Isn't it fantastic?  I think it is.  The Grumpy Artist's best work, if you ask me.

Now, in regards to the paperback, it should be available very soon.  We had some issues with the spine, which are slowly being resolved as we speak.  Hopefully, it will only be a couple days away from completion.

That's it for now, folks.  Keep reading!

Well, for anyone who's been waiting for book two of The Rift to be released, your wait is over!  In a way, anyhow.

As of right now, Dead of Winter is live on Amazon for the Kindle.  I know, I know, the print book is supposed to be available, too, but we've run into a couple snags along the way.  It won't be too long, however.  We're looking right now at the second week of January for the release.

That being said, anyone who wants to pick up Dead of Winter can simply click here to find the Amazon product page.  As I've said many times, this is my favorite book in the series, and I'm quite happy with the way it turned out.

I hope you will be, as well.

I'll now leave you with an image of the cover - which will change slightly, because the font is a little, well, weak.

It's a fantastic piece of art, folks.  And the interior illustrations are going to be just as good.

Peace.

Yes.  Now, I will ramble.

I'm putting off writing a review right now.  It's something I know I have to do, but sometimes it can be such a stressful process - ESPECIALLY if it's a review for a book I loved.  I want to do the thing justice, and sometimes I wonder if I'll be able to pull it off.  Don't know why I do this to myself, though.  I always end up doing it, and doing it well, at that.  Perhaps it's just my inherent fear of "not being good enough".

Oh well.  On that note, our book sales have been stuck at one a day for this month.  I know this is good for a relatively unknown writer, but still, I'd like it to be more.  Let's face it, this is a good book - much better than a lot of things out there.  I just know that if folks were to find it, they'd think the same.  But the problem is getting them to discover the thing, isn't it?  I think I diluted myself into thinking releasing on Kindle would be the magic pill for some exposure...and while it has helped some, and I can't deny that fact, I still want MORE MORE MORE. 

Jeez, can I whine, or what?  *sigh*  I just need to bust out of this rut I'm finding myself in and do it, already.  Get to editing, get to writing that review.  The only thing that's going to remedy our relative lack of sales is more effort on our part.  I'm not gonna give up, that's for fucking sure.  So keep on plugging, brother, I tells meself.  You can do it.

And maybe, just maybe, some folks will stumble upon this post and decide that buying a book about the end of the world is just the thing to pick up their day.  In that case, here's the link below to find it on Amazon.

This past week, I was interviewed by author (and all-around interesting guy) Noah Mullett-Gillman.  It was the most entertaining interview to date, and the most informative, as well.  It appears today in the second issue of the Noahen Author series.  I'm the third interview, so scroll down to see it.
