Thank YOU: My Book Release

[Allan]

I promised to let all of you know when my book was finished.

many thanks to the people of Orbiter Forum! :tiphat:

After 2+ years I've finally finished my book and its been published on Amazon. I've gotten 3 good reviews so far.

Feel free to check it out and even read a sample (roughly 5 chapters). You are not obligated to buy anything, I'm just proud to share the accomplishment and wanted to thank those who helped me get there.

PS
Please tell a friend and pass the link. I'm trying to climb to the top 100 from the ranking of 281,818 in Amazon's book stack.
Thanks again everyone.

You sir, are a genius. This book, rather preview I read, was fantastic. Do write another.

 

[Allan]

Thanks for the kudo's. Genuis? Hardly, I just have a good imagination and enough sense to seek out people, like the folks at Orbiter-Forum, to keep my imagination relatively grounded in fact.

I have to admit though, I do worry that if someone here reads the entire story, I'll get blasted for the science/physics liberties I took. But, I did try to keep the speculation as realistic as possible.

Thanks again!

Thank you for your interest. I'm currently working on a print-on demand option for my novel I'll post the link to this thread once its established. Thanks again!

At this time and for at least another 90 days, I have given Amazon exclusive rights to the eBook publication of my book. I am looking into a print-on-demand solution if a paper back is more to your liking.

Should you decide to purchase the book via Amazon, the only place it is available right now, and its format does not comply with your e-reader, let me know (this forum or via email, with the receipt #) and I'll do my best to format the story in a format agreeable to your device.

I do appareciate your interest in my story. Thank you.

So far, in slightly over two weeks, my book on Amazon has sold quite well and reveived 3 5 star ratings. Although my ego is drinking this in, I understand that some of the credit belongs to you guys..again, thanks!

Lastly, Tuesday August 28th and Wednesday August 29th are two promotional days where you can download the ebook from amazon for free. I do hope some of you take advantage of the offer AND offer feedback.

Again, Thank you guys for allowing me to pick you brains (and then explaining to me, in a few instances, what it was that I picked). Hope you enjoy the book (Orbiter is in my acknowledgements)

Eventaully, I'm hoping to have a paperback ediition made. I'm jus trying to find the most cost effective way to do this without each book being 15+ dollars.

Well, epub would be readable by almost any device, including Kindle.

True, but for now, because of the progam I'm enrolled in on Amazon, I cannot distribute the story electronically outside their website. For at least the next 90 days I'm committed to Amazon, their format, and their rules. I'm pretty sure there are converters out there.
