So what rewards would you like to see for the Valens Heritage Book 10 Kickstarter?

As hopefully all of you know, next week I'm going to launch yet another kickstarter - this one for book 10 in Valens Heritage. Which will close out that series.

I need reward levels for it still. I also need add-ons. (My recent substack post also mentions this).

 
I've got three rewards currently:

  • Ebook
  • Signed Paperback
  • All Ten Signed Paperbacks (not exactly cheap).

 
Two Add-ons:

  • Signed copies of all 18 Valens Legacy paperbacks plus wives tales (very not cheap)
  • Set of the 6 pinups I did of the first six wives of Sean's from Valens Legacy (limited number, not very expensive - I thought some folks might want them as I stopped selling them long ago).


And that's pretty much -IT-.
Obviously I need some more ideas and suggestions, please!

Dan's Inferno, Book V : Dominance is Funded!

 That's right! It funded yesterday on Christmas - a nice touch to be honest.

As of this post, it's got 40 minutes left and is almost $1000 past the goal.

So I need to finish Wolfhounds 5 ASAP (almost done) 

Write POI #12

Then Dan's Inferno V

Then the second book in the Wolfhounds Spin-Off trilogy (Valley of Fire

THEN write the first book in the Wolfhounds follow on series.

Oh, and I think I need to sleep in there somewhere - and write the sequel to Sometimes in the Fall

I've Been Nominated for an Award!!

In other news I seem to have gotten nominated for an award?

It would appear that the Audiobook version of 'Force Majeure' is up for 'Best SciFi Audiobook' on the 'Discover Sci-Fi' website.
On the Second Page of the selections, 'War Child' has been nominated for 'Best Military SciFi'!

I have no idea how big the DSF awards are (The publishing company for my audiobooks contacted me, so apparently it has some standing), but I'd appreciate it, if you'd all go vote for me.

Portals Of Infinity books are ON SALE now!!

 Portals Of Infinity books One thru Seven go on Sale Today on Amazon!

Yes, my first Best-Selling Series, the one that revived Portal Fiction over a decade ago, and also helped start the current interest in Harem stories (and was considered LitRPG at first because it was based very much on tabletop – but there’s no stats or charts, just discussions on ‘rules’) is On Sale!

Starting today (at Noon, Amazon time – no I’m not sure when that is!) until the 28th, the first four books (Champion For Hire, The God Game, Temples & Trials, The Sea of Grass) will be on sale for 99 cents!

Books Five thru Seven (Demigods and Deities, Reprisal, Kaiju), will be On Sale for $1.99!

Don’t miss it! Read the stories that helped launch two of the biggest genres that you’re all reading today!

(Note: Yes, there will be more POI books, I just got delayed on writing book #12 due to life events this year – and Wolfhounds)

Dan's Inferno Kickstarter is down to three weeks!

Just a reminder to everyone!

The Dan's Inferno Kickstarter is down to THREE WEEKS!!
So if you want to See Book 5, time to start spreading the word around. A lot of people bought book 4, so I'm sure there's more than enough who'd like book 5, but I'm guessing that they haven't heard about it.
So spread the word! We're almost 2/3rds of the way there!

The only way this book will happen is if this kickstarter succeeds! So don't be shy and spread the word!
