Hello, all.  Tonight I come to you for a favor.  I hope this doesn’t come across as desperate (it is, I just don’t want to sound that way).  Heh.  It’s been almost a year since I published Forging Truth, and I have received only one (1) review on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Forging-Truth-R... If you’ve honestly read it [...]

Here’s the link: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/6... ******** Well, I received my order of 20 copies of Forging Truth. You would have thought it was Christmas around here. It might as well have been 200 copies, instead. My wife got a kick out of [...]

Just published this over at Kickstarter. There are only 4 days left, and I badly need your assistance.

Note: Be sure to check out GeekDad.com on 5/1 for “Another Interview by an Immortal.” [I'll update with a link at that time.] Last April, I hosted an excerpt to Gene Doucette’s Immortal to help out his blog tour.
