Author spotlight: me, me, me!

Author spotlight: me, me, me!

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!

Dedoimedo 2016 contest – Win an Ubuntu tablet

Dedoimedo 2016 contest – Win an Ubuntu tablet

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.

The amazing proof is here!

Hear, hear. The physical proof for The Amazing Adventures of Dashing Prince Dietrich has arrived at my doorstep, and boy is it amazing! The book looks tip top. Not too thick, not too thin, just the right amount of pages. Fancy colors and fonts, a pimp-dope cover, and chapter styling to die for. Soon to be yours.

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.

Prince Dietrich goes forth

Prince Dietrich goes forth

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!

The Amazing Adventures of Dashing Prince Dietrich

The Amazing Adventures of Dashing Prince Dietrich

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the title of the brand new book that I intend to publish in the coming months. It is totally unrelated to The Lost Words quadrilogy. Moreover, I am inventing a whole new genre. Fundark. Or grimfun. Yep. Now, as to our protagonist. Imagine the perfect hero: handsome, tall, courageous, loves his father. Meet Prince Dietrich, the exact opposite.
