“About the Ride” Hardcovers Imminent

The cover art is in and I’m waiting on the final proofs.

They should arrive in a week or so. If they’re approved, I’ll have hardcovers soon after!

And because I’m such a tease…a preview:

Nope. There’s not a bigger image available (unless you buy the hardcover!)

Told you I was a tease!

Again with the Schlock!

So, here I go again promoting somebody else’s books on my website. Ahh, but that’s okay right? You all are loyal readers and have already ordered your Life Is a Road books right? Oh, and don’t forget the extra signed sets for Christmas presents!

Now, that out of the way, let’s talk Schlock. Howard Tayler’s Schlock Mercenary comes to a dead tree edition (again) with the release of his second book, Schlock Mercenary, The Blackness Between.

Schlock Mercenary, The Blackness Between

The production values of these books are amazingly high. In short, they’re gorgeous. A quality product, both in production and content.

Schlock Mercenary has continually updated daily for over six years, and is one of the best sci-fi comics on the web. Howard is one of the few that make a living at this. So, help support the small press. Go visit Howard. Click on his ads. Buy his books.

Um…right after you’ve ordered mine that is.

Election day…discouragements?

Yep, as always, I voted. This is not a post about who or why so don’t worry about discussing gods, devils, and the end (or beginning) of the world etc.. More >

Books are coming!

Preorder books begin shipping this coming Thursday! Again, I really appreciate the support and enthusiasm. Thanks.

And, I’ll take this moment to remind the rest of you…Life Is a Road, It’s About the Ride can only be gotten right here for now. It takes several weeks before the new catalog listing will filter down to Amazon, Barnes & Noble and the like. Hardbacks are coming too, but they take some time to get into production.

In the mean time, don’t forget signed Life Is a Road sets make GREAT Christmas gifts for the motorcyclist or adventurer in your life. You can only get ‘em here! Act fast to make sure you get them in by Christmas!

Preorders close midnight CT Friday, 11/4/06

Okay folks, preorders are closing midnight CST Friday 11/4/06. That’ll be the end of the numbered editions and the free US shipping (and discounted international shipping). The purchase page will be down until Saturday morning and then I’ll open the new (beta) Storm Rider Press store, which will be just one of the great places you can order my books. More on that later.

Thanks everybody for your enthusiastic support! I really appreciate it and would not be able to publish these books without it. You maniacs ordered me right out of the first print run of Life Is a Road, It’s About the Ride and also several of the other titles! The UPS guy is visiting me regular-like recently!

Oh, yeah, the marketer inside me insists that I remind you that Christmas is coming up fast…and sets of Life Is a Road books make GREAT gifts for the motorcyclist or adventurer in your life.
