How You Can Help

  • tell a friend
  • release week blitz
  • the Amazon wishlist

Word of mouth is what helps books get into the hands of readers. If you read and enjoy DREADNOUGHT AND SHUTTLE, or know of someone who might, would you please forward this email on or mention the book on Facebook, Twitter, or Google+?

Discoverability is probably the biggest hurdle for an author today. Books live and die by their Amazon rankings. If this is a book you think you would enjoy and you are planning on purchasing it, would you consider buying it during its first two weeks? (From now - June 15th) With even a small number of sales clustered together, the book will get noticed and promoted by Amazon's algorithms.

Even if you aren't planning on purchasing the book, simply putting it on your wishlist can give it a visibility boost. Would you be willing to place DREADNOUGHT AND SHUTTLE on your Amazon wishlist?

Thank you!
 


A Halcyone Space prequel story

"Treason's Course"

Please enjoy this short story that takes place about forty years before the events of DERELICT, book 1 of Halcyone Space. Before Emmaline Gutierrez became the feared Lieutenant Commander of Daedalus station, she was a young soldier, faced with a decision that would challenge everything she believes in and change the course of the rest of her life.

It is attached to this newsletter, as a pdf.
