Would just like to announce we’ve received an extension! Our campaign was suppose to end tomorrow but Inkshares was gracious enough to offer a 60 day extension pushing our new Pre-Order deadline out toward the end of July! I don’t think we would have been able to do this without the explosion of pre-orders we had last week. Now we’re a mere 40 Pre-Orders from hitting our publishing goal. I want to thank all of you for your efforts. We’re almost there you guys!!!!
May the 4th be with you!
I hope you were able to spend today with that special nerd/geek in your life and celebrate one of the greatest Space Operas ever created. For me, it was hanging with this little guy (see picture below). My daughter flat out refused to be in the picture. Oh toddlers.
Dinosaurs, Calvin and Hobbs, Star Wars. It was a good day.
Lots happening on the book front!! We have a lot of new followers, and I want to say THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!! We really appreciate it! I think you’ll enjoy what’s coming next week!
The Warbler did a wonderful piece about the book. See it here: http://goo.gl/xXGtQf
One thought before I sign off.
Hemingway once said, "there is nothing to writing, just sit behind a typewriter and bleed." I’m starting to really understand that now.
My hat is off to every single author on this site. You are amazing.
Writing is hard. Invest in some good band-aides.
500 preorders! We’re 2/3 of the way there!
THANK YOU!
Getting this book fully for-real published with in-store promotions and everything would be a killer dream come true for me. And I thank each and every one of you for having faith in this book!
I hope you’re enjoying the sample chapters. If you haven’t checked them out please do. They’re non-spoilery to the main events of the book but give you key insights to the story.
I can’t wait for all of you to read the whole thing too. Pilot X was created by me in the 1990s for a parody news article on subbrilliant.com. He has grown quite a bit since then when he was a crashed pilot of a mystery aircraft in Colorado. He is no longer a crashed pilot of a mystery aircraft in Colorado.
He is so much more. And he’s soon to be real character in a real published novel thanks to you.
SO WHAT NOW?
We need 250 more preorders over the next 45 days to make this happen.
That means, if I have done my math correctly, that each of you needs to convince just half a person to preorder Pilot X. Are you willing to do that?
Come on, its just half a person? They won’t even see you coming! If you approach fro the half without eyes.
Anyway PLEASE spread the word and PLEASE know you’ve made my day every time I get that email saying you pre-ordered.
You’re the best.
Cheers,
Tom
