Time Burrito 3: The Boy King of Carradine

While writing Time Burrito 2, I had an idea for a story. A lot of the time, those ideas get written down in a text file and stored on my hard drive and maybe never go beyond that. This one was different. I kept thinking about it, talking to my wife about it, even sometimes having dreams about it. This story had to be written.

I literally stopped writing Time Burrito 2 because I was so obsessed with the idea. It all came from a comment I made to my wife over breakfast, “wouldn’t it be funny if people fought holy wars over whether or not the messiah was named David or Dave?”

Surprisingly, she didn’t roll her eyes and change the subject, as she often does when I talk about stuff that I think is hilarious but the rest of the world may raise their eyes at best. We came up with this scenario where there was a nuclear war, and some stuff from various Davids survived like a David Bowie record, or David Duchovny’s autobiography. Then what if thousands of years in the future, the people created a world religion out of our David stuff.

Then what if they find DNA on the Statue of David that just happens to be a random tourist named David, and decided to clone it? We pictured this rush of clergy, mobbing their messiah fresh from the cloning vat, and asked him the question that has plagued their society for years, “It’s it Dave or David?”

That’s when it hit me, what if that person was not David but Pete? That’s when I knew this story had to be a Time Burrito story, which is good news for you. Not only are you going to get the Bison Agenda very soon here because I finished it after pounding out Time Burrito 3. But you’re also going to get The Boy King of Carradine! That’s two Time Burrito novels! Coming out very soon.

You can get yourself a collector’s edition of all three with your support on Patreon, but don’t wait! You need to pledge by 10/25/2020!

Give a Time Burrito Shirt this Holiday Season

timeburrito_kindlePeople have been asking me about getting that Time Burrito artwork on tee-shirts, hoodies, coffee mugs, etc. Now you can get them and save 15% on the order! Stop by my shop Aaron’s Stuff for official Time Burrito Gear. In case you need the 15% code to enter into the cart at checkout, here it is: welcome-100236443 Offer only valid now until 12/5/17.

All the stuff is printed by a company called Spreadshirt which is a member of the BBB, and they take the lion’s share of each sale. But if you do buy something, that will give me some funds to kick off my next project. I also wasn’t sure if people wanted my name on their shirt, so I have two versions, one with my name, and the other with just Time Burrito. I will see how they do as to whether or not people want the full book cover on the shirt or just the fun stuff.

And because I don’t want to leave you without free stuff and deals. The Kindle edition of Playlist of the Ancient Dead is on sale for 99  cents from now until 11/25/17, and Kal’s Revenge is free until 11/25/17.

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!

If You Enjoyed Time Burrito—

Time Burrito has had a fantastic release, and I have all of you to thank for it. I really appreciate the support this book has seen. The free promotion was a resounding success of over 5000 downloads, and reviews seem to show people are enjoying the book. If you want to help, consider leaving a review yourself, or tell a friend about the book.

If you’ve read, shared, and loved Time Burrito and are itching for more, I would consider Playlist of the Ancient Dead. It’s a horror, science fiction, comedy with my most unusual premise. If you want to read Time Burrito’s sister book, check out Othello and Zombies. I wrote both of those at the same time. Finally, if my books with a comic edge are in the immortal words of Graham Chapman “too silly,” I would suggest Atmospheric Pressure. It’s a straight up Orwellian thriller that is nearing completion of a sequel.

Thanks again, you rock and/or roll.
