more print books?!?!

Yep… As I posted on Fbook, against my will but for a VERY good cause, here are the PRINT BOOKS: bunchObooks  (Click the pic to see clearly 🙂  )  I’m all about eBooks these days…

but even the Dickheads (aka Phil fans) don’t agree. They still need the “Kinesiological” feel of a “real” book (or so says Senior Dickhead FB.) Okay Frank, and others, here ya go– print copies of Seeing Clearly! And, LARGE PRINT,  for you self-proclaimed geezers! Also visible is a copy of my novel  (A Kindred Spirit),  Scott Apel’s PKD: The Dream Connection (one of the books that heavily influenced my PKD fiction), and Start Where You Are, the first book by Pema Chodron, a Buddhist nun.

The good cause is for my 87-year old “Father-Thing” (1954 PKD story title) Ross!  Ross is not my “real” father, but SC is now a REAL book! So all you geezers, and old school book geeks, get over to BookPatch.com and buy one! Seriously, it’s got a 12-point Arial font so you can read without eye strain. If $8 is too steep, then you know the drill– here’s the $2.99 eBook version. Ahhhh! Must admit, it is fun holding and flipping the pages on my own books, but still prefer reading them on the Kindle. And, speaking of my FAV place, Amazon, that’s the brand new Echo next to my SC book.  I’ll explain about it in my next post.

Update SOON!

Well, the first batch of Seeing Clearly print books (mass paperback style) should have arrived by now. USPS says 2-day Priority is “slightly expedited, but no guarantees.” My Q is “then why bother with it?” Luckily, I ordered five more copies after I found a few errors and those are supposedly “out for delivery” (by 8 pm, June 17.) So, I will definitely post a PHOTO and say a few words when those arrive.

Meanwhile, just because I can, here’s the link to my favorite AKS book errata link. The Dickheads love it too 🙂 Help test the site by sending us a NOTE below:

A Kindred Spirit novel
This is my novel (mostly fiction) published in 2010

Hey you Dickheads, gawkers and AKS book buyers, we’re switching things around.

This is the AKS Archive site for old book blog posts, your comments, and other fun stuff from the heyday of book signings, and AKS events (like the famous Phil Fest at Boulder, CO! and the famous errata page.)

Of course you can find the book, with samples, at  iTunes book store (for Apple fans) or at Amazon.com use my author’s page, where you can see (and BUY) all three books:

  • A Kindred Spirit (the novel) in both trade paperback and eBook form
  • Seeing Clearly (a “sequel-of-sorts” to AKS, but nonfiction)
  • Beyond the GodForce
     (20 yr anniversary edition of the raw Cosmic feed)

Stay tuned… more updates and new projects in the works!

 

Global eBook Finalist?

I think so! We just got the first peek at the list of finalists tonight, and unless I’m wrong, it appears that “A Kindred Spirit” is on that list!!! Here, check the links: the list of Spiritual/Metaphysical fiction (note the word Finalist in my box) and then there’s this, the actual list of finalists!!

I’ll be looking for that updated FINALIST badge to put on the front page of the AKS site, next. YIPPEEEE!

And, as for the NEA event (in the post below), I received a list of three pages of contacts for the novel. The letter I received said that there was a lot of interest in adult fiction and very few offerings at the NEA Book Expo — mine received a lot of attention. How exciting is that?

Book sales have definitely picked up recently. So, the eBook award, being in the Expo and mentioning it on new Facebook groups is paying off. Now, can I get the 8.2.2011 Revision on Amazon for sale?! The process has taken much longer than anticipated. Revisions were actually done in July, but apparently August is one of the busiest months in the publishing world so getting new trade paperbacks, Kindle update and ePub for iTunes (Apple) is taking extra long. Really soon now. I will tweet, blog and post on Fbook the moment the new edition can be purchased. Thank you for your ongoing support and interest in A KINDRED SPIRIT!!

it’s starting!

I’m in Denver and about to leave for Nederland.  (this is a test of JC’s great new blog site.) If this works, I’ll upload a pic or two from the FEST!  The Philip K. Dick Festival.  I’m truly “on my way.” What a long strange trip it’s been  (really!)
