Well, hello there...

Wait...what are those words in the corner?

Yes, what you see is really there. It isn’t a figment of your imagination. We have a cover blurb! For those of you that can’t quite see it, here it is in its full glory:

We are gearing up for the promotional/marketing push for the book as well. Hopefully we will be soon locating a great local venue to have an awesome launch party/signing, if you’re into that sort of thing.

For those of you that don’t remember the books publication date is slated for May 3, 2016. But the good news is that the backers will be getting it a bit before that (barring some unfortunate catastrophe). Why is that important, you may be asking yourself... Well, it’s important because that gives us plenty of time to jump start the reviews! In this crowded world of publishing reviews can make or break your book. I will be at your mercy one last time, in desperate need your help. In order for this book to dig its roots in and take hold we must a have a lot of great reviews. What’s a lot? Let’s shoot for a 3 digit number like 100 positive reviews. So that means, about 10% of the people who will be getting a copy. That seems totally doable.

Please, please, please don’t feel obligated to review (especially if you end up less than loving it; email me and tell me how to do better if you feel so inclined). I cannot thank you enough for all you have done to make this a reality. 

I’ll leave you with the following (slightly edited) infograph about the importance of reviews borrowed from my fellow Inkshares author, G. Derek Adams, author of Asteroid Made of Dragons.

Well, hello there...

I see we have some new faces that have followed and some new purchasers as well.  Thanks for that! Time for some updates (fair warning: it’s been a while so there will be a lot).

First, Motor City Chronicles - Book One: Transgressions has recently gotten a GREAT book trailer. Check it out by CLICKING HERE!

It is with mixed emotions that I tell you the final draft of Ageless has my approval and it is with the production team and will be moving to the printing phase very soon. The people at Inkshares and Gril Friday have worked tirelessly to make sure that Ageless is the best book that it can be. 

 That’s it. The words are locked in. 

 Forever. 

 AND EVER... 

 It’s frightening, terrifying, in fact...only because it makes this whole thing that much closer to a reality. Yet, I am still full of excitement and drive to make Ageless into the best experience for both you, the reader, and me. The final thing left to approve is the ebook version of the book.

 Which means we have also finalized the complete cover for the book and it is gorgeous. Check it out.

Wait...what are those words in the corner?

 Yes, what you see is really there. It isn’t a figment of your imagination. We have a cover blurb! For those of you that can’t quite see it, here it is in its full glory:

 "An elaborate story that challenges our inner detective. The intricate plot is a fascinating puzzle to navigate and enjoy." - J-F Dubeau, author of The Life Engineered and winner of the Sword & Laser Collection Contest

 How cool is that? Awesome right!?!? (Click here for my review of his book, The Life Engineered.)

 We are gearing up for the promotional/marketing push for the book as well. Hopefully we will be soon locating a great local venue to have an awesome launch party/signing, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Hello and Happy Friday! 

I hope that you all are doing well, and that you’ve had a lovely week. The wheels have been set in motion to make "How to Get Run Over by a Truck" a real live book! It is so exciting to see how the whole book making machine works.  

Everyone at Inkshares has been absolutely phenomenal to work with - it has been SUCH a joy! I have had great conversations about the cover design, the editing process and also how we’ll be marketing the book. It is all really interesting, and has been a great process to watch and be a part of! I will keep you all in the loop as I get more and more information. 

I also had the honor of being interviewed by the Inkshares blog this past week. In the interview we talk about what inspired me to write the memoir, what was the most difficult chapter to write and most importantly - what I wanted to say to my funders (that’s you!). If you have a moment, I would love it if you gave it a read.

Please end my torture now !

Dear followers and backers.  We are missing 38 pre order... that’s right only 38.  If you haven’t got your copy yet please do so, or if you want to order another one you are welcome to do so :)

There is some very interesting project in the pipeline for Lies and Deception but I cannot talk about it now.

Once again thank you for your support,

Hi readers!
