So It’s been awhile since my last message, but I’m still alive! I hope all of my U.S. followers had a good Thanksgiving and everyone else had a good...errr...Thursday. Since my last update a few more followers have popped up and, while I am thankful to all of you new folks, I’ve finally decided to go through Amazon to publish Battle Flag: The Road To Hell. I still need to read up on all of the stuff that goes along with that, like formatting and what not, but until I’m ready to submit my manuscript there I’ll keep my project page up here and I will listen to any critiques or comments you have for the sample chapters that are here. I hope that once it’s published you’ll go grab a copy.

As far as my membership on Inkshares goes, I’m going to still lurk around and support projects I like and I am even going to keep my syndicate memberships going, but I don’t think I’ll be able to pull off publishing a project of my own here. So I’m going to do what I can, as time and money allows, to help out other folks.

Anyway good luck to everybody on their projects, it’s been fun.

It’s taken me nearly three months, but I am proud to say that the latest draft of this novel has been submitted to the editor.

If you recall, during the spring 2017 I was invited into the first Cohort for Inkshares novel production. Part of that process was looking at the story from the bones up, and during all the work I did for the cohort I realized that the current title of the book doesn’t really fit what it’s become.

Initially this was a graphic novel, a sort of retooling of Akira except with mechs. As I continued to write, the story morphed into something deeper, an exploration of what it means to treat technology as a sort of religion, and what would happen should it actually become one. As such, Isidore’s journey became much more tightly focused on her relationship with the Church of Technology. And the title of the novel, one that used to be about this fun sort of sci-fi romp, didn’t make sense anymore for her story.  

As I wrote this latest draft (number 4), I started thinking about the title and if it still served the story. I came to the realization that it did not. Therefore, I’ve decided to change the title of this book. Without further ado, I would like to introduce you to the new title: Sister of the Circuit. As soon as I made the commitment to the new title, I got super excited about how it connects to the themes of the current iteration of the novel.

Now I step back in the editing queue to wait my turn to see what Inkshares thinks of the book. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. I’m going to pass the time working on another project to give myself some space from Circuit.

Happy Thanksgiving supporters of Crow’s Gambit.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Greetings, Faoii! Exciting update!

Our army’s first major reading is coming up on December 6. This will be The Last Faoii’s first public appearance since the launch party-- and thus the first one I expect for new people to attend. Reviews and orders have grown stagnant, and this might be the perfect thing to get people interested in our fight again. The holidays are coming, and I KNOW that The Last Faoii would make a worthy gift for many people out there-- but they need to know about it, first. Thus, I need YOUR help to spread the word. I’ll be raffling off 3 signed copies of the book at the reading. Come to Beautiful Montana and win one!

Hi everyone, just a quick update before we hit the Thanksgiving holiday.

First, I am delighted to announce (and tremendously thankful) that "Devil You Don’t" was selected by Inkshares’ Staff Syndicate as their pick of the month for November! 

THANK YOU VERY MUCH to all the members of that syndicate for their support. I truly appreciate your enthusiasm for this manuscript, and am really looking forward to getting it into your hands as an actual book.

What does this syndicate selection mean? Well, it means that between now and December 31, I still need to get about 60 copies pre-ordered (before the selection that number was much higher!). I’ve had a few verbal commitments that I’m excited about, but I can’t just kick back and put my feet up. After Thanksgiving, I’ll be announcing another giveaway and updating my "about" page on Inkshares to officially kick-off my homestretch efforts.

I’ll send another update when all that’s ready for prime time.

Wishing all of you who celebrate it a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving with your friends and families. Please know that you are all on my list of things and people that I am grateful for!

Best,
Susan

Greetings Followers,

I contacted Inkshares today and let them know the refunds were not going out on schedule, but I’m getting word that they are now being received. If you have not yet received a refund, please contact hello@inkshares.com to clear up any issues.

My book did not win any deals, which is probably a good thing since I will have more creative control by self-publishing the novel once it’s complete. I’m aiming for next year sometime so hopefully it won’t be too much longer.

Thanks for the support!

Michael.

All, thank you for the support you gave me with Frost! I just wanted to let you know I’ve started a new project here on Inkshares.

I wanted to let you know that my book, MURPHY’S LAW OF THE JUNGLE, is taking pre-orders on Inkshares! Publishing this book is something I’ve been thinking about doing for a while, and with your help, it can happen.

Here’s the link to my book:

https://www.inkshares.com/books/murphy-s-law-of-the-jungle?referral_code=a7938274

Inkshares will publish my book and distribute it to bookstores when 750 copies are pre-ordered. I’d love your support!

Thanks guys!
