I have added This Is Not the Book That Will Save Your Life to my tax-relief sale on Smashwords, meaning the Smashwords e-book edition (ePub/Kindle) will be just $1.99 when it first goes on sale. (Here is the link: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/717550)
In addition, the Smashwords edition will be available a full week ahead of the print and Amazon Kindle editions—April 21st.
As with the other e-book titles, all you have to do is click on the Buy with coupon button (not yet visible in the screenshot below), and the discount will be applied automatically.

This morning, I approved the IngramSpark proof for This Is Not the Book That Will Save Your Life, and ordered my 10 copies to sell at readings, give out for promotional purposes, etc. The official on-sale date is April 28th; I will post pre-order links as soon as I have them.
In the meantime, I will have the e-book versions to prepare—and I will also prepare a version for CreateSpace, so that I can make the book available through Amazon stores in those territories that IngramSpark’s Global Connect program does not cover. Until then…it’s a book!

It’s time—I will be taking down the draft I posted the link for later today. If you downloaded a copy and have any feedback, please e-mail me. Be sure to include your name as you would like it to appear in the acknowledgments.
Thanks!

Yeah, I can’t help messing with the current draft, even before any feedback (if any) comes my way. Continue reading
The IngramSpark PDF proof for …but for the thoughts running through my mind was ready for review much sooner than expected. I have approved it, which means it should be showing up in a few extra places online (Barnes & Noble comes to mind), and, as I mentioned earlier, it should also soon be available to order through your favorite local book store, should you be so inclined. (That ISBN, again, is 978-0-9988781-0-2.)
Note: The book may disappear from Amazon for a bit, but should be back once the listing for the Ingram-distributed version kicks in.

A brief update on …but for the thoughts running through my mind. Now that I have a fresh batch of ISBNs, I am taking advantage of IngramSpark’s Indie Fringe promotion to properly set up the book with them under my own ISBN (978-0-9988781-0-2). I anticipate being able to approve the PDF proof by tomorrow, which means that you will soon have the option to order the book through your favorite local book store…
