G. Derek Adams liked an update for The Punch Escrow

Yesterday I was informed that The Punch Escrow will be the official inaugural selection for the Geek & Sundry collection on Inkshares! At this point I am still shocked that all of this is happening: That my book is getting published through Inkshares, on the Geek & Sundry imprint. I love you guys, I’ll never be able to give enough thanks for your help in making this happen.

As for the book itself, I’m still in the midst of the first rewrite, currently in the midst of the eighth chapter, The Sky Cries Martyr. In case you want a window into what that looks like, here you go:

As you can imagine, it’s a long and grueling, but living process. For example, even this screenshot is not up to date, as last night I got rid of the "eye cam" reference because it was redundant and slowed down the flow.

Don’t let my pursuit of perfection worry you though, I think I’m well on pace to deliver the rewrite to Inkshares by my August 1 deadline. Once I do that I’ll be able to share a more concrete publication timeline. I’m really looking forward to working with Inkshares and Geek & Sundry on making this book the best it can be. You guys are awesome.

    G. Derek Adams liked an update for Welcome to Deadland

    Hello Readers!

    This is a really exciting time for both Welcome to Deadland and me! The book is in the final stages of approval (full dust jacket, internal design, eBook layout) before being sent to the printer in less than a week! I know it seems like ages ago since many of you backed Welcome to Deadland, and I want to thank you all for your patience as we’ve been working hard to get everything in place. The wait is almost over!

    Some of you might have seen Inkshares’s recent tweet with a link to their properties page. The purpose of this page is to allow for book properties to be tracked so producers/publishers/etc. can see what options are still available for purchase. This can range from foreign language rights, to film/tv rights, comic book adaptations and more. Even if you’re not someone in the market looking to acquire book rights, it’s a great way to see what other formats you can expect to see your favorite Inkshares books become available in. If you click on the link above you’ll even see Welcome to Deadland  listed along with other books, and a neat surprise!


    The audiobook rights have been sold to Audible! That’s right, in the near future not only will you be able to read Welcome to Deadland, but you’ll also be able to listen to it in the car, while working out, walking down the street or anywhere else!

    Thank you all so much for your interest in support,

    -Zac

      G. Derek Adams liked an update for Ageless

      So... this happened.

      That’s G.(LORIOUS) Derek Adams, author of ASTEROID MADE OF DRAGONS, and myself (left) at XCON World Comic Convention in Myrtle Beach this past weekend. We sold some books, had some fun, and saw some fantastic cosplay (see below). 

      There also may or may not have been a lightly attended panel about crowdfunding hosted by those two handsome devils above.

      Also...this happened.

        

      SOOO...FRIENDLY REMINDER - Please review AGELESS on Amazon and Goodreads

      And, AGELESS ebook has been lowered to $2.99 for some time now. Share it with people you love! Or people that you hate...just get the word out. 

      Thanks everyone! KEEP SCROLLING FOR SOME COSPLAY!

        G. Derek Adams liked an update for Monkey Business

        Happy Belated Pubday to Monkey Business!

        Monkey Business is done. Available for buying. Available for reading. Available for loving. 

        I will do a much better update tomorrow but for now I just want to say thank you to everyone who has been kind enough to support this book. Thank you to Inkshares. Thank you to Girl Friday Productions. Thank you to everyone who is getting this update. You’re all the best.

        I have signed all your preorder copies and they should be getting to you in about two weeks (maybe sooner!) I was unable to think of a unique quote to write in every single book but I was able to write something different in a lot of them. As a consequence some of you are going to get some pretty weird shit in your books. I hope it makes it a little more special. Here’s one of my favorites:

         

        One of you (and I have no way of knowing who it will be) is getting an actual 4-leaf clover in your book. Because I found one that day and thought it would be a nice gesture. So whoever you are, enjoy that. I hope it brings you luck.

        I’ll write again this week with a proper update. Thank you. Hugs and Kisses from me and all those hairy little foul-mouthed monkeys you’ve helped support.

        - Landon

          Hi Everyone!

          Quick bit of exciting news - the file is off to the printer today.  There is no officially nothing to be done other than sit on my hands and wait for my babies to come back home.  The initial print run is going to be eight thousand copies.  So tell everyone you know to buy one too.  We need to move some inventory!

          I’m also sitting on another exciting piece of news just waiting for final confirmation - look for another update in the next several days.

          Cheers
          Dave

            Readers,

            Hi, y’all. Sorry for the lengthy silence and no updates anywhere. I was on vacation last week with my family and was unable to get to my computer for an update. I also spent a surprisingly large amount of time eating, sleeping, and then eating some more. I’ve included a picture so you can see I’m telling the truth.

            The few orders that have been trickling in recently are so appreciated, you guys. It warms my cold, cynical heart to see your support. We have a few more months to go, but if we were to hit our 750 orders before then we’d be able to publish that much faster! I know you’re as excited as I am to see this little draft of mine become a published book that you can put on your bookshelf. Remember, tell your family, your friends, the barista who makes your coffee at Starbucks...everyone. Working together is the only way we can make this dream a reality!

            I’m working on the draft and my blog (www.rhwebster.wordpress.com) as much as I can right now, but I’m back to my real-life job this week too (everyone needs a paycheck and I’m not famous yet). In the meantime, thanks for your patience (and maybe think some happy vibes for my sanity).

            A thousand thanks to you all,

            - Webster
