cornerofmadnessHey All,
I decided to do something a little different and entered my novel Machiavelli Moon in the First Chapters contest at gather.com. It's sort of like American Idol for novels where the fans vote on the chapters and the novels progress to the next round. (which is ironic since i recently said I'm not a fan of 'popularity contest' and begging for votes and I'm not but for the publishing contract prize, I'd be willing to at least mention it once.)
How does this work? Well you visit my novel here Machiavelli Moon Chapter One. Even if you don't want to vote feel free to read. I've sold short stories in this universe in the past. Vampires, Werewolves, Deadwood SD, murder, it might be fun. I'm a little afraid to go look at the comments left, because let's face it this is a forum where people can flame anonymously more or less and feel good about themselves for doing it. I expect it. I was pleased last night when i got the link and saw the first two comments were positive, from complete strangers. It was kinda cool.
If you do decide you want to cast a vote for me, then you'd have to join (i know, that sucks, it's free but it sucks and if you don't want to, no pressure, don't, if you do want to vote for me, lots of love to you)
join
if you want to let me know what you think here or there, feel free
