A picture book of 33 poems inspired by science [fiction], video games, books & movies, life in Paris and, above all else, the looming robopocalypse.
9 days left in the funding campaign, and 83 pre-orders to go to reach the Quill publication goal. It seems daunting, but not impossible!
Can you help get Mission 51 published? If you haven’t gotten your pre-order(s), there is no time to hesitate! Please, get one (or more) now! Why not be on the short-list of Super Readers!? :-)
If you are an author with an active project, get mine and I’ll get yours!
Remember, if I reach Quill, I will match the amount of money that people have invested in me and Mission 51 with a donation to the Ronald McDonald House Charities and their mission to help families with sick children.
Mission 51 is ready to launch. All it needs is YOU!
Thank you for your support! :D
Chapter 2
"What?! What did he say?!"
"He said you are insane, father." Owen replied.
"No! No pain! My ears are ringing, though!" his father shouted back at him.
"You should have waited for my brother, Lord Atrin. As I originally counseled." Dua hooked Owen’s father under his left arm and helped him to his feet.
"I used too much of the substance, that was my problem. But it worked! A bit more…energetically than I thought, but still this is a good experience! We. . .
Chapter 3
It had been a good sermon. The people had been fervent in their singing of the hymns. The Sanctuary had beamed with the dozens upon dozens of flaming candelabra. And above it all in the pulpit, the Arch Bishop stood with his arms outstretched welcoming them into the kingdom of God. Yes, it was a good sermon – the lay people and priests in attendance had all agreed. The nobility had shaken bowed their heads as he passed down the central aisle between the rows of polished wood. . .

Quick Update! I am at about 90k in words, and will be at about 120k by the 1st! So I am thinking it’s time to get excited! I’m going to finish this darn thing by hook or by crook!
Then once it is done, it is time to think about this campaign? Have you told anyone about this project yet? Have you followed and perhaps not read? Well, either way, it is time to start reaching out to those in your networks. Together we have a chance to get this book published, but most of all I need you all!
As for all the authors following this project, remember that I would love to reciprocate, reviews, recommendations, and could possibly use some beta readers if you are interested. Anyways back to the grind!
Cheers!
I’ve been writing since 6 a.m. I’m looking forward to delivering the manuscript to my five beta readers in just a few days. It feels good to be moving with some real momentum.
I know you get a lot of email, Inkshares-related and otherwise, and it’s probably difficult to keep track of the myriad projects you’ve followed, especially one like mine where the updates are seldom but ... if you can muster some of that attention for which there are a million different stimuli vying, and give some of it here ... it would be an immense help for you to spread the word that Disintegration is ... ahem ... coming together ( :P ) nicely and that it’s worth ordering.
We’ve been hovering just over 400 orders for a while. It’d be really welcome to break that mark and start making progress again. If you’ve ordered already, please take your belief in my book and encourage at least one other person to order a copy for themselves.
If you haven’t ordered, send me a Direct Message and let me know what else you need to be enticed.
All right, now it’s time for a nice, big, second breakfast (ham, eggs and cheese on tortillas with arugula and hot sauce, a cup of tea, some yogurt ... I wish I had some toast and cherry preserves, but I don’t) and then ... more writing!
