Eldritch Fairytales (my first actual novel, first three chapter sample)
« on: February 09, 2013, 02:31:14 AM »
Hi guys, at the moment, I'm suffering from sleep deprevation, so I can't stay for long.

Anyway, I'm currently busy writing a novel, an ebook. I'm using a leanpub, which allows me to publish my novel while writing it. Therefore I've decided to make the novel available for purchase on February 14th 2013. It won't be done, but at least chapters four and five will be included here, hopefully also chapter six.

Here's a short summary of the novel:

Quote
It's a stormy night when a woman called Diana is entering Edgar's bookstore. From that point on his life has turned around, as he has given himself the task to not only help characters from various fictional worlds, but also stop a dark force from completely entering our world.

I might change the summary a bit though, but that's the best I could do for now.

Anyway, I'm guessing you would like to have a sample of the novel, which is okay, actually, I have the three chapters for you available, which is about 32 pages, excluding the foreword. Eventually, when it's published, you will be able to download an up-to-date version of the sample on the leanpub page, but for now, they're on my Dropbox account:

EPUB format
MOBI format
PDF format

Also, here's the link to the leanpub page of my novel:

Eldritch Fairytales

Once it's published, I'll be giving out discount coupons for it, and I might even give out free copies, but I don't know.

Anyway, you can leave comments and questions here.

Oooo.

I will endeavor to read these, when I have the time.  I also have been writing a book for some time, though I've never really considered selling it.

Any idea how much you'll sell it for? I mean, people will be buying an incomplete book.

The minimum price will $2.99, as I believe that people shouldn't pay much for a beginning author anyway, and since it's a pay what you want, people can just set their own prices. I also can't sell it for less, due to Amazon acting difficult with near-free minimum, so I need to anticipate for when I do want to publish it to the Amazon store. Finally, a low price to me is a nice way to get more people into reading.

I'll also do a Dutch translation later on, by the way.

Okay, so for people who live Stateside, they'll get this early, but for most Europeans, it's Valentine's Day, which means the novel is finally released!

Like I said, the novel costs $2.99, but you can get it for $0.99 with the following coupon:

ELDRITCHVALENTINES

It's valid until the 28th of February.

If you want, though, you could PM me for a coupon for a free copy. I might not always give it to you, but if you're nice, you might get one.
