Brian Marsden commented on The Dead Wizard
So I tried a second set of twitter messages, and evidently I’m either already labeled a spammer or it set of some kind of posting sensor on the twitter. All it said was "Support diverse point of views in Fantasy Lit. Pre-order today @inkshares.com --- Goblin lives matter!"
Which do you  think?
I’m betting spam alert.

    Half way through the drive.
    I hope the sales reflect my lack of marketing skills and not the quality of the writing. I suppose I’ll have to start giving away spoilers to draw interest. But don’t worry if you want to be surprised I’ll label those bits. Though I suppose that they aren’t really spoilers so much as details that the characters aren’t aware of. Hence their confusion about what some objects.
    One thing they aren’t aware of but, that the reader will notice is that their swear words include a lot of human swears. Partly because they live around humans, Khoma being a human run kingdom, and partly because goblins have encountered and absorbed the knowledge of some "modern" humans.
    Even the humans aren’t aware of that anymore. Pretty much only the dragons know the true history of things. Though those that lived through it are loathe to talk about it. Even with other dragons. They have their scars to remind them daily of when  the humans arrived again.

    Buy my book! Please. :-)

      Brian Marsden sent an update for The Dead Wizard

      We are now one third the way into the pre-order sale drive. With less than sixty days to go!

      The pre-orders are off to a slow start, but an end rush is probly more typical. I have sent out appeals to the couple of syndicates the Dead Wizard falls under theme wise, and I optimistically await their decisions. I am planning to spend some of the weekend finding fantasy fan groups on facebook and and posting there. Like most of the Goodreads clubs though, postings are often limited to members only, but I’ll see what I do to persuade the owners.

      I thank those of you that have been mentioning the Dead Wizard to your friends. The more people we can get interested in the story the better the chance of taking off. If there is anything I can do that might entice your friends let me know too.

      And if you know and artist that  might be interested in doing some cover art or other promotional illustrations, send me their names and site addresses.

      Thanks for reading. There will be more to come.

      PS- I know probly isn’t a word yet... Yet!
