Countdown Continues
Well the countdown deal on Karl’s first two volumes is now in full
swing, the first book remains at 99p/$1.66 until Saturday night when it returns
to its full price, the second has just stepped up to the mid price range
£1.99/$3.34 where it will remain until Saturday night.
Quite a few people have
taken advantage of the offer even though the Countdown deals do not seem to be
widely publicised by Amazon. Don't miss
out on this chance as these deals don't come round very often. Also Amazon
Prime customers can still borrow the books for free on their Kindles.
Latest news on book 3 – the original
handwritten draft, yes somewhere in the region of 344,000 words all scribbled
out in longhand have been typed up, reviewed and is now undergoing proof
reading and review with the read through team. There have already been some
interesting developments which I’ll talk about in a later post.
Some people do ask why I don't just
type up the work instead. For me the creative flow comes from putting pencil to
paper. If I’m typing like I’m doing now for this blog and I mystipe something
up pops the red underline or whatever colour Word throws up for grammar and
punctuation and I feel compelled to go back and correct.
This breaks the
creative part of my brain which is trying to get the story out, by handwriting
I can get it to paper and then step back and tidy up and make corrections
during the transcription process. I can also write anywhere using a note book
providing I have my pencil and a sharpener. They are much lighter than the
laptop and the battery capacity on the old thing is not up to much these days.
I know there are new super fangled gadgets out there now but hey I’ve just
stopped using a quill give me a break.

Karl’s Clock is Ticking
As the third and final part of the Karl Trilogy goes into
its second draft now is a good time to join the adventure, especially since this
week both volumes are available in the Kindle store on the Kindle CountdownDeals.
Kindle countdown deals start low then the price slowly rises
back up to the original price during the run of the deal. So why not try something new for summer.
Book 1 will run for 99p on Amazon UK and for $1.66 on
Amazon.com for the whole week, you have until Saturday night.
Book 2 starts at the same price as book 1 but only for a
couple of days before it rises to £1.99 ($2.65 approx*) on Tuesday night, then remains
at that price until the end of the deal next Saturday night.(*) I don’t have the exact US price step available to me since I am UK based.
