Shiver me timbers. Today, Dedoimedo celebrates 10 fine years of operation. Neat. Smooth. In fact, so smooth, he’s a smooth operator. In the past decade, this site has loaded some 70 million pages to its unsuspecting readers, offering knowledge and humor, mostly the former. Time to celebrate. So what’s in there for you?
Dear readers, we have a new contest ahead of us! The format is very similar to the two previous contests that we had, the first one in 2013, which resulted in a lucky winner getting a Nexus phone, as the Ubuntu Phone was not ready yet then, and the one in 2014-2015, where I finally handed out an BQ Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Phone to an entrepreneuring contestant. This year? The Ubuntu M10 tablet.
Ladies, gentlemen, and princes of the world! The Kindle edition of The Amazing Adventures of Dashing Prince Dietrich is available for immediate mass consumption. So if you were containing and curbing or possibly even kerbing your enthusiasm, waiting for the digital version, contain no more.
The Amazing Adventures of Dashing Prince Dietrich has been published! The silliest book of the year is here, and you are more than welcome to grab yourself a copy. Paperback for now, with Kindle coming in a week or two. The name of the series? Woes & Hose. How about that.
While you are eagerly waiting for the imminent release of the most awesome gunpowder slash renaissance era book, ergo ipso facto Dietrich, to be unleashed unto the world, you may want to consider participating in a Goodreads book giveaway. The Forgotten, the third volume in The Lost Words series, is up for grabs. Third book, ergo ipso facto three copies.
The publication work of the most amazing adventure ever undertaken by a prince, one named Dietrich no less, is chugging along nicely. Interior design, an avalanche of spelling and grammar fixes, and of course, the kickass cover art stuff. Designed by the legendary Anton Kokarev. Please take a moment to bask in the glory and finesse. Yes, you may consider this an update on the book progress.
Lo and behold, hold your horses, chariots and steam engines. My no-magic, gunpowder-era, Renaissance-styled, Venetian-flavored grimfun slash fundark novel by the name of Amazing Adventures of Dashing Prince Dietrich is about to take flight. A majestic flight, like an eagle soaring off a cliff. ‘Tis publication time!
Hello, denizens of the Internet. Good news. The Ecotones pro-am anthology, the fourth annual community project organized by SFFWorld.com, has been set free into the wild. It is out there, with fourteen tales of a mostly speculative and fictional nature, created and molded by best-sellers, award-winners and nominees, established talents and up-coming authors. Myself included.
I am feeling benevolent. ‘Tis the holiday season, and that means free gifts for all. If you feel like reading some decent fantasy-themed prose, you might want to visit the Amazon domain in the coming two weeks. Starting December 16 all the way till New Year’s, the Kindle edition of the four books in The Lost Words series will be free for download, one after another, a couple of days at a time.
And now for something completely different. A guest post. Normally, you would not get its kind here, but since we’re all one happy family over at SFFWorld.com, and we have another anthology coming out soonish, we have a blog tour, and we’re sharing each other stories. Only yesterday, Andrew Leon Hudson hosted mine. Today, I am happy to introduce Kurt Hunt, contributing author in Ecotones. He’s here to tell us why he submitted his world shattering story to SFFWorld.com’s fourth anthology.
