Outer Red Is Going The Distance!

Outer Red - Part One: Off The Given Path has done far better then I expected. Thank you to all who’ve read and enjoyed the story. I’d love to hear from you and tell me your thoughts.

I just started writing the second part and will try to have it out as soon as I can (after all the read through, edits, etc.)

The story will pick up right after the last one.
And if you’d like to listen to “Off The Given Path”- I’m about to release the audible book of Distant Saga Trilogy: A Short Story Collection and it has the full first part as a bonus story.

Check it out on release!

Looking For Five Reviewers For An Audible!

My first audiobook is out and I need - well - reviews, right?

Top ranking On Amazon’s Short Read List

Ok, I know it gets updated hourly....but I was stoked this morning to see Outer Red in the top category! I was #1 till around 8:30am., but I’m still in the top 5 so far. That’s awesome.

Thank you to those that read the story and then ranked it with a review. I’m so glad you enjoyed the first part....working on more, so keep a look out!

I hope this encourages more to do so. 👍

Giveaway Winners!

Congrats to all the winners of Outer Red - Part One: Off The Given Path!

I hope you will enjoy it and come back with any reviews or comments about it. I take good or bad...I understand the process and that most have varied opinions. I'd love to see more feedback that's for sure.

But I won't be pushy. (much) Heh!

Into The Shadow Of Dark has just been completed for Audible and waiting approval. So excited man! It really does sound better with someone reading it in a brooding voice. You just have to get a copy....it will be awesome.

The other book - Distant Saga Trilogy, is also in mid-process....so look for it as well.

Again, I thank all of the winners of the giveaway and please enjoy the story.

It’s the final countdown!

Sorry had that song in my head.

Outer Red - Part One is only hours away till it completes the giveaway! You still might get a copy (not sure how random it does it) so keep trying!

And then once it’s done...I won’t be doing anymore here. I’ve decided this far too costly a giveaway to keep up on goodreads. And while I do thank you for the support and interest, I also would like to keep my costs down.
I’ll probably get the “Yeah, but’s only that much money....it’s good advertising!” No, no it is not. That’s money I could put for gas, my kids, my ever mounting bills.
Free is ok for a few titles, but not every time. I do love writing these stories, I will keep producing them, but I can’t just give them out for nothing. *sigh*

Well, I do hope you enjoy this last one anyways. If you like it and want more....maybe you’ll be willing to purchase the next parts too?


Speaking of buying, the Audiobooks I’m making of Distanr Saga Trilogy and Into The Shadow of Dark are still in full production mode. Once they launch (very soon I hope) I invite you all to give a listen. They sound fantastic so far and the voice actors are pretty close to how I wanted to sound.

Till the next post...

Progress On The Audiobooks

Distant Saga Trilogy is very much into production. I'm hoping to hear the first sample of the produced book soon. I'm so nervious about it...but also excited to hear the finished product.

I'm wondering what all of you prefer - reading a book yourself, Audible books, or maybe both? Which seems to be more appealing to you - the reader...or...uh....listener.

Into The Shadow of Dark is also undergoing the audio experience. I've managed to get a few auditions - many seemed very interested to make this one - the voice work will definately give it that eerie feel I wanted. Again, I'm so pumped to see this completed.

It's gonna be awesome for sure. If it does well, I may do several more short audios like a series....but I don't want to jump ahead of myself - let's see how this does first.

Outer Red - The Adventure Begins!

Just put up a full first part of the book in progress. They're going to be individual stories, but ultimately will be one full book in four parts.

It's a science fiction version of the fables we all know and love. Some of this was sampled in my other book - Distant Saga Trilogy....which I've just revised and placed the full section in that as well. But that's only going to be for the published book - not the ebook that's already up.

Why in parts? Why not just wrte it in full? Well, I do believe that it works in parts....plus it gives me a chance to complete each section since my time is rather limited. The other books I'm working on is a daunting task....and my kids tend to vie for my attention away from my computer.

I'm hoping to get a giveaway on here soon. Some reviews would help I'm sure.

Outer Red



UPDATE - Giveaway about to begin! 1 of 100 free ebooks of this first part!

Distant Saga Trilogy - Sequel Is Happening

Yep. Turns out I'm really hoping to make this a series of side stories while I work on the other novels and shorts. Crazy, huh? Not really. I've been wanting to do yet another version of Distant Saga ever since the last book. I put it on hold because I wasn't sure how the first one would do.

I decided not to give up on it. The first book was a learning curve - now I want keep them going so that I'll have many in a series of DST books. This is my Twilight Zone, my Outer Limits....this is where I want to take the readers on a journey into my universe and explore the stories within them.

Every story is a saga and every journey is an adventure. I'm hoping all of you will join me in it.

A Thank You To Reviewers

I want to take the time and thank those who gave a review or ranking of "Into The Shadow Of Dark", the only way I can grow and improve my writing is by getting feedback by you - the reader.
