Joseph Asphahani liked the forum thread, #?? Most Influential Reader (New Inkshares Ranking Feature)
Very cool new feature @Thad Woodman! I’m wondering what metrics are tracked for rankings. Care to shed any light on your Inkshares algorithmic machinations? :)  

For those wondering WTF I’m talking about, if you click someone’s profile (like this one) you will see a little orange  box stating their influential reader rank. (I am #22 Most Influential Reader) pretty interesting!

I’ll be curious as to how this impacts the Inkshares site AND am wondering what other new features Thad has in store for us!

    Wednesday Update:

    So I just want to say that I’m thankful to everyone who’s shown support, in whatever form it’s taken, whether in the form of a pre-order, recommendation or a review it means a lot.

    Whether or not I reach the quill goal is another matter. It’s completely possible. But frankly I don’t live in a big city with lots of opportunities to self advertise.

    I know it takes a lot. But I ask with everything that I have, to please spread the word, whether in the form of Facebook [that book that’s full of faces] Twitter [that blue bird that twits] or even Reddit [that place where insane obsessives dwell *looks in mirror* AHH!]

    Any help would truly be appreciated.

    As always take care, peace and love.

      Joseph Asphahani liked an update for Pilot X

      Quick Pilot X Update

      So things are progressing well and the best thing of all is we have an official publication date!

      Pilot X is set to come out March 14, 2017. 

      Your early support and patience will definitely be rewarded.

      I met with the fine folks at Girl Friday Productions last week to talk over the plan and we’re in the process of settling on cover art. Very excited. The visual style will be a big departure from my video, I promise, Heh.

      THE EDIT!

      Got the first edit back from Clete with some excellent suggestions. Very excited that one of the suggestions was not "hmm, you should start over." So that’s positive! 

      Actually the book is in better shape than I expected with some areas that need clarification and mostly concentrating on keeping it friendly to new readers. So I’m 100% confident this is going to be a better book than it was before. I sent my first pass back to Clete yesterday.

      RANDOM BOOK FACT

      If you were at a party on Alenda you might find yourself eating a creamed farragut pastry and a bottle of Kreistner’s Malt .

      Thanks again for your belief in and support for this book! I wish it was March already.

        Borehole Bazaar: A Vow Unbroken
        Surviving abuse leaves no soul unscathed, and this is especially true of Ptielieren, an elite elvish bodyguard involuntarily integrated into an aversive-heavy culture. Strength can exist absent a ringing victory and weakness does not signify defeat.
        Joseph Asphahani recommended The Vatheran Prologue
        L.V. has already committed a million words (A Million Words!) to this series. Some truly great visual writing here. Give it a read.
        The Vatheran Saga: Prologue
        Book 1. Dark secrets, forbidden love. Time-Travelers, Aeons and even Death himself. This is a blend of Science-fiction & High-Fantasy written in a way that allows the reader to create their own story. A trove of lost history.
        Joseph Asphahani commented on an excerpt of The Vatheran Prologue
        Damn right. I like how this ends. An already very violent chapter concludes on the promise of more violence. Good stuff, my friend!
