    Another Great Independent Review

    Hello All,

    Read a few quotes from the latest independent review of Martin's Ghost, from Niki's Book Review:

    "This is a wonderful and quick read."

    "We cannot let this one go by unnoticed! He [William] is an incredible writer trying to get his name out there."

    Niki has been incredibly supportive since she read Martin's Ghost. The first line in her email to me after reading the novelette was, "Wow! That's the first word that comes to my mind on your novelette!"

    You can read the full review at:

    Thanks so much for your support!

    William

    Matthew, I was very disappointed to see that Almost Super was not fully funded. As I'm finding out with my own project (Martin's Ghost), it's a long way from $0 to $5,000. I think you did a great job. Best of luck with the publishing and any future projects. You're very talented. I'm really looking forward to buying a copy of Almost Super. Please let me know if you get it out there. Best wishes, William

    EntertainTheBrain.com Relaunched

    Hello All,

    Thanks so much to all backers for your support. And, to all new backers, thank you and welcome.

    I'd like to announce a relaunch of EntertainTheBrain.com. The revised site should make the story more accessible to site visitors. As a part of this relaunch, I've added a new audio book tickler (MP3). It's just over 5 minutes in length. (Please give it a click, below.)

    It's a great way to get into the story if you're short on time -- and, a great way to help spread the word. Please feel free (even encouraged) to email copies to all your friends and family.

    Thanks all! I hope you enjoy the new site and materials.

    Best regards,
    William

    The book looks like it will be a lot of fun. Great job on the promotion video, too! I'm in. Best of luck with the project and funding. I'm looking forward to receiving our copy. Thanks!
