I’m writing this post from Leading Edge (the internet is down at my apartment), so I don’t have much time, but I did want to take care of a few items of housekeeping.<\/p>\n
First, my next guest post in the Genesis Earth blog tour is up, this one at Charles Millhouse’s blog<\/a>. \u00a0Charles is a fellow sf writer whom I met on the Kindleboards<\/a>, and the post basically explains my writing routine since last year. \u00a0Of course, since I’ve technically been unemployed since graduation, my routine is a little wacky, but I think you’ll find the post interesting. Check it out!<\/p>\n Desert Stars<\/em> is coming along. \u00a0I took yesterday off to finish drafting the revision notes, but I’ve still got the last three chapters to go. \u00a0It’s going to be awesome, though–I’ve got so many ideas for how to improve the story. \u00a0Many thanks to all my first readers for your feedback! \u00a0It’s been immensely<\/em> helpful.<\/p>\n Also, I decided to take down “From the Ice Incarnate” from Amazon. \u00a0I still think it’s a good story, but I don’t want someone to buy Genesis Earth<\/em>, love it, then buy the story and feel ripped off. \u00a0Also, I think I might have more luck with my short stories if I send them out to print markets instead. \u00a0I’ve submitted “Decision LZ1527” to Escape Pod<\/a>; if it sells, hopefully that will drive readers to my ebooks.<\/p>\n And on that note, if you’ve read Genesis Earth<\/em> and enjoyed it, I would like to ask you to please post a review on Amazon. \u00a0I don’t want to be one of those guys who secretly boosts his stats by coercing people to write fake reviews, but if you did enjoy the novel, I would appreciate it a ton if you would take the time and share your experience. \u00a0At this point in my career, that’s probably the thing that would help me out the most.<\/p>\n So anyways, that’s what’s going on here. \u00a0Hopefully, the internet will be back before the weekend. \u00a0See you around!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m writing this post from Leading Edge (the internet is down at my apartment), so I don’t have much time, but I did want to take care of a few items of housekeeping.
