Biggest month evar!!! This month was launch month and The Conjunction finally went live. All my pre-orders went through, and I've seen a few individual others picked up as well as plenty of page-reads in KDP, which tells me that at least some people are pretty happy reading it through. I also got my first pre-order for book 2 (which I suspect may be my dad - thanks dad!) :D Speaking of, my cover artist ( Burning phoenix covers ) put the finishing touches on the cover for book 2, as well as giving me some A+ content that I have yet to upload, which means that my book 2 King Tide went live for pre-order. I've updated my author website (through Nerdly) here: Taryn East Writes to add both my new books, as well as moved a few pages from the blog there, eg my Reading List I officially joined IASFA because now I am officially a SF/F author! I've started getting back into writing (after a couple of months of solid editing only) and have picked up Tink's backstor...
Hi folks, Wow I've had such an overwhelming start to this year I haven't had a chance to catch my breath. With starting a new full time job; and kidlet starting school; a neck injury; and my sister's upcoming wedding... Life has been a bit full-on and I'm only barely getting back up to speed now. So, my apologies for not keeping up with my usual schedule, but I've had to do some re-adjustment to my personal expectations. As such, I've made a hard decision - which is to postpone the release date for King Tide. With the original due-date being in June I still have a couple of months, but I'm nowhere near ready for that (especially with my sister's June wedding). I feel like if I push myself try to get it out, as per the previous timeline, what I'll end up with will be a rushed/half-arsed product that will not be as good as it could be. So I'm going to push back the release-date by at least several months. Probably until November. That will gi...
If you didn't know, November is NaNoWriMo a month of hectic writing fun in an attempt to reach 50,000 words by the end of the month, and I participated, and "won" (I made the 50K... just barely) :D I haven't quite reached "the end" yet, so I might keep at it for part of December too, in the hopes of finishing up the prequel I've been working on. I've also finished and launched The Conjunction in paperback on amazon! So go get it, if you like dead-tree format! :) In due time (ie the next couple of weeks) I'll eventually get the author copies I ordered, and I plan to sell signed copies through my main website. Note: if you buy them direct from me, I'll make a slightly larger royalty than if you buy them from amazon. Also if you buy them from amazon, I get a slightly larger royalty than if you buy them from other distributors. Finally, despite the huge difference in price, I don't make any more off paperbacks than I do off ebooks...
