Greeting Destiny-followers,
Back from Thailand where I did a lot more reading than writing. And what a pleasure that was. There really are some good books in Inkshares-land. I mentioned a few previously, but I’ll do it again given I can now link across. In no particular order:
Rune of the Apprentice by @Jamison Stone - I motored through this. A captivating story by an author who knows how to write an action scene! (you can order and read now)
An Unattractive Vampire by @Jim McDoniel - Urban vampires meet the real thing! A wonderful interpretation of the modern vampire myth. (you can order and read now)
An Adventure with Dada by @Michael Haase - I’m having a blast with this. Well worth getting. (in pre-order right now – throw Mike some support)
How to Get Run Over by a Truck by @Katie C. McKenna – this makes you laugh, cry and shake your head all at the same time. If you want to put your life in perspective, this is a must read. (you can order and read now)
And on to me! Destiny Imperfect is having a jolly good battle to remain in the top three. I could really use your support. To show how sci-fi influences the real world, I’ve included a picture from the recent wedding I went to. I’m the one with the Klingon Baldric (sash) – and no, it wasn’t a theme wedding … unfortunately! Don’t forget to pre-order and share the Destiny Imperfect love!
Cheers,
Peter
“Words to the heat of deeds too cold breath gives.” Just wanted to quickly give a shout-out to my homie Billy Shakespeare. That’s from his latest novel “Macbeth,” now trending on inkshares.
Please tell me you didn’t fall for that. Only a slice of the above is true; that quote is indeed from Macbeth. It is one of my all-time favorites. If I’m reading it right, it means that saying is not the same as doing. So in the spirit of DOING, I wanted to give an ACTUAL shout-out to two dear friends of mine who ARE DOING IT, whose books truly ARE trending on inkshares right now.
The books of Mr. Zachary Tyler Linville and Mr. Richard Heinz were mentioned on Publisher’s Weekly top anticipated books released in Fall 2016. THIS IS HUGE NEWS! I’ve personally had a few peeks into their stories and I can vouch for this praise. I’d say “these books will be great,” but the truth is, I already know they are. If you haven’t invested in a copy of them, what are you waiting for? (Saying “Publisher’s Weekly’s endorsement!” is an answer that doesn’t hold up any more, bub.)
There have been other, newer, projects that caught my eye on Inkshares also. If you can click a mouse button more than once, I’d highly recommend you do so HERE (“Destiny Imperfect”) and then HERE (“The Glorious Denial”), in no particular order. Read the chapters you find there. They’re good. Good enough to spend money on. I say so from experience.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a scene to write in which an owl fires cobalt-colored lightning bolts at a fox while he clambers up the side of a landmass hovering mid-air because of some distortions in his world’s magnetic field. Some weird, complicated, science-or-sorcery stuff in “The Animal in Man”, folks. In Billy’s spirit of DOING, I #AmWriting. Stay tuned.
The final manuscript has been approved with Girl Friday Productions!
I even learned what a Flueron is recently.

I choose the Illuminati Eye triangle... because they area always watching.
Tinfoil hat aside: I’ll be at Wizard World in Chicago August 18th thru 21 with a booth. More details on that coming soon.
I have more art from Lizzy Perez! This one is a bit more laid back, Mike and the crew playing some games after a night of demon hunting
This scene directly ties into an Anthology I am part of with the character Akira. You can learn more about the Too Many Controllers in the current Nerdist contest by clicking right: Here
Lastly, there is one final... final thing: If you are following this book and haven’t dived in yet. Here it is. The last chance to be entered into one of 7 raffles for a demon hunter kits, tarot cards, and artwork. We need... 8 more people!
So call your friends! The Angels are coming! The end is nigh!!!
Wednesday night I headed over too Berkeley for the Trekonomics signing event. Had a great time listening to people talk Trek and got to meet the author himself. Very inspiring to meet a very successful Inkshares author. Even got my copy Signed!
