Hello, Victor Storm

At last, the Spring Rains books created as part of my Kickstarter project have been delivered. There was a bit of a delay for a medical emergency that was not me but occupied a lot of my time, and for some reason the shipping was delayed after the printing, but everything is delivered now.

All the books of the Spring Rains omnibus (Winter Kills, Angel of Death, Swamp Monster, and Bad Apples) have been finally uploaded everywhere. Check them out.

And get ready, because this coming week, from February 26 to March 2, all the Victor Storm books will be on sale everywhere for $2.99 and $3.99. You’ll be able to pick up the whole set for only $13.96. Sweet!

They said it won’t work

A Kickstarter pro said my Kickstarter won’t work. I don’t have enough social media presence. My mailing list is too small. I don’t have enough Rewards. My genre doesn’t work on Kickstarter. It’s the wrong time.

Is that right? Maybe.

In response, I considered the advice. I can’t change the timing, or the genre, or the size of my social presence. But I can change the rewards. So that I did. I’ve added new discounts for both e-books and print books, and the ability to add more individual print books, and “starter sets” of both e-books and paperbacks.

Will it be enough? I don’t know, but I’m pretty happy with it. If you like books, you should check it out, and tell your friends.

Thanks!

3-Day Novel Day

It’s Memorial Day weekend, which to me means it’s time for the annual 3-Day Novel Contest. Several years ago, I wrote Winter Kills as part of the contest. I think the book turned out pretty good. Though the judges had some kind words, though, it did not win the contest.

This year, I’m not sure the contest is even still going. Their website seems a little behind the times. I hope everything is all right. I like that contest.

I have not spent this weekend writing a novel. Instead, I spent much of this day with my family, cleaning and cooking and having a nice dinner. I also spent quite a bit of time working on direct sales of my books. It’s exciting stuff, but a lot of work.

My Kickstarter needs help, but I’ll have more about that tomorrow.
