Rejoice! ‘Tis the holiday season, and I am feeling ultra-uber-benevolent. Over the next two weeks, no less than five different titles of my fantasy repertoire will be free for grabs on Amazon Kindle. Anywhere between 2-3 days, each book will star with zero cost, up for grabs. You should, plus review the books, because you never know when a new contest will come up, and that means gadgets and prizes.
They say any publicity is good publicity. Especially if that publicity comes from an old, established and well-respected authority like Publishers Weekly, via BookLife, a child website of this trade, dedicated to indie authors. Well, they had a stab at Prince Dietrich, and the review confirms it. I write grimdark.
Ladies, gentlemen! Brace yourselves. The end is nigh! I mean, come the first day of December, the Dedoimedo 2016 contest concludes. What is this all about, you may ask, intrigued.

He’s just a prince that says that he’s the one, but King Ulaf hates his son. If you never thought you’d see a Michael Jackson song quote used so fabulously in a blog post, THINK AGAIN. Well, my sweet little prince is getting even more attention. The latest, IngeniousCat has taken my handsome nobleman for a proverbial ride, and she seems to have enjoyed it.

Children of the Internet, prophets, readers, fans, and friends! Nothing warms my heart more than thermonuclear reactions, and failing that, when someone puts me under a spotlight. Since I have a highly developed sense of narcissism and histrionics with a dab of self-diagnosed megalomania, USI and a keen love for the stage, being called to attention by others, in a good way, is a great boon. On a more serious note, but not by a lot, I have not one but two author spotlights for you!
Ladies, gentlemen, princes of this world. The sequel to The Amazing Adventures of Dashing Prince Dietrich has been committed to paper. Fair and square. In its glorious entirety.

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.
