Whoa! My fellow thinking beings, what a ride the last few weeks have been.

In case you haven’t heard, my second book, A God in the Shed, on Inkshares has funded successfully and will be seeing publication in a few months. It’s pretty exciting stuff but unfortunately I have no time to dwell on it. What else is taking up my thoughts?

DragonCon is starting its own awards. I won’t bury the lead; I want to see The Life Engineered nominated. I mean, I’ll be happy if any Inkshares book gets a nomination but obviously I’d be deliriously happy if The Life Engineered got a nod in there. So this will fusion reaction powering my communications with you for the next little while: Let’s get Inkshares a Dragon Award. Have a look at the nomination page and please consider putting in The Life Engineered for the Science Fiction category. While you’re there, here are some suggestions for other categories if you feel like supporting the Inkshares platform:

Fantasy: Asteroid Made of Dragons
Horror: An Unattractive Vampire

Click here for the nomination page.

Next up: one of my friends is nearing the end of her funding campaign and she is so very close to her goal of 250 pre-orders. I know I’ve been asking a lot from you guys lately, but if you have a few credits rolling around or you’re just curious about her book, check out A.C. Baldwin’s The Traveller’s Cup. It’s a great book and A.C. is a tremendously promising author and a tireless artist. She deservers this.

Finally, while I’m still asking for favours, currently The Life Engineered is sitting at 80 reviews on Amazon.com. That’s awesome and I love to read the comments and critiques of readers. However, if I can get to 100 reviews, magical things start happening on Amazon. If you’ve read The Life Engineered and enjoyed it, consider leaving a review on Amazon. It helps me more than you can imagine and I’d love you forever.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go prep the funding campaign for Arch-Android.

Hello friend!

It’s with dark joy in my heart and the lingering effects of celebratory scotch that I come to you this day.

First, I have an announcement! The winner of the ’I Want to Kill You’ raffle has been decided. He’s accepting the ’honour’ of having his likeness murdered in A God in the Shed and while I can reveal his identity, we have yet to discuss the manner of his demise. Congratulations to Brad Ludwig! I can’t think of a better dude to murder... in a book. Fiction. I’m not really killing Brad.

In more serious business, I want to ask for your help again. Don’t worry, your wallet and credits are safe this time, however...

Last but not last, I have yet another favour to ask, but this time it’s for my friend A.C. Baldwin. She’s is nearing the end of her funding campaign and she is so very close to her goal of 250 pre-orders. I know I’ve been asking a lot from you guys lately, but if you have a few credits rolling around or you’re just curious about her book, check out A.C. Baldwin’s The Traveller’s Cup.

Thanks friends. Inkshares has already sent me documents to fill out so we can prepare the first production meeting for A God in the Shed. The wheels start rolling. The book is being made.
