Fantasy Audiobook Review and Giveaway

Audiobook Reviewer has listened to and posted a review of Tarnish: The Complete Trilogy Edition.

The general impression: "This was a surprisingly excellent fantasy coming of age story."  (4.5 stars)

I'm assuming the "surprising" part is because it was so much better than the average run-of-the-mill stuff, not because she expected it to be bad...  

Clicking any of the these hyperlinked lines will take you to their site to read the review.  And if you scroll down, you'll find there's also a giveaway for 5 free Audible.com downloads on the site!  

So why not read the review and enter to win your own 15-hour fantasy adventure?  It's win-win!

Last Week for Free Audiobook

We're closing on the last few days to get registered on my mailing list in time to make the audiobook giveaway.

Click here to sign up.  

Everyone signed up by Leap Year (Feb 29) will qualify to win 1 of 3 free audiobook downloads of either Tarnish or Hungry Gods.

Meanwhile, I started a new job in the Naval hospital this week, in a new department I have no prior experience in, so I'm not getting much writing done.  On top of that, my wife just had surgery and is laid-up, so that means less escape time as well.  Hoping to crank out a few pages today, but doesn't look likely...

I'm working on Deus Ex Machina, which Hungry Gods book 2 -- it's kind of like superheroes meets James Bond in this adventure.  Going to be great fun, if I can get the time to write the darn thing...

Working on the Chain Gang

Finishing out a 60 hour work week and rolling right into a brief (too brief) vacation tomorrow.  About time!  As anyone who got my Conspiracy Newsletter may have read, I've been working a lot of hours in 2016, and not many of them on writing, reading, or hobby projects.  Almost none, in fact.

Speaking of the Conspiracy Newsletter, did you hear that anyone signed up by Leap Year (Feb 29th) is automatically in the running for a free audiobook...?

Despite the harsh chain gang life, I have managed to write the first 3 chapters of Deus Ex Machina, the sequel to Hungry Gods and chock full o' Spitball's next adventure (and misadventure).

I've marked off a few more side projects and updates off my to-do list as well, but still have a ways to go.  One of which is making a new website for Brink's Chaos Theory.  (I'll obviously let you know when that happens.)

Another is to get involved in the Brains to Book Cyber Convention on Goodreads in April.  There'll be a lot of authors and readers participating, so be sure to check that out for freebies, deals, activities, and Q&A sessions online with writers you know and more you're about to discover.

Well, the Taskmaster is cracking his whip. Better get back to work...

Conspiracy Newsletter Sign-Ups and Free Audiobook Offer

There's a lot happening on my side of the universe, and much of it I'm trying to get done before I get swallowed into a black hole.  What the hell does that mean?  For those who don't know, I'm on a countdown to a deployment into the Middle East and trying to tie up a lot of loose ends before I get there, and I'm nearly done.  Obviously, this whole life-altering change of venue will have a big impact on my family and "real" life, which come well before my writing life, so...  A lot of gear-changing going on right now and for the near future.   

For today, I'm just here to post two things of many that have been happening lately:

1. My new "Conspiracy Newsletter" now exists, which you can sign up for in the left upper corner of this blog, and/or by clicking this link.  I can safely promise not to bombard you with emails through this medium, as I will barely have time to write new material, much less mess around with cyberspace.  But from time to time, I will use this as a means of keeping in touch with my readers and those interested in what book is coming next, when something new is out, and with occasional priority offers and deals.

2. Which also includes a first crack at a free download of the new TARNISH audiobook, narrated by the talented Todd Menesses.  In the next few weeks I'll be sending out my first Conspiracy Newsletter and including a chance at a limited number of free downloads, so if you're not on the list yet, I suggest you sign up!

I've also produced a couple more paperback editions of ebooks recently, and also had my most successful book signing event to date just a couple weeks ago, but haven't had time to blog about them.  I obviously have other pressing matters to attend to, which I should actually be working on right now.  So, I better be signing off for now...

But don't you forget to sign up!  Thanks for reading!

A Fantasy Epic Comes to Audiobooks

At long last, my 400-page coming-of-age fantasy adventure TARNISH comes to life as a 15-hour audiobook!

This book was contracted for a long time to a voice producer who was stricken with a bad case of Real Life and became too busy with his day job and family to complete the contract.  But I hold him no ill will for not being able to finish and he and I were brothers by the end.  And it all turned out great in the end anyway, for next I found Todd Menesses, who is a tremendous voice talent.  He's done an amazing job with TARNISH and we're already talking about him doing HUNGRY GODS next.

So if you're into listening to your fantasy adventures, give this one your ears!
