Update on Upcoming Book, Return to Red One, and Attempts at Viral Marketing

Return to Red One, the final part of my three-part pirates in space trilogy, is mostly written. I have one chapter left to write and it’s not a very long chapter at all. After that, I should have the rough draft completely finished. With the ample free time I have now and for the next few days, I expect to have the rough draft finished either tonight or early tomorrow.

After finishing the rough draft, the next step will be to go through and edit everything. And with the aforementioned free time on my side, I expect to have all of that done in a matter of days.

In preparation for the book’s upcoming completion, I went ahead today and put up the pre-order link on Amazon.com. I set the release date to April 22nd, which is just under a month from now. Normally I would see this as a rather ambitious date, but considering the free time I have on my hand right now, I don’t see this as being ambitious at all.

Here is the description:

When a powerful technology capable of giving long-lasting life is discovered to be hidden on Red One, an ocean-covered planet home to pirate-like savages, parties from all across the galaxy will flock to claim it.

Vexa Corp, the Governor’s Navy, Sea Scorgers, Ellen Milsen and her friends, and the mysterious Crosshair Pirates will soon converge in an all out war for the planet. Meanwhile the mercenary, Boltoc, still hunts Ellen MIlsen, intent on claiming his revenge.

The War for Red One comes to a dramatic end in the third and final act to the Pirates of Vexa Prime trilogy.

 

Pretty exciting, right?

In the meantime, I’ve also been playing around with doing some funny videos to promote my books. This is what the young people at Geico call “viral marketing”.

I’ve made a couple silly videos already. You can see them here:

Cooking in the Microwave: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eM9iTdmzOgE

Will these videos get any views? Probably not. But regardless, I have a lot of time and so I’m having fun with it while I can. You can expect more of these silly videos in the next few days.
