Friends, Readers, and Sorcerers All,
Just a quick update to say: YOU ROCK!
Fae Child is SIX orders away from securing a place in Quill, Inkshares’ light publishing imprint. I almost can’t believe it. There are five days left in my preorder campaign - the one I started in August 2016 as part of the Geek & Sundry Fantasy contest, without any idea what I was going. Once Fae Child reaches 250+ orders, it will become just the tenth book from that contest to earn publishing. And that is thanks to YOU. I didn’t place in the contest, but I kept going, and look at where we are now!
Thank you so much to all my backers and readers - I couldn’t do this without you.

Greetings everyone! It’s time for some quick... seriously bad-ass news.
Okay; maybe not that bad-ass. It’s actually just an actual booth number for Emerald City Comic Con next week.
DD11.
So if you live in Seattle and want to meet up or happen to attend the con. Let me know. Metal and Drinks will commence.
In other things. Reviews. The book has only come out a month ago from now, but in order for Amazon (or the internet) to functionally count it as an ACTUAL book... I’ve got to hit a certain threshold of reviews. (That’s 100 for those who count. I’ve got 10...) Even if you hated the book, that’s okay. Just... if you support the IDEA of authors writing books... take 5 minutes and leave a review on one of these platforms:
Audbile (For you Audio blokes out there): Click HERE
Amazon (For those who wish to feed into the belly of the beast): Click HERE
Goodreads (For those who are cunning enough to copy and paste a review from Amazon): Click HERE
As always, you can follow me or find me on Twitter @CrankyBolt and I’ll have additional written content for everyone in a few months. I’ve already got a short story about Akira done, but I’m waiting till more people finish the book before I get there.
Do you guys think I should try a video update? Let me know.
~Rick.
Greetings Jackolytes,
The exciting word on the street is that Sync City is now being shipped, and Jack is soon to be out in the wild! If you have pre-ordered a paperback, then you should receive an email from Inkshares telling you the details. From what I can work out, they’re doing it alphabetically according to the name you used when registering with Inkshares. So if you are later in the alphabet, you may not have received the email yet.
If you want a little more information about me and the book, Sync City’s homepage is here. You can also follow my author’s Facebook page here.
If you haven’t jumped on to the Sync City express, then you can do so at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Book Depository. and don’t forget to share!
Cheers,
Peter
Friends!
Quick but exciting update:
Devil’s Call went to the copy editor (the lovely Jessica Gardner) this morning, a mere two months later than we originally thought it would, and the word on the street is I should have her comments in a week or so, assuming there isn’t something terribly wrong lurking in the manuscript somewhere.
The next step after copy editing is proofreading. I will update y’all when that happens.
In the meantime, those of you who have attempted to place orders and been unable to, the site recently went through an overhaul and the order page is functional again.
Thank you to everyone who has stuck with me and this project for as long as you have. A year ago, this thing was 75 pages long and begging for an overhaul. As of this morning, it’s around 200 pages and actually, you know. Looks like a novel. If it weren’t for all of your support, that wouldn’t have happened.
- J.
One month down and two to go. I want to thank the few of you that have ordered Wake up Call so far. We still have a long way to go but if I can find more wonderful people like yourselves I am sure to get at least quill.
Hope you all enjoy the long weekend, maybe curl up with a good book.
