Hello all! Things are going well... 

"First on Mars" now has several reviews. I want to thank each and every one of you that left a review! Michael, Stephen, Joy, and Joanna, thank you!

I’m still plugging away at the book. It’s coming along nicely although still not ready for prime-time. I’m still moving things around, renaming chapters, adding more detail, etc. 

"First on Mars" is only FOUR orders behind the book above in the contest and seven behind the next! If you haven’t yet pre-ordered, what are you waiting for? And if you have, please help me out by recommending, reviewing, referring people, or all of the above!

Meanwhile, here’s something pretty to look at:

Hello followers of “Hiding Among the Stars”, thank you for the support.

I’ve been putting off doing this because it feels a bit awkward, but it needs to be done. I’m shutting down the funding for this project for now. I’ve set an end date for five days from now. After that point, this book will go back to “draft” mode and any money you’ve put towards this book will be refunded.

What happened is that the Geek & Sundry hard-sci-fi contest happened. I felt that it was a great chance to gain attention for my other partially written book, “First on Mars,” and I was right. I don’t have enough time to split my attention between two books currently so I felt it’s not fair to continue funding this one.

It’s not the end. I do intend to get back to finishing this book and trying again with a redoubled effort to get this published. When I first started I had just joined Inkshares and had no idea what I was doing. Now I have a slightly better idea ;-)

In fact, I’ve posted Chapter 4: Wodin (a five minute read). Take a look if you’re interested. It was just gathering dust on my hard-drive.

Thanks again for all your support! Don’t give up the Search!
