Ironheart on Sale for $.99

Ladies and gentlemen, your attention please.

Ahem.

Ironheart: The Primal Deception is on sale for the next few days on amazon at only $0.99!  Good people, that is less than what is spent on even the most frivolous of things, and also equal in price to the most serious of things, such as the delicious deep-fried goodness of the items on a McDonald’s dollar menu.  So unless you are saving every last possible dollar for sweet calorie accumulating fries and mini-hamburgers (a perfectly legitimate way to approach the saving of money, in my humble opinion), consider plopping a measly dollar down on the altar of literature.  You’ll be purchasing hours of enjoyment for less change than most people ignore on the sidewalk every day, not to mention supporting an independent author in the process!

Of course, if you think it’s both likely and deplorable that I’ll just spend your hard-earned money on a small fry, then you are correct on both counts.  Feel free to send me a picture of the finger instead.

If, on the other hand, you decide to sacrifice that highly prized dollar to the kindle gods and read Ironheart, please post a review on amazon.  No matter your opinion, I’d like to know your thoughts so I can improve my dollar-menu-income-generating projects.

New Results

I woke up this morning and my brain exploded.

Ironheart has hit #1 in the Teen and Young Adult Steampunk category on amazon, and #2 in Steampunk Science Fiction!  (By the way, the screenshot above is from last night and was provided by a friend.  It’s a little out of date.  Ironheart has since moved up in those categories.  I’ve got to figure out how to do some of this stuff.)  Seeing Ironheart ranked above Jim Butcher’s – the JIM BUTCHER – Cinder Spires nearly sent me into convulsions.

Thank you so much to everyone who participated in Ironheart‘s release!  You guys and gals are wonderful, and without you, writing books would be a gigantic exercise in futility.  Every single one of you has my heartfelt gratitude.

Early Results for Opening Day

I am very tired, but I’m also ecstatic.  If you didn’t know, those two things mixing together lead to a sleep-deprived feeling of euphoria.

Peeps, if I was not totally technology illiterate, I would post a screenshot to go along with this announcement.  Ironheart just hit #1 in Children’s Steampunk on amazon!  Finally edged out Philip Pullman’s The Golden Compass.

In addition, it is also now at #2 in Teen and Young Adult Steampunk, which is also awesome.  (I’ve heard it said that they don’t give medals for almost, but sometimes they do.  It’s called silver.)

What I’m trying to say…is that you all did it.  I know every author says it, but I’m going to say it too.  And when I say it, it’s actually true.

I have the best readers in the world.

 

Ironheart Update

Alright everyone.  Currently, Ironheart is sitting at #5 in the YA Steampunk category, just behind Philip Pullman’s popular His Dark Materials trilogy and one other book.  Let’s push it up to number one!

And for everyone who has purchased a copy of Ironheart today, you have my heartfelt thanks.  You guys are the best!

If you haven’t picked up Ironheart for $2.99, you can still get a copy here to help boost its rank!

Ironheart Launch Day

Hello Everyone!  Today is launch day for my newest novel, Ironheart: The Primal Deception.  If you enjoy my stories or if you’d just like to support an artist’s endeavors, go to amazon.com to buy Ironheart on kindle.  I’m trying for a big release launch in an effort to get more exposure on amazon by landing on a bestseller list or two.  Every sale helps boost book rank tremendously, and Ironheart is only $2.99, less than a cup of coffee!  As of right now, there is not yet a paperback version.  Ironheart is only available on kindle.  But, like most books, it is far cheaper in its digital form than in its physical form ($2.99 as opposed to something like $14), and it is easy to buy and read kindle books – even if you don’t own a kindle!  If you’d like to help make this book launch a success, just follow these simple steps:

1) Download the Kindle Reading App on your computer or smartphone (if you don’t have a kindle). 2) Purchase Ironheart soon (a spike in sales is important to get Ironheart on high profile lists). You can purchase Ironheart here. 3) Spread the word!

There is no way for me to express how grateful I am for all the support I’ve received other than to say it in simple words.  Thank you for everything!  I appreciate it.

Now, let’s make Ironheart‘s launch a success!

Ironheart is Officially Live

It’s finally here!  After a year’s worth of work and all of your steadfast support, Ironheart has arrived!

Thank you to everyone who made this possible, and to all the readers who patiently waited for me to get my act together!  Allow me one parting excuse for my procrastination: college can get very busy.  (Lame, I know).

You can now purchase Ironheart for only $2.99 on amazon.com.

IRONHEART Release Date

The Arrival on sale for $.99!

Today, February 26, my award-winning epic fantasy novel, The Arrival, is on sale for $.99 on amazon.com for kindle!  If you’re a fan of Game of Thrones, The Lord or the Rings, Eragon, or the fantasy genre is general, this is the book for you!

Unsure if you want to spend a dollar on a book when you could get something from the dollar menu at McDonald’s instead?  Here’s what professional book reviewers are saying about The Arrival.  Maybe they can change your mind.

“5 out of 5 stars.  (The Arrival) includes an interesting mix of war, magic, romance, and comedy built into an otherworldly, archaic setting…an incredibly fun and riveting read – even for non-fantasy readers” – San Francisco Book Review

“A brilliantly spun tale…The Arrival is one of the best fantasy novels I’ve read this year, harking back to the likes of Christopher Paolini’s Eragon and George R. R. Martin’s Game of Thrones.  5 Stars.” – James Grimsby, SPR

“5 out of 5 stars.  A grand adventure…an engaging and sprawling epic…fans of Game of Thrones will love this novel.” – Pacific Book Review
