Your attention please.

You may have noticed that I finally got the lead out and published the long-awaited third instalment to my trilogy: Hevun’s Gate.

You may have also picked up on the fact that I am more or less slightly broke.

So here’s a short list of things you can do that don’t cost you shit, but still help me out.

  1. Reblog anything you love. Like my short stories? Reblog them. Like my post about my book? Reblog it. Getting an audience is 90% of the battle for ANY author and I’m no exception.

  2. Spread the word. Tell your friends. Share the best of my writings around. Quote me on your blog. Do it. It will boost my ego and generate buzz.

  3. Leave a review/rating. People judge books by how many others have been there before them. Leave any newcomers with the impression that my book is well worth the money

  4. Fanarts. Did I inspire you to draw? Brilliant! Just remember to leave a link back to where you got it so people can see what the fuss is about.

  5. Power Point Slideshows. I have no idea why, but people on Tumblr love these things, so knock yourself out. Make dozens. Share them with everyone. And tell me so I can scatter them liberally throughout my queue.

  6. Tell other social media. I’m not big into Facebook, Instagram, Pintrest or anything else that’s going around and I only tweet rarely. But if you can add a link back to the place to buy it? Plaster that sucker all over the place.

I need a fandom, and my future is literally in your hands. Don’t just reblog this post. Reblog everything that is mine that you love. Share me with your friends and followers. Create some other stuff on the #Amalgam Universe and #Hevun’s Child tags.

We have to generate some serious buzz. Not just now, but always.

My budget needs you.

Feel free to use the following bitly links:

Thank you for your love, time and devotion.

(potential prompt) What's a Faiize?

Faiize are a gengineered species designed to be a better, bells-and-whistes-rich version of the popular Wave of The Future product known as Cleaners.

Cleaners, of course, resembling labrador-sized blue slugs.

The Faiize were designed, according to their sales shill, to be largely self-sufficient and capable of solving elementary problems. And, as a bonus, they can get into places regular Cleaners can’t reach. They were alleged to have no more than an Augment’s level of cusp-cognisence and were therefore

Challenge #00535 - A160: Reve-rie

“Yes, I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can find his way by moonlight, and see the dawn before the rest of the world.” - Oscar Wilde c/- RecklessPrudence

Everyone who met her knew that there was something wrong with Sai’dut. She would talk to herself, or stop her appointed tasks to stare at something irrelevant, she would grow forgetful or latch on to some asinine entertainment and learn everything that nobody wanted to know

Challenge #00534 - A159: Exceptions to the Rule

An Outside Context Problem is the sort of thing most civilisations encounter just once, and which they tend to encounter rather in the same way a sentence encounters a full stop.
-“Excession,” definition of an OCP c/- RecklessPrudence

Thus it is that the Cogniscent Rights Committee has passed numerous laws to prevent them. Shipping through inhabited systems with recognised intelligent life native to them is generally forbidden until such time as that native population has regular and reliable space flight.

Hi it's me, the Anon from earlier. I think we ended up arguing at cross-purposes. I agree with you almost entirely, and my point was never...

Anon - Tumblr keeps eating the rest of this. You might want to come off anon and send me a fanmail and discuss this properly.

But I still think your premise is flawed. There is no such thing as exclusive exposure to extremists. One would have to have very selective vision to only see and listen to the aggressive, bad element.

That said, I have yet to find a ‘good’ MRA. And by that, I mean a MRA who is

Challenge #00533 - A158: Relative Cartography

Google Maps is accurate. Apple Maps is the product of Dali and Picasso smoking a joint before painting the child of a canary and penguin with a frightened cat used as the paint brush, then selling the result as a map. – RecklessPrudence

There’s an old human saying, that there is no such thing as an accurate map. Maps lie.

For a start, they compress thousands of square distance units into flat expanse capable of -for instance- being held by

Dude that would be amazing
The bots in stop motion would be so awesome i can just picture it

maybe if enough people picture it the universe will allow it to phase into the physical world

Challenge #00532 - A157: Pee Ode

On a scale of one to “I will invent a time machine explicitly for murdering your parents,” how mad do you think [person] is? – RecklessPrudence

“Ambassador Z0rk? He’s always tetchy.”

“That’s tetchy?” Shayde boggled. “Remind me never tae get him PO'ed.”

“Pee… ode?”

“Pissed off. Angered. Riled. Bluidy furious.”

Humans. They were equally confusing in any temporal zone. At least she wasn’t mysteriously speaking
