Greetings!

On Wednesday, I did a 30  minute interview with Mary Jane Popp on KAHI in Sacramento, California. You can listen to it by clicking here:

Next week, I scored a booking at WLW-AM 700 (50,000 watts) - with Bill Cunningham - Cincinnati, OH

This station has one of the strongest radio signals in the United States and my  interviewer is the recipient of the 2001 and 2009 Marconi Award as America's Big Market Radio Personality of the Year.

I'm still looking for more supporters to step up, so if you are ready to review Journey, here are the important links -

Weekly update.

Did another talk-radio interview at a South Dakota station (KORN/KQRN) on Thursday.

But the biggest news of the week was my return visit to the Barnes & Noble in Salem, NH.

A week before Christmas I did a book signing event at this store and the managers told me that it was the most successful author appearance there for all of 2015. At that time my book was set up on a table at the front of the store - so a few days ago I went back to see where Journey had been placed on the shelves for the longer term.

As we all know, the vast majority of books are displayed so that you can only see the spine of the book, so the chances that any individual book will stand out from the rest is minimized.

You can imagine how psyched I was to see that Journey was one of the few to recieve the highly coveted "face-out" status!

That alone is pretty exciting, but in addition to that, by pure coincidence my book just happens to be displayed next to the current best-selling title in the sci-fi / fantasy section!

This happened because books in each genre are shelved in alphabetical order by author last name. So the decision to give my friend Mykl Walsh the cover credit led to an unexpected major benefit. Volume I of my serialized novel, SecretAgentMan is "hidden" inside the short story Journey and there is no mention on the cover that my work is what most of this book actually contains.

Only 2 days left to hit at least 250 preorders!

Also its Wednesday which may cause some of you to note how I missed both my Sunday and Tuesday updates.  With the deadline so quickly approaching I decided to skip those updates in favor of doubling up on pitching the book.

We're currently at 285 followers, and 86 copies ordered by only 78 of those followers.  That means 207 of you haven't ordered yet, and if only 164 of you(roughly 3/4) did then we would be at the Quill goal.  While I'm too much of a realist to not acknowledge that its a long shot with such a small amount of time remaining, I'm also too stubborn to give up and not push for it to happen.

With that in mind I'll point out that now is the perfect time to take the chance on Exile, Magus by going ahead and hitting that order button.  If enough of you do so, then this book will be published by Inkshares and find its way into your hands.  If not, then your money and/or credits will be refunded to you after the campaign ends so that you'd have it back in about 3 days time.  So I beg of you to order now if you haven't done so already.

That's all I've got for today.  I will be back Saturday to for an end of funding campaign update.  As always I want to thank everyone for your support, it has been quite entirely heartwarming.  I just wish I'd been able to communicate more directly with all of you.  If any of you do want to communicate with me, then you should hit me up on Facebook and/or Twitter(@thoasoold).  In the meantime, keep reading and enjoying!
