Dear readers, or fellow adventurer's if you prefer. I have restarted my project and entered the sequal to the Inkshares sword and laser contest. I have been blessed by your willingness to follow through on an unknown author and unpublished work. All pre-order's have been canceled, and I am again asking for your loyalty and support as I move forward with To Kill a King.
Thank you. for all your support.
I'm just gonna put this here and get back to writing.
EASY INKSHARES CREDITS! There, got your attention. Here goes this off-week update :)
1: You can get a $5 credit on Inkshares the first time you point out an excerpt. Just highlight something you like in my draft chapters (the first time I did this it was an accident) and you got it. You can also be extra lazy by hitting "like" on someone else's excerpt instead. It's a great way for those who haven't done it to get credits and then, you know, buy my book on the cheap!
2: I'll finally be buying more books on Inkshares super-soon. I was out of a job a tiny bit and can finally now actually get things going insofar as returning some love to people that support me. Unfortunately, that car accident and jobless state cost me a ton of marketing budget, but I still feel pretty good about things after an extension of my deadline. Time to pimp myself smarter and more aggressively :)
3: My new prologue content is up in a draft state, and a new chapter featuring excerpts from all other chapters in the book is also up. The book is done minus like one chapter and two rounds of editing, one with a professional that won't happen for a while anyway. Basically, new stuff to read if you're up to it. Feel free to highlight an except from one of those excerpts, too!
4: Inkshares Review-a-thon! On September 19th, there will be a mass of reviews. Click the link attached to the picture above to go the event's Facebook page for more info. Also, here it is in case the link above doesn't work:

Thanks everybody! Earn those credits, buy my book! Hit X to feel!
I got you a Christmas present.
Well, I’m kind of ’re-gifting’ it. Every year, me and my co-conspirator Jonathan Sparks get a bunch of friends together and make a Christmas album. This is our sixth one from last year, and I just uploaded it all on Soundcloud and made a fancy playlist for you all to enjoy.
As should come as no surprise: it is weird. But some nice songs! Your heart will be warmed even as you are confused.
AMOD Update: Turned in copy edits this week, so we are full speed ahead into proofing, production, and staying on schedule for release in April. It was odd/nice to do my final ’creative’ work on the book - there’s always a tiny ache along with the relief as my brain gets to free up resources for other projects. I am beyond proud of this book - and very eager for you all to get to read it.
Reviews and blurbs. Over the next few weeks you’re going to start seeing me actively address and educate you about the massive importance of reviews to the success of AMOD. All of the backers should be receiving copies of the book before the official release - those early reviews are crucial to the long-term survival of the book. I’m also on the hunt for extremely influential and famous people who want to tarnish their reputation by reading the book and giving us a blurb for the cover - which is daunting!
Thanks as always for your support and attention! Enjoy the Shadeaux Bros!
