Eric H. Heisner liked an update for The Walls are Closing In
The follower count is approaching 70 for The Walls are Closing In, and the book has received two great reviews, which I have shared below. A special thank you to Bill Osinki and Deborah Munro.

Thank you also to Eric H. Heisner, Joshua Griffith, G.A. Finocchiaro, Sara Polk, Michael Cooper, and Shawn Dove for the recommendations. Recommendations are incredibly important because they place The Walls are Closing In in the "Recommended by Inkshares Readers" section on the front page of the Inkshares Website, thereby increasing exposure.

I plan on launching the Pre-Order campaign in mid-January and publishing Chapter 2 at the same time. Stay tuned!

What the Critics Are Saying

Bill Osinski

"This is future shock delivered in real time and with max voltage. The most chilling part about "The Walls are Closing In" is that the walls really are closing in. We have just endured a presidential where truth was discarded and ignored, so it does not seem like such a leap to enter a world where truth, beyond what the powerful deem it to be, is unknown."

Deborah Munro

"Castle has crafted an eerily believable future for America that is reminiscent of George Orwell’s "1984". From the giant wall insulating America from the rest of the world, to the propaganda on mandatory, controlled television, to the cameras monitoring the protagonist’s every movement, I was chilled. This is a fascinating read about how 75 years from now, everything could be totally different in our world."

    Eric H. Heisner liked an update for Illegal

    Inkshares has had problems with refunds on other campaigns and I wanted to make sure everyone who bought Illegal has received their money back. The refund should have gone out on October 24th and reached your account a few days later. If you were not refunded please reach out to hello@inkshares.com and let them know. Also let me know and I’ll stay on their case.

    On a related note, many of you have been asking if they should re-order. The answer is no. The team has done a very poor job handling their mass-refund mistake, and there are refund issues with at least one other campaign so I would not trust them with money at this point. I’ve lost a lot of trust in the platform and the team running it and at this point they would really have to go above and beyond for me to change my mind and still let them publish my book. That seems unlikely to happen at this point. Save your money.

    I’m going to push them to give me a real answer next week about how they plan to resolve this. If they can’t tell me or it doesn’t include them going above and beyond, I’ll walk away and seek better options.

        Eric H. Heisner liked an update for Dax Harrison

        HEY THERE READERS!

        As you know (or if you forgot), DAX HARRISON was nominated into a new Inkshares competition known as THE LIST 2016. From now until December 31st, the amount of new readers I acquire will determine if I land a FULL publishing ride (as opposed to the "Quill" light publishing deal I originally reached). That means additional perks like marketing support, physical bookstore distribution, cover design, etc.

        Currently, Dax stands in 7th place according to the contest page. Though that number may be corrected in the near future (My actual total reader count stands at 274). Either way, I would looove to see this number go up.

        I know it’s been a long ride for those of you who have been with me since this thing started last year. But if you get a chance to do me a tiny favor this holiday season and just take a minute to share this book with another silly sci-fi loving friend, I would really appreciate it. On Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, in a personal email, smoke signal, telegraph, messenger raven, whatever you like. Just tell them it’s a fun little story with laughs and spaceships and explosions, all for the price of 2 Grande Pumpkin Spice Lattes! (Actually cheaper if you include the tax!)*

        *$10 for the ebook, $20 for paperback/ebook bundle

        And for those of you who are following this book (there’s over 500 of you total!) but have NOT bought a copy yet, let’s chat a minute.

        "What can I do to get you into your own personal copy of Dax Harrison today?" (Imagine that in a sleazy used car salesman voice)

        Seriously though, I would love to hear from my mysterious followers. Feel free to direct message me on Inkshares and say hi. Who knows? Maybe I just might be able to convince you to give old Dax a chance. ;)

        Happy Holidays everyone! (*slips on plaid blazer, combs hair, adjusts pinky ring*)
