First and last stream

Hello,

It's my birthday!

I've been working up to having a book release party on twitch with a practice this afternoon (for my b-day), then Friday (for when patrons get the book), then when the book comes out on Amazon on Sept 2nd.

Here's the twitch link.

But I'm currently feeling crushed. My internet solution hasn't worked. :( I'm currently waiting to trial a second option, but I don't have high hopes. :( :(

Which means this friday and next friday might be the only streaming parties, if at all. Oh well. That's what you get for living on a country road, I guess.

Anyway, let's cheer myself up by hyping my next book!

It's a romantic comedy called "The Fart of True Love", currently available for pre-order on Amazon and it will be in KU. If you're an apple reader or kobo or non-amazon person in general, you have until Thursday night to join my Patreon and get the book sent directly to your inbox on Friday!

Here's the Amazon link

The cover was partially AI generated using MidjourneyAI. Part of my streaming was going to be showing you how to do us the AI and taking your examples! If you want to hear me excitedly setting this up and full of hope for the future before being crushed like a bug, you can watch last night's set-up stream.

Here's the patreon link.

What's the comedy?

So we have a cupid, Cesar Shale, who basically learns to be human. It's a typical 'alien becomes human' kind of trope. Which was fun to write.

Then I bounce around between a few POV's which I got a kick out of. If you read my memoir and enjoyed the humor in Book Six (after the Big Fight where you, the reader, know more than pretty much all the characters including myself), then you'll enjoy the bounciness of this book.

It's a fast-paced narration. I noticed that while doing the final edit (which I would have finished today if not for the internet problem!!!!).

One of our heroes, Aiden, is in the television business and deals with quite a few big egos. I had fun writing them.

Also, it was fun to hint that just about everyone Cesar meddles with ends up falling in love. Maybe. Maybe not. I don't want to give too much away, but it was fun to tease the possibilities.

This is a third-person, clean romance. People do end up having sex, but it's fade-to-black cheekiness. It started out clean and I just kept it going through to the end. That was the vibe, sorry! My next short stories in October for Halloween will have some graphic sex, for those of you who need it! ;)

You can read the first three chapters of "The Fart of True Love" on my substack blog. Sign up to receive my new release newsletter in your inbox. One email per new book, depending on what you sign up for.

Here's the first chapter on my blog.

Happy reading!
Chris

PS: oh, and I also had a hope of doing a book club type thing every once in a while. The first book was going to be The Hourglass Throne by K D Edwards and his earlier books. I loved the series and can't wait to dive into the next book!

But it's on hold. :( :( :(

So I'm both happy to present a new MM romance novel, but sad to lose streaming because I was excited to do it and it's been motivating me for the past few months.

Yours,
Chris
