Shout Out - Diabolic Shrimp

If you're constantly on the look for books to read, I'd recommend checking out Diabolic Shrimp. Joshua Grant, the creator, is constantly collaborating with authors to release books to the public. The purchase of his novels sends revenue to great causes, and once a month he'll give away another author's book for free. Check out the author pages at the bottom of his Avid4 tab!

Distribution

The Battle for Liberty is now available on Barnesandnoble.comAmazon.com, and Lulu.com! Although I will be eternally grateful no matter where you buy my book (or ebook), Lulu.com does give me the greatest profit. The other two keep most of my earnings.

And when you do read and enjoy my book (here's to hoping), please review it! All three sites have review capabilities, and you can also review Liberty on Goodreads.

Liberty Publication

MY BOOK IS READY FOR THE WORLD! Right now it's only available on Lulu.com; distribution is slow in catching up. Let me tell you why that's a good thing. 1. You don't need to make an account in order to buy my book. 2. Buying my book through Lulu means that I get a much bigger profit (Amazon takes almost all my earnings) without you having to spend any more money. Both the ebook and the paperback are available through their site. The ebook is $6.99. The book is $25, and I'm sorry for that. There's a minimum sale fee by which I must abide. But if you get the paperback, you also get my wonderful drawings! Unfortunately, the ebook format doesn't work well with photos. Anyway, thank you for making it through this excessive post, and happy reading!

Colorized Photos

Hello everyone! It's been a while, I know, but that's because I've been working very hard on my book. I really want it to be ready by the end of the year. That's the issue with having no deadline; it takes forever to publish.

I wanted to share with you a few colorized versions of my drawings. I've been trying to solidify the settings used in my novel, creating their own separate identities and giving you the best possible product. I am a visual person, so in order to complete this in full I colorized my photos. Some of them looked awful, I'll admit, but the color helped anyway. Some of them, however, turned out rather brilliant. Here are my five favorites. Enjoy!
