This free promotion has gone really well. Over 1000 books given away and they've hit the top of some of the free categories. Thank you to everyone who has taken part!
Also, it will never not be hilarious to me that Amazon's algorithm decides Troupe of Shadows belongs in "sibling fiction." IYKYK.

I mean I'm sure that's a factor but I think the real root reason is that the company isn't publicaly traded.
Shareholders are basically the devil.

My trusty writing laptop of 5 years finally black screened on me today. There is a chance he can be saved, but it doesn't look good. He passed away in his favourite place, the train.
RIP Refurbished government surplus Lenovo ThinkPad from 2012. I will never forget you.

#SFFChat Intro:
By day I'm a programmer and by night (early morning) I write fantasy that is violent, (melo)dramatic, and weird. Pulp, basically!
My debut was Troupe of Shadows, a story about a band of chameleon skinned warrior dancers trying to survive in a strange wild west-inspired frontier.

It's been ages since I shamelessly plugged my first book so here are some review quotes.
"What's not to like about Cowboys vs Alien Ninja Chameleons?"
"Pulpy (in the best kind of way!) and thoroughly entertaining."
"Very action packed. Very Weird."

Did this a while ago, but only posted it on badsky.
I write books by night. One of the books features a race with "chameleon" skin.
I make games by day. I was between jobs for a bit.
Mashed those two sides of me together for a bit and made a tech demo (vids below).
