I am a happy husband and father doing my best to leave the world in at least as good of condition as...
Will you guys get out pitchforks if I update twice in one day?
See, I realized I left out a few things. You can skip this one but I promise I made it special for you.
1. The Sample Excerpt is coming right up! It’s here and ready for you. I just wanted to preface it by letting you know where in the story we are. I’ve gone back to the original chronological order, so you’ll be reading from Damaus getting left in a room with the Contessa. dundundun!
2. More Contest FAQ. I know we did this awhile ago, but I probably left out some details, and a lot of you have joined the crew since then.
This contest is important because it’s a publishing deal, but it’s also more than a publishing deal (that’s the quick spiel I give for busy folks). But you, my dedicated backers, deserve more info.
The truth is, this partnership with Nerdist and Inkshares won’t only publish my book, but will give me a solid publishing house to edit, revise, and distribute my book. They have the power to put me in book stores and libraries, which is something I would never expect to accomplish through self-publishing. When I say these guys can make me a professional author, I really mean it.
And you should know that despite all the hard work they’re willing to do for the top three winners, as an author I still make a significant amount of the profit back. Not that the money is so important, but it helps when you want to treat something like a job!
And the usual disclaimer that if for some reason I don’t win this contest, and don’t meet the Inkshares funding goals after that, you will be refunded your contributions.
3. Video Update! Some of you may not be aware but my other side gig is music. I used to do some embarrassing acoustic videos and now get to work on things more exciting than that. Regardless, some people have found the video format works for them, so if you’d like it you can view it here.
4. Doodle! It was pointed out to me that I didn’t include a doodle of the day. I guess this is a thing now. This has been me since last night when we jumped into 6th.
