Hi.
Been a while since we were here. This is my 2012 end of the year post. I know,
right? Always late. That should get better after the next couple releases. And
after life settles back down a bit.
I
know, you came for From The Ashes details. It will be live, here, sometime in Feb. I’m offering it
in paperback, Doc, EPUB, and PDF. On retailers? It’s going to be a while,
months at least.
Why
only here?
As
of right now, I have 5 days to move and no house to take my kids to. The deal
with that stunningly beautiful home fell-through at the last minute and my
current landlord has chosen not to break the new lease he signed when informed
of my coming move in Dec. (After 2 years, I’m month-to-month and he’s worried
over being sued by the new tenant, I think.) Also, the IRS has decided that I
owe them $10K, 1/3 of it due by tax day, with interest and fines still adding
up until they’re paid in full. Clearly, I’ll be hoping for a payment plan or a
quick hit from a sniper’s slug.
The
book has to go up here because I have to survive if I’m going to be able to
write the next one.
On
the upside, my wonderful daughter is about to turn 17, I just found out I’m
going to be a grandma for the first time by my 21 year old, and my mildly autistic
son is reading - to me. I also may
get book 6 out in 2013. Those things top the IRS any day!
I’m
sure you want to help, but sadly, like the rest of the planet, we need money and I refuse to beg you for that. What I will ask for, is this: I
have a small amount of merchandise and a variety of formats of books available.
If you can, buy them directly (from this blog and my website) so I get the full amount
instantly. The retailers take a large cut and make me wait 60 days. You
can also tell the people about Life After War and my other work.
As I'm being forced back to selling ghost-writing skills on Elancer and Freelancer in what little spare time I have, I
won’t be around to answer comment or messages for a while, but I will get
through this and I will be back. Probably not until after summer break, though,
if I’m going to get the next 3 books ready.
…Don’t
forget me, okay?
Sigh.
Heading
back for another round of putting Beta edits on book 5. Have a nice week, world.
Angie
