Join Shamus Tom Vargas as he Clears a murder Case in Cin City, tinsel capital of the magical kingdom of New California. It’s his job; in fact, you might say it’s his calling. Doesn’t help that he already has the worst possible confession from the worst possible suspect. Then again, when does it ever?

Action! Adventure! Elf! Orc! Magic! Bad jokes! And a cover that just won’t quit:

Doing a 99 Cent Kindle Sale for FROZEN DREAMS!

It starts this Friday. I’m curious to see if there’ll be any synergistic effects from combining that with the (presumed) boost in visibility for FROZEN DREAMS, now that it has over fifty ratings*. It’s not that the algorithm is terrifying; it’s that Amazon doesn’t really explain how it works. Which I guess makes sense.

Anyway! Tell everybody the book goes on 99 cent Kindle sale on Friday!

*Don’t forget to review! There’s only twenty-one of those. For all I know, fifty actual reviews are the true critical threshold.

Publishers need to accept the concept of price points in Kindle.

Yes, I’m shouting into the wind. But this is my blog, so I’m exerting my privilege to do so.

The basic issue here is that, yes, most publishers want people buying physical books, presumably because they’ve spent a lot of money on the physical infrastructure necessary to make physical books. Unfortunately for them, we live in a time where adequate books can be published cheaply on-demand, and digital copies can be published more cheaply still. The publishing industry has been at war with Amazon for decades over this, and the best it’s been able to do is manage a slow, grinding retreat. And if Amazon goes away, I guarantee that smaller, more specialized e-publishing companies will rush in to fill the void*. The technology is here, and it will be used.

Reintroducing my Kindle Vella story: THE STARS ARE WRONG.

I don’t want to just abandon THE STARS ARE WRONG: it’s a fun Cthulhu Mythos story where I was trying to switch things up a little. I don’t think it deserves to just end up as an academic footnote somewhere. So I’m putting up the link again, in the hopes it’ll get more play this time. Or, you know, any play at all.

Trying the Kindle Vella ‘thing:’ THE STARS ARE WRONG.

I dunno if this is going to work, but it’s worth an experiment, at least. THE STARS ARE WRONG is a novella (also, last month’s Patreon short story*) in a Cthulhu Mythos style… with a twist! And also provided in serial form. It’s functionally equivalent to the aforementioned Patreon offering, so if you’re a Patron there’s no need to check it out. Mostly I just want to see what happens.

*Interestingly, Kindle Vella does not care about reprints. More or less: you can’t put up anything that you don’t have the rights to, or anything that’s available for free. But apparently being behind a paywall is fine.
