I'd have bought it for the cover alone! Gotta love David Wilson and the gang at Crossroad, they are the best! |

| Post subject: | Velvet Dogma - Live, Naked and in Your Room |
Today is the day. Ironic, really. On the day that I type THE END onto my latest novel Blood Ocean (Afterblight Chronicles), the very first science fiction novel I wrote goes on sale. I've already told the story of Velvet Dogma on this blog with -- Velvet Dogma Orphaned No More -- where I told the tale of how it came to be and what happened to it on its publishing journey. I gotta say that I am just damn thrilled that you all are going to be able to read my efforts. It's been six long years and now it's here-- Live, Naked and in Your Room for you to read. Velvet Dogma has been compared to PK Dick and William Gibson. That's someone else's comparison, not mine. My hubris isn't of sufficient stature to place myself among these giants. I do owe credit to and my mind was stimulated by Gibson's Neuromancer, however. That novel along with Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash are two of the best cyberpunk novels ever written-- hell, best science fiction novels written. You'll notice in Velvet Dogma the influence. Thanks to both these literary genius gentlemen for laying such a brilliant foundation for me to play upon. So here it is. The book is only published in eBook. I've already been asked to publish it in paperback but I said no. I want to try this medium, which is perfect for a novel about the internet and computing. I've taken Joe Konrath's advice to heart and used some of his eBook guiding principals, primarily in the cover. Isn't it awesome? I've also used a lot of his other advice. Notice inside the book you will find links and excerpts to other books, not all of them my own. Thanks Joe for the help. Here's where you can find Velvet Dogma for $3.99 Amazon - Velvet Dogma Barnes and Nobles - Velvet Dogma Smashwords - Velvet Dogma with a free 20% preview and in all formats |

Did I write Rip-roaring? I meant to say Rip-snorting!

I am definitely going to purchase this. I'm in a bit of a sci-fi mood. |

Velvet Dogma has been doing balls out great. It's one of Crossroad's Press's best sellers. Because of the success, they decided to make it into an audio book. I'm proud to report that after two weeks, it is #15 on Amazon's Hot New Releases, resting comfortably between Ben Bova's POWER PLAY at #14 and Charles Stross's Rule 34 at #16. It's in all formats. Whether you want it on your kindle or if you want it on your iPod, it's ready for ya. |
