Free e-book? Why not?!
Hello to you all!
It's been a while since I've ventured onto 1911. To whoever still peruses these boards, hope you're well! I'm going through my social media to promote a free weekend for my book, Beakers Dozen, and it didn't feel complete without making a trip onto 1911. In the hopes that some of you enjoy reading (or know somebody who does), I'm going to selfishly plug everything here. Share with others, enjoy the book, live long and prosper. Those sorts of things.

When will this be available on audiobook? I'm not really into this whole "reading" thing.

Clicked Amazon link, discovered I'm not mentioned in the dedications, immediately closed out of Amazon and lit my laptop on fire, currently posting from my phone.

He had never heard the term xmvc before. Must be gang-related.
You killed me. I am dead.

Re: Free e-book? Why not?!
i enjoyed the premise and story line. the school was really interesting, although as john was driving there, i felt like a woman screaming at the movie theater for him not to go there. good thing he couldn't hear me.
part 1 was really similar to the walking dead's first season, which wasn't a bad thing. it was my favorite part of the book i think.
part 2 kind of lost me a bit. i think i wanted to learn more about richard and why everything had happened.
part 3 brought me back into it. i really liked the dynamic of the school and how it fit into the new world. for some reason i didn't really like atsu's group coming, but i don't really know why...
i thought the narration was really good. i could visualize a lot of stuff pretty easily.
the dialogue kinda sounded like 90s video game dialogue to me. it got really cheesey sometimes. i can't imagine how hard it must be to write dialogue for so many unique characters. i also feel like everyone in the world had a really sarcastic sense of humor about everything which i found a little odd.
it was a good, easy read. i even read it while not pooping sometimes. thanks!

Re: Free e-book? Why not?!
I've had a few people say this to me throughout the year. Even had one person tell me before I published it. The reason I never changed it was I wrote those beginning scenes before Walking Dead ever aired back in 2010. They fit into the way I felt the world needed to be shown, and I could never get myself to change it.knockout wrote:i enjoyed the premise and story line. the school was really interesting, although as john was driving there, i felt like a woman screaming at the movie theater for him not to go there. good thing he couldn't hear me.

I agree. Hindsight, I wish I had fleshed out that back story some more. I had ideas and storylines worked out but wanted to avoid getting lost in flashbacks and memories.part 2 kind of lost me a bit. i think i wanted to learn more about richard and why everything had happened.
I haven't looked at it since publishing in January, so I don't recall too much of this. When I finally decide to take a chance and read it fresh, I'll keep an eye out for it.the dialogue kinda sounded like 90s video game dialogue to me. it got really cheesey sometimes. i can't imagine how hard it must be to write dialogue for so many unique characters. i also feel like everyone in the world had a really sarcastic sense of humor about everything which i found a little odd.
Glad you enjoyed it, and even read it while not pooping. That's the best compliment I can get.
Oh, and feel free to throw that post up on Amazon. I've been waiting on lucky number 10 for about four months now.
