I honestly didn’t think I would have a reader update so quickly, but here I am. In 24 hours, I’ve had 26 preorders and while it is upsetting I didn’t hit 250 immediately... THANK YOU!
I attempted to record a new video for TSM homepage on Inkshares, and, well, you should just see what I had to work with. In the video I attempt to tell people that I have already finished the book and am currently working on the second draft right now. That means when we hit the funding goal, the book will follow shortly after.
I’m planning to get this done before November 2016 because I will be stationed to a ship out of San Diego and deployed who-knows-where doing who-knows-what (I’m an IT Technician, so it will be a lot of, "Have you tried turning it off and back on again in a classified way?").
So many people have already recommended and shared on Twitter, Facebook, and Inkshares, it has made my day. I need everyone’s help getting the book out to the people I don’t know. For my part, I will continue to comb Inkshares, leave reviews, pre-order when I can, and keep working, but if the first 24 hours are any indication, this is going to be no problem.
Sweet Dreams,
Stephen Carignan
P.S. If you saw the video, Emma says hi.
All, thank you for the support. I have uploaded Chapter 4 of Dirt Face. Follow Dirt Face through an intense LSD trip as the irreversible scars start to form and shape this character for better or worse.
Dear Friends
I know what you are thinking: two updates in a row!! What?!
I’ll be quick. I just want to make you aware that today is International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHOT)
I know that many of you are strong supporters of the LGBTQ community, so I wanted to share with you the website where you will find information regarding this day of action.
Also, I want to remind you of my own initiative within Inkshares to support LGBTQ authors and allies: Write Out Loud.
By joining Write Out Loud, every month you will be supporting the work of many talented authors in Inkshares. You also will get a book to add to your collection.
The mission of this syndicate is not only to support authors in their path to publication, but also to point readers interested in novels with diverse characters toward books that offer this, by giving our seal of approval.
That’s it. I promise I won’t bother you for a while.
Have a great week!
