But I Digress, Episode 3: The Perils and Privileges of Self-Publishing

“But I Digress…”
Hosted by Nathan Marchand

Are you a struggling writer who keeps getting rejected by publishers? Been in the writing business for a while and sick of how it works? Then self-publishing is for you! It’s an exciting avenue to distribute stories, but it’s also a hard path to take. In this week’s episode, I discuss those perils and privileges as someone who has worked with a real publisher and ventured into self-publishing.

And I battle fine print in nerdy fashion. (Watch and see!)

Here’s a link to Mark Coker’s PowerPoint presentation on eBook self-publishing.

‘Destroyer’ cover art finished and revealed!

After a month of work (and a few short delays), the cover art for Destroyer, a pulpy science fiction novella I co-wrote with my writer friends Natasha Hayden and Timothy Deal, has been finished!

Take a gander:

The cover painting for 'Destroyer' by Tyler Sowles.

This cover painting was created by Tyler Sowles, who I found by placing an ad in the Godzilla fanzine, G-Fan. I highly recommend checking out Tyler’s website: www.thekillustrator.com. If you’re into monsters and/or superheroes, he has a lot of artwork related to those sorts of characters.

Destroyer tells the tale of a group of scientists and soldiers who create a giant cybernetic dragon to end a war, but the creature goes berserk and strands them in Moscow, one of the enemy capitals, and goes on a rampage.

The book will soon be available in print from www.Lulu.com and as an eBook from www.SmashWords.com. It will also be the latest “publication” from Novel Concept (more on that later).

Stay tuned for more updates.
