Eric H. Heisner liked the forum thread, Historic sci/fi fantasy, GREAT style

Hey, it’s not my book but I wanted to turn people on to a pretty incredible historical sci-fi fantasy that I got the chance to preview.  It presents an amazing depiction of one of the most brutal periods of warfare in history. The Builder’s Spark, by Thomas Maur, is worth taking a look at and supporting.  I got the chance to speak with the author about the direction that the book is going, and I think that the series of books that he intends to create will cross genres. His storyline will be drawing in audiences that enjoy a strong female lead character and Steam-punk style biomechanics as well as a World War 1 style of warfare where honor isn’t a thing of the past. He hinted at some serious plot twists that will make for great story telling in the future, as well.  Look him up, follow his book and feel free to ask him about his plot devices. Pretty epic and worthy of mention, in my opinion.

        I am a new author and I’ve been inundated with great reviews from friends and family. Unfortunately, the kindly jaded views of friends and family are about as useful as pipe bumpers on a Geo Metro, so I’m looking for some more brutal and armchair type of criticism. I’m not a professional anything, and actually take constructive criticism pretty well, so please feel free to have at it! As with all second guessing authors, I’ve caught and continue to catch editorial issues and technical glitches in my writing. That being said, I welcome the same from anyone else who realizes that when brass checking a 1911, you see the shell through the slide as opposed to the ejection port.  *forehead slap*

      I’m wondering if there’s some sort of online hub (aside from this forum here!) where Quill writers can connect to one another and share advice! One of the things I’m noticing here is that there’s not a ton of guidance for us once we hit our goal and are in the process of editing our MS, hiring cover artists, and most importantly - finding creative ways to promote our work. Because we don’t get a huge boost from Inkshares in this capacity, I’d love to find some sort of board where we can help each other! And/or if one doesn’t yet exist, find other writers who’d like to start one. :)

        Eric H. Heisner liked an update for The Madness of Mr. Butler

        Sorry to have seemingly spammed you all on this rainy Tuesday morning (in Northeast Ohio, at least, it is autumn now. Whereas last week it was winter and it was spring the week before that.)

        I am writing to let you know that, although I am still waiting for production to begin, the book still exists. I have sent the first two chapters of the submitted manuscript for your reading pleasure. I will send more in the future. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Please reach out to me with any questions or if you are curious enough to read more. If you have preordered the book, I see no reason why you shouldn’t be able to read any bit of the draft that you wish. (Hint-hint, to those of you who haven’t preordered...)

        The book is still planned to be released next February from what I know, but consider that date to be fluid. I am still working on the website and bonus reading material for all of you lovely backers. 

        And fellow authors: please reach out to me for any needs. We are a community, and if we can help each other out then that community only grows stronger. 

        This is me: mhaase75@gmail.com

        Tweet at me if you’d like: @keepwritingmike

        That is all for now. 

        Love to all,

        -Michael

          Eric H. Heisner liked an update for Fury From Hell

          Good Morning, Good Afternoon, and Good Evening Everyone!  I am super excited because I’ve uploaded 5 more chapters so you have a total of 6 chapters to read -- Wahoo. :-)

          The entire book is completed but I am open to feedback and comments from you to make this story better.

          More exciting news -- 10 books have been pre-sold!  Readers, I thank you all for your support!  Please share this book/link with your friends, family and colleagues so that this book can be in your hands later this year.

          Okay, ready for even more better news?  I am an approved vendor for ICON 32 happening March 17 - 19 on Long Island, NY.  It’s the Northeast’s largest nonprofit scifi convention!  Check it out here: http://blog.iconsf.org/.

          Hope to see some of you there!

          In the meantime, Ta-ta for now.

            Eric H. Heisner liked an update for Space Tripping

            Psst... hey... hey you... yes you, my wonderful supporter of Space Tripping... you want to hear some really cool news? 

            Audible has officially signed a deal with my most benevolent publishing overlords at Inkshares. Space Tripping is going to be adapted into an audio book!  I know! Crazy, right? 

            But wait, the fun stuff doesn’t stop there. We’ve got a couple of pending events that you should check out. If you’re into Twitter, I will be taking over Young Entertainment Magazine’s official twitter account for two hours this Thursday March 2nd (4-6pm Eastern). I anticipate many a hijink to occur. 

            Sidebar: Is the singular of hijinks, "hijink"? You know, for the casual miscreant who doesn’t have time for a full days worth of mischief. They can sneak in a quick hijink during lunch hour. Anyway, where were we?

            We’’re also working on some signing and launch events at bookstores in both the greater Chicago and Cincinnati areas.

            Currently, we are booked (pun very much intended) at the Barnes & Noble in downtown Naperville, IL on March 18th and at City Lit Books in Chicago on March 31st.

            I will also be getting interviewed on the Nick Digilio show (WGN Chicago) sometime in the near future. Be on the lookup for future updates. 

            You can always check out spacetrippingbook.com for additional details as they evolve. 

            Thanks again, friends.
