Pre-Order My First Novel

Posted by on

Liberty Island (which publish a short story of mine — you read that, right?), is now going into book publishing and is using crowdfunding to get started. And who is the rising star novelist that is the author of the first novel they will publish?

Hmm, let me check… Hey! It’s me!

That’s right, my science fiction novel, Superego, will be their first release. And by joining in their crowdfunding campaign, you can basically preorder my novel. As long as you pledge $5 or more, you will get the ebook. For $15 or more, you’ll get the print version. And for $25 or more, I’ll sign it. That’s right: I’ll actually acknowledge your existence in print.

And there are other great pledge levels too. For only $35, you’ll get every book they release this first year — which could possibly include another one from me. I hope this is my first novel of many.

I think the big plubicity push for this will be next week, but I’m giving you, my most loyal readers, a heads up. And by the way, purchasing my first novel is MANDATORY. If it is ever found out you did not buy my first novel, you will be banned from the entire blogosphere forever. And it only take $5 to at least get an ebook copy; everyone has at least $5 in this country. I think that’s actually our country’s slogan — “Everyone here has at least five bucks.” Or maybe it was something about plural buses. Whatever. You have $5 bucks.

I’ll have more on this. Constantly.

EDIT: Do’h. I forgot to include the link to the crowdfunding campaign. You will need that to pay. It is essential.

Random Thoughts: Iraq, World Cup, and Government

Posted by on

So with releasing 5 dangerous Taliban and not giving Iraq air strikes, I guess we’re trying a “stay out of the way of terrorism” strategy.

People make fun of American news for spending so little time on foreign affairs but we also spend less time on people kicking a ball around.

Tim Scott proves Republicans are so racist that they will only vote for black people who agree with them politically.

If Kevin McCarthy becomes the new majority leader, will usher in a new era of McCarthyism? If so, why would that concern you, Commie?

Republicans being racist is a matter of faith to Democrats. Saying “Republicans aren’t racist” to a Dem is like saying “There is no God.”

There is no success without risk, and at times it seems like our country is at war with risk.

They should put cots in the elevators of skyscrapers so you can sleep your way to the top.

Obama should develop some sort of foreign policy.

Things similar between Obama and Hitler:
1. Mammalian
2. Usually wears pants
3. Muslim

You mean World Cup just started? I thought it had been going on for a week already.

How much would it anger the rest of the world if the US won the World Cup and the average American still had no idea what the World Cup is?

I mainly know soccer as being the catalyst for Homer Simpson buying a gun.

That was back when the Simpsons were good at taking on a controversial issue without preaching on it.

Is gun ownership controversial anymore?

So what’s happening in the World Cup? Did any team successfully kick the ball?

Government is a violent threat; I thought that was fairly obvious. It’s this thing bigger than us that can make us do what it wants.
