Hi all,
haven’t been in touch for 2 weeks, but it doesn’t mean i haven’t been working. 616 orders we are, with 28 days to go (wow). This is where I need you all to step up, we are only 134 orders short of 750 --never thought I would be saying this (!)
So, please please, forward this pre-order link https://goo.gl/3bTKYB to all your friends. I will donate 3.5$ from every order to the kids at Norwood UK (who really need it) and you get to send me off to Inkshares full publication, g-d willing...
Inkshares fellow authors, if you have extra credits to toss at the cause - I will be grateful just the same.
I thank every single order, they all count. But also wanted to mention Josl, Judith, Ora and Daniella, all placed generous multiple orders.
Once you’ve done with me, please take the time to check my dear friend Evan Graham’s Tantalus Depths, an excellent SciFi novel worthy of your attention. Evan is actively helping me, and had written a fantastic novel - so I wanted to mention him as well.
Finally, it is no secret that for EURO 2016 as always I back the Azzurri (Americans look it up - sorry).. But interesting (and not easy) days are upon us here in England with current events and also the potential Brexit.
So while you all go out there to promote my book (a dash of wishful thinking) join me all with a BIG Hurrah to the Lions in white!! Go England!
Hi all,
A quick "just before the weekend" update:
My good friend Omer Sagiv, who’s an amazingly talented industrial/concept designer and artist (do yourself a favour and check out his stuff at http://www.omersagiv.com) has decided that the old book cover simply had to go. Even though I urged him not to (it is after-all temporary) he went ahead and designed a more "in the spirit of the novel" book cover. I personally think it turned out great - would love to hear your take on that.
By the way, this is not meant to take anything away from Dious’ gorgeous photo that will keep serving as the theme of the novel.
We are currently at 412 orders, which is an amazing number as such, but still about 10% below the optimal figure at this stage. I’ll take the opportunity and thank Auntie Ilana, who joined our forces and started actively finding me readers.
Do you have what it takes to refer readers too? top referrers will get a prize (which admittedly I don’t know what it will be yet - but it will have something to do with the novel).
In case you forgot, the next 38 orders will grant you a place in the raffle of a character named after you!!
Furthermore, if you haven’t already checked James Rasile’s excellent novel Cape’s Side Bay and Brian Fitzpatrick’s ingenious Mechcraft, then you are missing out! Both (not)incidentally are top guys that are actively helping me find readers.
I’ll part with the best weekend wishes, and the usual "this is a great day to order a Spymaster and be part of the patron list inside the book" greeting.
All the best,
Joni D.
