Hey Everyone!
Happy Labor Day weekend. In celebration, we’re once again running the CHARACTER NAME CONTEST. If we get to 150 preorders by MIDNIGHT MONDAY, then one of the lucky people who orders the book between now and that time will become a character in BLUE WATER. If you’ve already purchased BLUE WATER, and you refer someone who does buy the book, your name is in the running as well! If you purchase three copies, your name is in the running three times.
Our last CHARACTER NAME CONTEST winner, Annie Boehnen, is featured in three chapters of BLUE WATER. Do you want to join her in the story?
In other news, in case you missed our last update, the deadline to hit at least 250 orders is now November 14, 2016. We were granted an extension by the nice people at Inkshares, and are very thankful.
Also, another quick note: I’ve previously released the first three chapters at our website, bluewaternovel.com . I’ve rewritten Chapter 3 now, and the new version is now included in the download section at the website. If you read the previous version, check out this newer version and let me know what you think!
As of writing this, we have 54 hours left to get EIGHT MORE preorders. If you haven’t ordered BLUE WATER yet, what are you waiting for? If you have, send every friend you have and get YOUR NAME IN THE BOOK!

Dear Authors,
The end of this week will mark my sixth as CEO of Inkshares. It’s been a long but exciting six weeks with all-time high-water marks: the most-ever new-author sign-ups as part of the Geek & Sundry Fantasy Contest; the announcement of our first venture into horror with Crypt TV beginning this coming Thursday; the sale of the TV rights for J.F. Dubeau’s A God in the Shed; and the exercise of the TV option for Filip Syta’s The Show. Yes, The Show will be a show.
As has been actively discussed in both our emails with you, on the Slack channels, and on the forums, the Inkshares royalty structure was modified last month. I know that my letter to the funded authors has been extensively shared, but some people suggested we share it more broadly, and here it is.
