22 AUTHORS - 3 DYSTOPIAN BOXED SETS - 1 MASSIVE EVENT

  Huntfortomorrow
22 AUTHORS. 3 DYSTOPIAN BOXED SETS. 1 MASSIVE EVENT.
A virtual scavenger hunt through twenty-two fictional dystopias.
Friday, July 18 at 6:00pm (EST) - Sunday, July 20 at 6:00pm (EST).

Join THE HUNT FOR TOMORROW, an on-line scavenger hunt, and embark on a virtual odyssey through twenty-two dystopian futures. Become an intrepid scavenger and solve clues at each of the dystopian author stops as you navigate your way to the finish line where you’ll be entered into a random draw for the Grand Prize.

For each correct answer collected along the way you’ll get an additional chance to win. During The Hunt, the authors will offer up their own exclusive material, sneak peeks, contests, and giveaways at their individual stops on The Hunt, giving all scavengers multiple chances to win bonus prizes. The twenty-two participating indie authors include best-selling, award-winning and emerging writers from the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom who all have books included in three dystopian boxed sets - - What Tomorrow May Bring, A Taste Of Tomorrow, and Shattered Worlds.

In a unique collaboration of story-telling, nineteen of the authors will write a progressive short story over nineteen days following The Hunt. The Grand Prize Winner of The Hunt For Tomorrow will name characters and contribute the title for this dystopian world, and all participants in The Hunt will receive an advance copy of the story for an exclusive period before it is made available as a free download. The Grand Prize also includes a signed copy of books included in the boxed sets, an ebook of all the boxed sets, and the first copy of this one-of-a-kind progressive story.

THE HUNT FOR TOMORROW begins at http://huntfortomorrow.blogspot.com on Friday, July 18 at 6:00pm (EST) and ends on Sunday, July 20 at 6:00pm (EST). The Hunt is on for one weekend only, although there is no time-limit for completing the course. The Hunt is open to scavengers around the world; there is no cost to enter and one grand prize winner will be selected at random from all eligible entries.

Go to THE HUNT FOR TOMORROW for details and the full list of participating authors.

1 Million words of Dystopian Fiction, 11 Titles, and We're Giving Away over 40 Books!

Greetings, Gamers. I hope you've all had a wonderful holiday and have started off 2014 with a bang! The year is promising to be very exciting!

Last month's launch of the second season of GAMELAND with Jessie's Game: Signs of Life was awesome! We had a ton of fun at the Twelve Days of GAMELAND event. I sent out a bunch of paperback books to the winners just before the holidays.

Thanks to those who have already purchased a copy and written a review. The book has a 4.8/5.0 star rating on Amazon. As a special thanks for taking the time to leave feedback, I'm giving away two personalized paperback copies of Signs of Life (or ebook copies, or ebook or print copies of either of my two story collections) on Monday, January 13, 2014.

  

To be eligible, just leave a link to any of your posted reviews to any of my books in a comment on this thread on my Facebook wall here before 1/13.  If you've written reviews on multiple books (Thank you!), post each separately for multiple chances to win. If you're not on Facebook, reply back to this with your links and I'll make sure to add them in.

HUGE NEWS!

Or maybe I should say "Hugh News?" GAMELAND has been honored to be represented in an 11-book dystopian box set from some very impressive writers. The digital set includes Hugh Howey's latest series Sand - The Belt of the Buried Gods, as well as titles by Joe Nobody, Jason Gurley, Joseph Turkot, serial kings Sean Platt and David Wright, and more. After only 2 days, the set has already reached rarefied air on Amazon's best-seller's list. And coming in at just about a million words, the $2.99 price is a steal! But here's a secret: it won't stay at this price for long. If you haven't read these other authors, RUN, don't walk to get this!


Currently available at:
Amazon (US UK CA ...) and Kobo
Even better, it's available through Saturday 1/11/14 for only 99 cents with the coupon code ML25N at Smashwords
Not yet live on B&N, iTunes, and Google Play.

Speaking of Google Play, I've just started distributing my books there. You can find them here. Only a few are live, so check back.

MEET THE AUTHORS, WIN SOME BOOKS

Join us on Facebook this Saturday, Jan 11th, from 1-3PM (PST), to meet and chat with the authors of The Taste of Tomorrow box set. Everyone is welcome to join. There'll be a ton of games and prizes given away, including:

10 audiobook copies of Joe's DARKIN: A JOURNEY EAST

11 mobi or epub copies of Wright/Platt's WHITESPACE: SEASON ONE 

2 ebook copies of Tony Betauski's CLAY (sequel to HALFSKIN; not yet out)

3 ecopies of Colin Barnes's ASSEMBLY CODE (follow-up to ARTIFICIAL EVIL)

3 ecopies of Chris Ward's TUBE RIDERS: EXILE (follow up to THE TUBE RIDERS)

10 epub or mobi copies of TW Piperbrook's CONTAMINATION Boxed Set

And I'll be giving away a slew of ecopies and print copies from several of my own books.

Hope to see you there!

That's all for now. Take care and read well.
