Hi Lance,

How are things? I've read the first 10 chapters of your book and really enjoyed it. Some of the descriptive writing really draws the reader in and you seem to have put a lot of thought into the world you've created.

I did note that your chapters are very short - is that personal preference or are you just using it for the purposes of this particular book?

Best wishes,

Martin.

lol True, King is a giant among horror writers.

I am so pleased that you enjoyed my short story! I was actually thinking that if I wrote enough short stories, I would put them all together in a book and sell them eventually. :)

I also like books that have a bunch of short stories put together.  Sometimes I think those are actually better than the longer stories.  Maybe because they leave you more to wonder about.

Thanks again for the feedback! Barring any life interruptions, I should have a new short up in a few days. I will let you know when it's up. :)

Hi - Thanks for inquiring about my book cover design service. Email me at GVTgrafix@aol.com and let me know what you have in mind for the cover. :-)

lol Thanks, I love my sick mind too! It's the only mind I have :P

Seriously, I'm really glad you liked the story. I also enjoy getting feedback because it helps me to improve on work that needs it :)

The clown picture is in fact Pennywise lol which is why I tried to move the story as far away from that as I could. I definitely don't want to step on King's toes!

For members who like a specific genre, or write in that genre, check out the groups where there are specific groups for novelists, children's book authors, thriller writers, etc.

Yeah, it can, though it will be awhile then as the only way I know of to do that is to buy the book and gift it and $$ is short right now with after Christmas.

Which book do you want? It is a series but it's not essential to read them all to understand what is going on - of course at the moment I think #5 is the best since it is the newest :p

Hi 4-Lan,

Let's see...you can change a rating at any time, you just have to go the book page and click the stars again. In the same column, which is on the right side of the book page, are all the options for readers. You click Back the Book to put it on the bookshelf. They only give us room for five books but you can watchlist as many as you want, I think. 

You can find me...MoonScribe is my user name. Just search for it and it will take you a small pic of me. Click that and you will be on my page...Thanks for the comment. There are some great writers on the site and several who really give constructive comments. I have found it to be a big help.

I think the 20% is something the "internet" - meaning servers and all that - do to fill in spaces in file names. I have noticed it before elsewhere and the first time I was like "what??????"

I'll go grab it and add it to my tbr pile ;) I'm reading the protector by mark Mathews now and then I have Escape from Hazriel by C Coppola and it will fit neatly after them :)

Thanks so much! Let me know what file format you'd like (pdf, mobi, epub) and whihc books I'll get those sent to you :D

Thanks so much :) If you'd like review copies let me know, always happy to send them. I see by one of DM Yates comments below that you are also working on a book?

lol no, the ones for KFC I think, where the buffalo would start flying around. I'll let you know if I ever get bubble bath again! I haven't bought bubble bath in years lol.

At 1:49pm on January 14, 2014, Elizabeth Foshee said…

lol oh I see, I don't even remember those commercials. I remember Mr. Bubbles bubble bath instead! That and those stupid buffalo wing commercials lol.

Thanks for the link permission. I will add it right away!

If Calgon is magical or good looking I might just ask him to take me away! lol

Thanks, I really appreciate any input I can get. Also, I wondered if I may put the link to your page here on my website. It might help out in the long run once I can get more traffic to my site :)

As for the insurance, well it's just a wait and see proposition. They screwed up the website they use and now they are getting flooded with calls from angry people. I'm hoping to hear something back by the end of next week. But I'm not holding my breath lol.

Thanks for the feedback! The evil eye is still there in the story portal lol just scroll down past the Christmas story and you'll see it or check the archives. I don't replace the old stories, I just write new ones. You know how blogs are, they put the newest one at the top. :)

I hope I get some time to read soon also. I've been fighting with my daughter's insurance and trying to get her back on it. Makes for a lot of stress and little time to read lol.

I have some time this afternoon though and I will be doing some reading! Yay! :D

Thanks for your kind words on my book cover.  I designed it myself and am very proud of it.  One of those rare things that actually turned out just the way I wanted it.

Hi Lance,

Thanks for the review, I'm glad you enjoyed the book. I've tried to be a bit original and am particarly glad you picked up on that.

I'm about two thirds through the first draft of my novella and hope to have it out by the spring/summer. I've downloaded your book onto my tablet and look forward to reading it - I've been looking to get back into reading some fantasy.

All the best,

Martin.

Well I've made a new website so I can put all my writing together. I've put the link to it up on my Page. My Christmas story is there as well as my non-fiction blog. I've also put up a page linking to the e-book I have up for sale so far. 

That sounds so exciting, I've been thinking about doing a series connected to the e-book I have up for sale. I think it might end up a little like the fantastic 4 or something. Modern day superheros with special powers. That could be fun :)

Danny seems to be a very nice fellow and I plan to also read his writing. Right now I am pretty swamped with writing my new story and real life issues. When I get some down time I will also try to squeeze in some reading. I'm also interested to see what your writing is like. :)

Cheers mate.

Summer here is beautiful but yes indeed….December is for snow & cold.

Friend me on Facebook and/or Like my page as I’ll be holding a live video release party in March. Discounts for the book on that day, etc.

I just completed the final edits today and now off to the printer…

Yes I was thinking about doing that once I have enough short stories up. If nothing else it would make for a bigger book lol. I'm glad things are going well for you, it must make you feel so excited! Are you planning to do a whole series of books with the same characters?

At 2:31am on January 9, 2014, Martin Murphy said…

Hi Lance,

Thanks for buying the book, I hope you enjoy it. I will also have a look at those other novels you mentioned in your previous post.

Have you written one recently that  I could read and review?

Martin.
