It’ll Appear Tomorrow

Basically here’s the deal. I’m not done yet, and this is my 18th wedding anniversary. While I’d love to finish this right now, I have this feeling that my wife will be mildly* unhappy if I completely ignore her for the next few hours (my normal policy for Sunday nights).

Other people would probably have planned for this and finished already. Those other people aren’t me.

* “Mildly” == “Very” in this context.

Blog Tour

Hey folks…

I just thought I’d pass along this link: http://fmbblogtours.blogspot.com.au/2012/07/tour-schedule-legion-of-nothing-rebirth.html

Basically it lists many of the sites that I’m appearing on as a result of the “blog tour” I’m doing to promote the book. I’ve done  a few readings that I’ve put on a Youtube, a couple blog posts, interviews, and also, there are a few posted excerpts of the book.

Plus, if you want there are a couple giveaways associated with it. There’s the Goodreads giveaway which I’ve mentioned before, but I’ll mention again: http://www.goodreads.com/giveaway/show/28765-the-legion-of-nothing-rebirth. That’s for a print copy.

There’s also the other giveaway my publisher’s doing: http://1889.ca/2012/07/the-legion-of-nothing-blog-tour-begins-win-a-kindle/

Basically, you can win a variety of things, ranging from a LoN t-shirt to print book to Kindle plus ebook copy.

You can also sign up for my mailing list, and be updated every time there’s a new LoN book or other update related to my writing: Legion of Nothing newsletter. That said, signing up for the mailing this through the giveaway link counts as 3 entries into the drawing, so if you’re on Facebook, you might as well do it through the 1889 Labs link.

OK… Almost done with the self-promotional stuff.

Finally, if you feel the urge to write me a review or simply rate the first book (which amounts to “The Beginning” through “1953”, please do. It’ll help the book be more visible, and increase chances people will buy it. For what it’s worth, even if you’ve just read it on this site, you’re still qualified to rate it. It’s very similar (though I’d like to think it’s improved).

Shutting up about this stuff now…

Ready or Not: Part 3

Haley barely let him finish before jumping in. “What do you mean, ‘no?’ You’re not going to do anything. You just told us so, and we can’t leave her there.”

Guardian’s jaw tightened, and he said, “We’re going to do something, but we’re going to do it right. Even if you know where she is, and it isn’t a trap, they’ll still be expecting an attack. I’m not going to throw high school students up against Rook and possibly more of the Nine’s people. If anything, I’m going to send in experienced people. Time to stop talking, and give me her location, I’ll get as far as I can.”

Somewhere in the back of my mind, a part of me wanted to remind him that some of us were college students, but I doubted that arguing technicalities would get me anywhere.
