Dear followers and visitors
What a difference a week has made. From the heady heights of flogging off 439 copies in my Kindle Free Days, sales of TSH have dropped off to the roundest of numbers, 0. But I'm not disappointed; in fact, at the moment it's a waiting game for the reviews to start coming in, and very soon there will be the official media release!
I have a plan, and if I can pull it off, it seems that the follow-on to TSH, The Fear, The Sundering, The Journey will be ready for release in 3 months. "How?" you might ask. Well this is the benefit of having worked on a project for six years. FSJ already exists on paper, except I have planned to make a fair few changes to the narrative so it flows better, and gets where it needs to go quicker. Don't want to dally, but the Hero of Talbadas has a purpose in life...
So anyway I'm going to shift to end of week updates, and resume the History of Talbadas (sorry if you're hanging out for a new entry but the book comes first; the history to the fantasy world, which authors might sell for a price, or else bury in some appendix or another, is going to be available mostly free for you to enoy.
I say "mostly free" because I'm not giving everything away; but the history will help understand a lot of the background to Talbadas and its place in history.
And if I'm done before three months, I'll start writing something else - maybe the Misadventures of the Evil Patrick Dempsey (duh-duh-duhm). Head full of ideas and all that!
Stay tuned and send me your wonderful reviews, am looking forward to hearing the good, the bad, and the ugly - will gladly post your views here.
Cheers!

End of Freebies
Final update from 7pm (2 hours later)
As best I can tell I finished at #31 out of the top 100 Epic Fantasy for Free on Kindle; past that, I moved 439 units. Still, that for me is a groundbreaking achievement.
To all purchasers, I certainly hope you enjoy, and again hope there aren't too many mistakes to drag things down. I take typos, doubled words and continuity seriously, but as an Indie with limited funds and no editor (Yeah, sure, like lawyers work in offices and drive cars." - Lionel Hutz) you have to admit I do pretty well for a first time effort.
Your feedback is now the most important thing to me, and I wait with anticipation for your likes and even your hates - without you, I can't learn how to become a better author, or find where I went wrong in the past to go better in future.
It's your story now. Enjoy!

2 HRS LEFT - IN LIKE FLYNN TIME PEOPLES
17:00 Sydney Time / 22:00 PST
With two hours to go, movement has slowed to a trickle with only 3 units sold since 15:45. TSH has moved 434 copies, and has held steady at #31 out of the Top 100 Epic Fantasy for Free (although the item page still shows #27).I've held some good company, cosying up to both the RR's (next door in the paid section - as to when I can get near them in the paid section itself time will have to tell).
Last Drinks update due at the close of the bargain tonight; thanks to all who have purchased I hope you're enjoying as we speak!
15:45 Sydney Time
The slip has set in, only 2 units sold in the last 45 mins - 431 total. TSH has gone down to #31. Looks like the gift horse has bolted but I'm still not looking it in the mouth!Still, thats 431 units more than 0! And looks like you're all safe from tutu-time!
TSH Free on Kindle - 5 hours to go!
14:20 Sydney Time (19:20 Tuesday, PST)
With 5 hours remaining TSH has re-gained a bit of ground, with 429 sales and a step up to #27 of the Top 100 Epic Fantasy for Free on Kindle.This position has its benefits. Forget GRR, I'm next to the master himself, JRR. (of course I have fewer songs, dinners, hobbits, one less Gollum, one less giant eyeball and a lot less rings; and don't have the studious background to create an entire working language [kudos])
More updates to come!
