DEAR DAX HARRISON READERS, FANS, PASSIVE FOLLOWERS, ETC...
https://www.inkshares.com/books/bad-medicine-slay-it-queen-Hello queens, friends, supporters, stalkers and curious people.
Today is one of those rare Friday nights when I actually have plans, so I’m announcing the winner early!
The next queen joining the cast of Bad Medicine: Slay it Queen! is Miss Peaches Putnam (AKA Holly Masi)
Peaches Putnam is a shoe obsessed queen, known in the drag community for her Cirque Soleil-style performances.
Congratulations Holly!
Remember you can win too. Pre-order, send me your drag name and you can be a character in the book.
Also, I have new concept art. This time from French comic artist, Pier Caltafer. The way he imagined Bad Medicine is very Jinx Monsoon look alike. I’m also loving the post-apocalyptic New York City.
Seen my book through the eyes of so many diverse artists gives me life!
Finally, I will be posting the second chapter this weekend. It is a meaty one and full of surprises. I hope you like it.
Have a fierce weekend!
Lore Update:
Deep space mining has become a crucial part of humanity’s expansion across the stars, and Exotech is the undisputed leader in the field. The surveying expedition to Tantalus 13 is but one of hundreds in one of the most lucrative ventures in the galaxy.
With thousands of probes scattered across the galaxy searching for valuable new worlds to exploit, it’s perhaps inevitable that Exotech would be the ones to stumble across a find like Tantalus 13. For mining, Tantalus 13 is barely worth the effort, yet Exotech clearly believes otherwise. How much do they know about what lies beneath its surface? What is it they expected SCARAB might find there? For that matter...are they ready for it?
Find out now when you pre-order Tantalus Depths!
FROM THE BLOG DIARY OF EMILY HUNTER
Entry #2: July 17, 2013
So this week, the assignment is to be a little more forthcoming.
Yeah, assignment. This blog isn’t entirely my idea. And while I am getting credit for listening to my therapist and actually starting it (not something she was entirely sure I would do), the goal is to not hold back. So I guess I should re-introduce myself.
My name is Emily Hunter. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. Specifically, my files say "auditory and visual hallucinations and nihilistic delusions." Currently I am in partial remission. (How’s that for forthcoming?)
In simpler terms, I am fucked up.
Now notice that I’m not saying the government is out to get me. I am not currently wearing a tin-foil hat. Schizophrenia is not something that is very fairly represented in popular media. We aren’t all rocking in corners, babbling incoherently, and screaming at shadows. (I have lived with those people though, and some of the stories they tell are better than anything you’ll ever see on TV.) I can hold a conversation, I can hold a job. I keep track of my own medication (Clonazepam twice a day for anxiety, clozaril, one in the morning, four at night, and one shot of haloperidol and a blood draw every two weeks. The chloropromazine gave me a fever when I was 21 and put me in the hospital for a week and a half.)
Here’s what they don’t tell you about anti-psychotic medication: It’s good for your mind, but shit for your body. It makes you feel drowsy, achy, constipated, and just generally miserable.
I seem to be breaking records for forthcoming. Hi, I’m Emily and I can’t poop sometimes. Nice to meet you.
So yeah, sometimes I see things. Sometimes I get confused and think strange thoughts. The meds help, as much as I hate to admit it (and especially since Dr. Harper is reading this. Hello.) Although I do hate the way they make me feel, but I guess it’s better than some of the fucked up nightmares I used to have. Sometimes while I was awake.
Sometimes I would see thi
Okay, per the rules I can’t delete anything, but I don’t have to keep typing either. That’s enough forthcoming for today.

Hello Knightmares!
We have 7 days left in the campaign, and we’re sitting pretty at 260 orders. If you’re still looking to buy a book, grab one now while I’m still offering free stuff!
In the meantime, check out my next book, VEXED, that is still in a draft phase. I am going to take my time with this one, but check it out as I start to ramp up content, post excerpts, and put together a trailer in the coming months. If you liked The Knightmares, VEXED will blow you away.
In the meantime, please take a look at Mothering- The Game! It has under a week left and is SOOOOO close to hitting its campaign goal! It deserves to get published!
Hey Campers!
Happy Wednesday!
I wanted to share this new interview I did with Inkshares author Alastair Luft. This one focuses more on my writing process.

Current sales 659/750! I am so close, but sales have slowed drastically. Please continue to share my book with your friends and convince them to preorder. Remember, you can preorder up to ten copies to give away to friends, and if you become a "Super Backer" you will have access to drafts of the book before anyone else!
Thank you so much for your continued support! Have a wonderful evening!
