Kickstarter Update 1

I have some good news and bad. First the good, Kickstarter marked The Robin Hood of Couches as a project they love! The bad is that I broke my leg and am going to go to surgery on Monday. No, I’m not joking. I slipped on ice and busted my tibia. So now I get metal plates to become more machine than man (ok, so maybe triggering airport scanners for the rest of my life) How will this affect the project? Maybe some delays but nothing too serious. Either way, the break has gotten in the way of me promoting as much as as would like. So even though we aren’t at 25%, I’m going to give out a free book anyway. The Teristaque Chronicles are free on kindle until the 17th!

If you haven’t yet supported the Kickstarter, you can do so here.

There are also some other projects going on at Kickstarter by some other great authors. Check it out here.

If you want to help me spread the word, tell three people who might want to be a part of this Kickstarter. They’ll love you forever and ever and ever and ever until you escape from their basement.

Thank you,

Aaron

For just $25, you’ll get a physical copy, an eBook of ORION and The Robin Hood of Couches, a never before released short story, and your name at the end of the book. There’s even more rewards for those who want to be in the book as a character!

And guess what? I want to throw in something extra for all of you. If we get to 25% funded by next week. I will make every story in the Teristaque Chronicles free on kindle!

If you want to see it happen and get some free stories. Tell three people who might want to be a part of this Kickstarter. They’ll get a “kick” out of the book (pun intended).

If you are located outside the US, there is a $14 shipping fee and $6 for inside. I wanted to make you aware because I know I have a lot of folks who support me from all different parts of the world. I attempted to negotiate a better price, but ultimately couldn’t do so. I wanted to at least let you know.

99 cents for a limited time

Please welcome M. Black, and you should check out her book Electric Gardens. It’s 99 cents for a limited time!

What would you say is your interesting writing quirk? Gosh, good one. I love to write on my bed with no one around. I guess my quirk is I can’t write as well with people around me. I need privacy.
In one sentence, tell us all about Electric Gardens. Ripped from family and thrown into a Tin controlled Compound twelve years ago, Lexi019 now believes her father is still alive outside, and she befriends a soul-searching Tin to fight her way out of the prison.
What inspired you to write the book? I love future technology and robots and asking what our world will look like in the future.
How long did this one take to write? About three months.
What’s next for the Electric World series? ELECTRIC GRIDS. Out now! This is a four book series. They are all finished, but the last two books won’t come out till January 2019. This is a relaunch after leaving my publisher Creativia.

What have you learned about writing now compared to when you started? Wow, great questions! I had no idea what I was doing when I first started. I was just a bottle of enthusiasm and passion. But now I know so much about promoting, and book covers, editing, formatting, character ARCS.
What’s on your solar powered iPod in the post apocalypse? Steve Perry’s Don’t Stop Believing!

If you could travel through time and space, what would be your top destination? I’d like to check out the hype of Mars for myself 😉

Tell us about future writing projects. I am done with my next book, a kind of Goonies meets Enders Game, and is currently entitled DRONE WARS. I hope to release it by the summer of 2019. It is really fun!

Help Me Get Published and Get a Free Book

I’m going to do an experiment with my next book called Life 2.0. I’m going to give away 100 copies for free before it’s even finished being edited. You will get to see the raw story from my fingers to the screen. What I want from you is your feedback. Read through it, tell me what you think. You can comment on this post or contact me from the Mailing List and Contact page to the left.

Also, by getting one of those 100 copies and reading through it, you’ll help me get a chance at a publishing deal. The site I’m using takes those 100 copies to see how many people read through it and shared it with their friends, and it analyzes its publishing potential.

Once all the copies are gone, that’s it. You’ll have to wait months to get a copy.

Here’s the description:

Each time Orion dies, he gets a second chance at life. He has lives where he is a Roman, a Knight, and even a soldier in the Vietnam War.  However, another immortal he has nicknamed Stabby keeps trying to kill him in each one. He wonders why he has so many chances at life until he meets a Princess that needs saving and that Princess also appears in all of his lives.

99 Cent Burritos

timeburrito_kindleIt’s July 4th! And for all you Americans, it can mean many things, like beer, family, and fireworks! Oh, there’s that whole signing the Declaration of Independence thing too. It can also mean watching Will Smith battle aliens and wondering why every American President can’t be like Bill Pullman.

In celebration of Independence Day, Pete has decided that July 4th-7th his journey through time will only be 99 cents! A buck burrito? How can you go wrong? Maybe you already have a copy of Time Burrito but your friends don’t have one. Why not get them a copy for only one dollar! Just click the “give as gift” button when you go to purchase here.

That’s not all! I also want to give you something free just for following this blog. In this story, you’ll notice that I was extremely optimistic about when you’d see shipping drones in the skies. But when I wrote it, I thought it wouldn’t be long, and I still don’t. Dates aside, I think it’s a good story about the dangers of automation. Enjoy your free copy of Living Material Inside – Open Immediately.

And as always, if you like what you read, please leave a review!
