have a good day all :)

Good morning Dreamers!
I hope everyone is well, I hope everyone is safe, and I hope my friend recovered from being attacked by a pack of wild dogs he thought he saw (he was... extra sober). We have officially hit the one month mark and are sitting at 193 pre-orders! I tell you what I’m going to do about it, as I’m currently fist pumping and typing one -handed, which is taking forever. I am going to release a chapter at pre-order 200.
The second bit of news is that I’m partnering with S. J. McCune of Millicent Barnes Comics for some artwork. I’ve followed his for some time off kickstarter, bought some amazing artwork which is now framed on my walls, and could not recommend in independent artist more highly. Check his work out at millicentbarnescomics.jimdo.com or comixology under the name.
Thank you again for your support and let’s get these last pre-orders for Quill!
Sweet Dreams,
Stephen
