The BulletProof Ghost at Geek Galaxy Comic Con! (and the physical version of BPG:P too)

Edits: The physical version is down for the moment... CreateSpace is just turning out awful.  I'm trying to work things out with them, but I may have to use another vendor to distribute the hold in your hand copy.  Updates as they come.  Sorry about this everyone.

So updates galore!  First and foremost, the physical version of The BulletProof Ghost: Prototypes is in the CreateSpace store!  You can have a hold in your hand version of BPG: Prototypes for only $7 (plus shipping)!  As soon as I get my first order, I'm donating several copies to libraries and various coffee shops in my area.  Exciting!  If you have an Amazon account and don't want to set up a CreateSpace account, it will be available on Amazon in 3 days.  Also here are all of the international Ebook links in case you live outside of the U.S. I've got you covered.

Here's the official cover, spine and back of the book:



So the bigger news is that BPG is going to be at Geek Galaxy Comic Con.  Geek Galaxy will be at 715 Locust St., Evansville, IN  47708 on November 15th and 16th.  I've already reserved an Exhibition Booth, so it's a done deal.  We'll have signed copies of The BulletProof Ghost: Prototypes, button pins, shirts and other swag.  I'll post up the designs for all of the swag up here, the Twitter, etc.  We'll also hold a drawing for a package that includes one of everything we're selling at Geek Galaxy.  This will be BPG's first con, so this will be awesome.

I want to make an announcement about the next book in relation to Geek Galaxy, but I can't promise it as much as I want to.  The plan if everything works out is to release The BulletProof Ghost: In Spades at Geek Galaxy Comic Con, but it might not be done by then.  I don't want to sacrifice quality in order to get them out on time (plus I have to talk to CreateSpace to see if I can get copies in advance, if not, there are local printers I can get the first batch made through).  If it looks like this will be possible, then I'll make it official, but right now, it's a nice thought.

Thanks again for the support and I hope this is just the beginning for the series.

There will be a physical version of BPG: Prototypes


So, I've been talking about a possible physical version of Prototypes for a while now.  I'm officially calling it, there is going to be a hold in your hands version of The BulletProof Ghost: Prototypes.  Hooray!  I wasn't aware that Amazon has a free, print on demand service.  I'm not sure on pricing yet, but I'll post it up on FB and Twitter.  There's even a bookstore option, but we'll see if that's possible, for the moment its not.

Currently the 2nd draft is done and printed out.  I may be working on the final draft as soon as next week.  I'd like to work on it sooner, but my second set of eyes is starting to read it tomorrow.

I'll spend this weekend working on the second volume's outline, which I have a lot of good, new ideas for the plot.  The BulletProof Ghost: In Spades is more than likely going to be the title.  This references the criminal organization that's been using Dilbane, Kyle's hometown, as a base of operations.  After the aftermath of the events of the first book, Kyle and Co. have to figure out their next steps.  Kyle will also become labeled by the public/media.  Slight spoiler, he isn't called The BulletProof Ghost in Prototypes at all, but his is referenced to as a ghost (which I wasn't going to do originally, but it fit really well in one scene, so I went with it).  Agent Susan Gojen tries to unravel the mysteries of Dilbane from a normal person's perspective.  Irene and Al, already knowing the answers to these mysteries, have a harder time dealing with their new reality.

That's a little preview to the second book.

I'll also be releasing a video trailer for the book about a week before release.  Don't forget about the free copy you can get a few weeks from now.  Stay tuned.
