So Who Wants an ARC E-book?

That’s right, this post does what it says on the tin.

Book 3 is so close to coming out (delayed oh so long much to my frustration).  I wanted to make sure that this was as good a quality product as I can get it.  I’ve had some very helpful people and editors and beta-readers and people to fish me out from under the bed with coathangers to help me get this far.

Actually not all the delays were caused by me as much as some things didn’t happen during the last editing/formatting stages that I was hoping for, so, there have been adjustments made.

88

I really do try to not be this guy… but I am.

So, here’s the next step.  I’m going to do a staggered rollout.  First step, once I am sure that the formatting isn’t broken, and things haven’t gone so awry that I have to pay extra money to get them fixed, I’ll be sending out ARC copies of my ebook to those interested.  Remember, this will be in exchange for spreading the word via honest review on your site/blog/vlog if you have them, or on some other social media, but definitely on Amazon.  So of course, if this is something you want to do, make sure to say you were given a free advance copy for an honest review.

After I’ve given you all a week or two to take a look, I’ll do an official ebook release.  If any typos are caught that I’ve missed (the things are like roaches.  I swear!) they’ll be corrected through the proper channels.

Then 2-4 weeks after, the print copies will come out, and we’ll get them on the shelves of your local bookstore.

How can one become an ARC reader?  I’m going to make it a 2 step process.

1. Sign up to my blog here.

2. Send me a message through the site saying you want in.

Let me know what kind of a social reach you have if you are a reviewer or where you plan to share your reviews.  I want to see them too. 🙂

This info will not be used for a marketing list, except to see if you’ll want in for the next book.

That’s it.

Then when the book is ready to send, I will confirm with you where I am sending this copy, and then it’s up to you to do that voodoo you do so well.

Mind you this is the middle book of a story arc, but you should be able to get enough context that you won’t need to have read the first two books.  Otherwise, you know where to find me and ask questions.

Speaking of which!

I have created the Resonant Point Discord Channel.

https://discord.gg/pxft5EF

If you use the app, (the phone app is great too) you can come here and hang out.  I’ve also tested the link and the browser works too.  You must sign up, of course, but it’s free. I typically can be found nearly every week streaming Guild Wars 2, and we also have voice channels in which to chat.  Updates happen there much faster, as well as conversations on various subjects in the text channels.

It’s rated PG of course.  We want to be safe for little ears to be in the room if you’re using speakers.

So that’s what’s been happening.

I can’t wait to get this in your hands, so start signing up.  This may be ready to happen before Oct 2019 begins!

See you all soon.

P.S. I’m dying to start writing Book 4. So many things have finally come together.
