Thanks, SolitonMan!
Here's my official announcement.
It’s finally here. I have pressed the “launch” button, and now anyone can go to Amazon and buy
The Ventifact Colossus – Book One of The Heroes of Spira. Any by anyone, I mean you!
This would obviously never have happened if not for my many enthusiastic readers right here at EN World, and I will always be grateful to you – especially those who kept pestering me to turn the Story Hour into books. So, thank you!
Here are the three main things you can do to show support, if you are in the mood for such:
1. Buy the book! The e-book for Kindle is $3.99, and the print book is $13.95.
Here are the links:
e-book link on amazon (US):

print book link:

If you do not live in the U.S., you can search your own country's Amazon page for "The Ventifact Colossus."
At this time, the book is only for sale on Amazon. If you are unable to access Amazon from where you live, we can probably work something out where I buy the book myself and have it shipped to you, and you pay me via PayPal.
2. Tell other people about the book, especially if they enjoy fantasy novels. (And – big surprise – it might be of particular interest to table-top gamers!) This is a big one; as a self-published author, I have no PR firm or marketing team. Word of mouth will be key, and by “mouth” I mean YOUR mouth. Note: it is entirely reasonable for you to read the book first, and only recommend it if you enjoyed it.
Also: I have a URL for the book, along with a form people can fill out to receive updates about my progression on the series.

3. Review the book! (After you’ve read it, of course!) It doesn’t have to be a long or involved review, though it certainly can be if that’s what you’re moved to write. I want your review to be honest, even if you don’t like the book very much. The best places to leave reviews are Amazon and Goodreads.
Happy reading!
