IN BETA just received a glowing review from another staple of Portland, OR... the Unipiper!
Hello Friends:
I’ve been staring at this blank page for 45 minutes trying to figure out what to say. In the wake of the Orlando shooting, I keep going back and forth struggling to decide what is the right way to express my anger and hurt.
As a gay man and as the founder of the Write Out Loud Syndicate I think it is important to remind my readers and supporters that homophobia and transphobia continue to be a reality in our country. The LGBTQ community has won significant battles in the past years, but there are still plenty of people vulnerable to violence and discrimination.
I know that love and action are the answers. So I will focus my anger into action and fight the hateful rhetoric flooding the internet with love. This afternoon I will attend a vigil in memory of the victims. I encourage you to do the same in your area. Show your support; show that you are not afraid to stand next to the LGBTQ community.
It is not the violence against us but our courage what define us.
In this link, there are other ways in which you can help.
Love
Ricardo
We’ve hit another milestone today! Can you guess what it is?
That’s right! Tantalus Depths has just passed 300 pre-orders! As promised, I’m going to be making my original short story, The Perspective Machine, available for free to everyone for a short time. From June 18 to June 22nd, anyone will be able to download it for free off Amazon, already formatted nicely for your e-reader. Click the pretty cover image below to go check it out!
I hope you enjoy it! If you do, please give it a nice little rating over there on Amazon, and feel free to tell your family and friends to pick up a copy for themselves. And definitely don’t stop sharing Tantalus Depths! We’re getting close to the halfway mark, but there are only two months left in Tantalus Depths’s campaign, so we need all the support we can get!
It’s the last day to help fund Deus Hex Machina, and I’m in a giving mood.
EVERY order today will get a gift from me: a graphic novel short story I wrote as part of the compilation Winter’s Eye (available on Amazon here).
So how can you, the book supporter who’s already ordered help? Please get ask one friend to order to the book today!
Yes I know it’s an impossible task, but I have visions of full funding today. Of waking up to 750 orders. That’s only 450. NBD. Totally doable. Do I *know* 450 people? NOPE. Aye, there’s the rub.
Love to all you crazy book lovers. You’re the reason this book is a thing.
See you on the other side of funding
Digging the new tags for books, man! Very interesting! Particularly with the "#1 Most Property Interest In Fantasy" and your new "Properties" app! (congrats on that @Jeremy Thomas and @Adam Gomolin!)
Just wondering if we will have a list where we can see all of these tags in one place. I had a feeling about some of them, searched and guessed right, and were pleasantly surprised by others.
Any thoughts on a master list where we can view them all? And care to give us any hints on the upcoming Properties app? Either way, cool additions, I dig it! Can tell you guys are really working hard which is awesome to see. Thank you!!!
