The Sign of the Sibyl on sale - around 85% off

I will be holding a sale for the Kindle e-book of The Sign of the Sibyl from September 21 through September 27, inclusive, on Amazon and Amazon UK (sadly, price promotions aren't available on other international Amazon affiliates--a choice of theirs, not mine, I can assure you!)

Here's how it will work:

At 12:00 am GMT, September 21, the price will drop to 0.99 GBP on Amazon.co.uk (about 83% off).

At 12:00 am Pacific Daylight Time, September 21, the price of the e-book will drop to 0.99 USD on Amazon.com (about 87% off).

At 12:00 am, September 28 (in the respective time-zone), the book will revert to the ordinary list price of 7.49 USD/5.75 GBP. Throughout, it will remain free for subscribers to the Kindle Unlimited program, as well as to those who borrow it from their friends via the Kindle Owners Lending Library.

First book released!

The Sign of the Sibyl is now available in e-book and paperback formats on Amazon (including Amazon UK and other European subsidiaries). 

The process of publication is a little more drawn-out than one might anticipate from outside, and a few practical details still need to be ironed out. In particular, it will take another week or so before you can look inside the print book, but, in the meantime, the sample chapter remains available, as does the look-inside function for the e-book.

Safekeeping will take a little bit longer, but it should be up in September as anticipated. 

Sample chapters

The blog has been a bit quiet this month, but we've been busy: most recently, with print layout for our novels.  We now have sample chapters!

Watch the blog (or follow by email, in the right sidebar) for further progress updates; we hope to have the novels available as paperbacks and e-books in August or September.

Welcome!

After months or years of saying I'd like to publish a novel someday, it's time to make it happen.  I've joined forces with another writer in the same position, and we're working towards releasing a book each this year (August or September).

We plan to use this blog for occasional progress updates as well as (hopefully less occasional!) posts on various writing topics.  The title (in case anyone wonders) comes from G. K. Chesterton's poem 'Lepanto', which begins 'White founts falling in the courts of the sun'; no special significance, it just sounded nice.
