Several days back, due to my endless benevolence, I decided to offer both The Betrayed and The Broken for free, for just one day. It turned out to be a very fruitful day, for both you and me. Anyhow, without too much blathering, let’s check out the results.
I am feeling sort of benevolent, so you will be getting my books, The Betrayed and The Broken, for free, for one day only. Both the first and the second book, respectively, of my epic fantasy series The Lost Words will be available for a free Kindle download on Wednesday, September 18, from midnight sharp all the way to the last minute of that day, Pacific Time.
As you most vividly recall, two weeks back or so, I conducted a giveaway on Goodreads, which allowed pretty much anyone to submit their names and enter the lottery, for a chance to win one of the ten signed copies of The Broken, the second book in The Lost Words series.
Hello friends. Well, I am running a free book giveaway on Goodreads. It is available from August 14 to August 21, and all it takes for you to enter the giveaway for a chance to win a signed copy of The Broken, the second book in The Lost Words series, is to hop yonder and exercise some mouse clicks. Shouldn’t be too demanding.
I will not bother you much this time. We are going to have a fairly short article today. Anyhow, The Broken, the second book in my epic fantasy series, The Lost Words, has receives its maiden reviews on Amazon. Two to be exact, with the first one being sort of a placeholder by a happy reader telling us she will read more. Not bad.
Long time no write, so here’s a cushty little update. It’s been two months since I have declared the last book of the series to be underway. Indeed, two months later, book four is approx. 40% complete. I have already written 22 chapters, with approximately 90,000 words all total, so we have a fairly decent daily average of about 1,500 words a day. Not bad. But it gets better.
Hi guys, some good news. The Kindle edition of The Broken has been released. And while Amazon are still setting up some of the fine details here and there, the book is available for purchase and use, at a very affordable price, I might add. So if you’re interested, and you very well should be, please hop over to Amazon and do your thing.
Remember that song by Sabrina, Boys Boys Boys? Well, it’s the same thing here, really, only completely different. Anyhow, after several weeks of waiting, some bureaucracy delays, some more waiting, a bit of hustling, pushing, shoving, and arguing with various clerks, I finally got my promotional shipment of books. They are here, the handsome load some 50 kg in mass, or weight, if you will. This means the moment the Limerick competition is over, I will be mailing the books to the lucky winners, as well as the last year’s brave participants.
Well, it’s a simple decision really. I have reduced the prices of both The Betrayed and The Broken, so more people get the chance to buy the books and read them, you know. Now there’s such a thing as a minimal price, which must cover the printing and shipping costs and such. In turn, this means effectively limiting the print distribution, so it won’t include some of the less popular third-party stores and libraries, but I think it should be worth it. While I cannot compete with the standard mass market paperbacks, the discount is still rather handsome.
All right guys. Here we go. Two free chapters from The Broken, book two of the series. This should give you a relatively good idea what the sequel is all about, as well as massively spoil the ending of the first book, since a few very monumental things happen on the very first page. In the very first sentence of the first chapter. So I beg you, if you have not read The Broken, do not be tempted to scroll down any further. You have been politely warned. Cheers.
