Dear friends, backers and followers.

I thought I should update you on the progress of Lies and Deception.

I am done with edits now, and manuscript is almost ready to send to Inkshares. I am currently working on a new cover for the book. Once this will be done I will send that lovely package to Inkshares.

Now let me introduce you to a non Inkshares project. This was the short story I had for the Anthology ; Too Many Controllers.  After we learned that the book wasn’t going to be published by Inkshares. I  decided not to let that  Short Story at the bottom of my hard drive.

I have my short story, Hardcore : Spinning Reels, on : 

Amazon, Google Book , Ibook, Barnes and Nobles and Kobo.

0.99c for the ebook, here is the link for the Amazon version . 

But the most important thing is once you have read it please  leave a review , as reviews are crucial for us Authors to generate more sales .

that’s it for now.

I go back working on the new cover for L&D  .

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to give you a brief update. Wake up Call is getting a new Cover. This one I made myself but a local artist saw my book and liked it. Now she wants to give it a better look that may help it get noticed. I am working with her right now and will let you know when it is up. 

As always, Thank you so much for ordering my book and I will see you later.

The Walls are Closing In has received 200 preorders within the first three weeks. Thank you, thank you, thank you! And one more for good measure. Thank you!

First things first. I owe all of you a couple of things for helping me cross the 100 reader and the 200 order thresholds!

Using a random number generator and a spreadsheet of my first 100 readers, I have selected two winners to either have a minor character named after them or select the name for that character.

The winners are Robert Batten and K.L. Noon.

Congrats! Let me know what you would like to name your character!

As promised, I have also uploaded a mid-book excerpt to commemorate reaching 200 preorders. Experience Patricia and Rexx’s first steps into Zone 36, a town sealed off due to fracking-induced pollution and destruction, and meet my favorite character, Oliver.

The campaign, as it sits now, has a view of the full publishing contract with few obstacles in the way, but still has some hiking to do. If half of those who are following the book on Inkshares, but have not placed an order yet, order, then The Walls are Closing In will surpass the Quill light-publishing mark.

I have been working tirelessly to cross the Quill milestone early. It is important for a variety of reasons. It signifies that the book is happening! Though I am aiming for 750 preorders and a full publishing contract (think marketing, bookstore shelves, public book signing, cover design, and complete developmental edits), passing the Quill mark (think print-on-demand, ISBN, and Amazon listing) means that there will definitely be a book. Advanced promotion to reach outside of my already-tapped circle will then become much simpler, as those in the book-review world are understandably more willing to promote a sure-thing.

Thank you all again for rallying behind me and this book. A special thank you to both my grandfather Allen Ahearn and aunt Beth Fisher, of Quill and Brush, who shared The Walls are Closing In with their broad community of book lovers!

More milestone perks to come! At 300 orders I will release a new novel trailer with teasers.

Hello Adventure Readers!

Quick bit of news - If you’re a Western Fan, there is a BookBub promotion going on for the ebook version of my 2nd Western Novel "T.H. Elkman".  Get it on Amazon and other online retailers for $1.99 for a limited time.  I am usually notified of these promotions beforehand, but yesterday I checked out the title on Amazon and the book had shot up in ranking to #109 out of over a million books.  Not bad for a Cowboy writer with a passion for seaplanes!

https://www.amazon.com/T-H-Elkman-Western-Novel/dp/1510711864/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485622097&sr=8-1&keywords=th+elkman

No release schedule update for "Wings of the Pirate" yet.  The small dedicated staff of Inkshares has us on the radar and will be moving it forward as soon as they can. 

More info as I get it ...

Sincerely,

Eric H. Heisner
