Well...We have ordered another 100 copies. The sales are going much better than expected!!! So far, the most interesting (and furthest we'll have to ship a copy) is to the Italian artist Allesandro Bavari...who, well, resides in Italy. He has requested a copy of the novel...anyone know how to convert twelve American dollars into Italian...what, Euros? Anyway, feedback has been positive, sales happenin' and I'm getting the urge to create some more artwork based on the series...I'd better since the show is coming up soon.

Just the other day someone asked how many books we had sold...as of today (1/28/03) we have sold 90 copies. We started selling on 1/15/03! Needless to say I am a little excited...Also...coming in March...I will be having a showing of my "Entropy Gate" inspired art work at the MOCHA ROOM (a very cool coffee shop) in (of all places) Decatur, Indiana. I should have about ten original paintings and some work from the VOW OF THE SWORD artist Jake. I will be signing copies of the book, though I'm not sure of the exact date yet. If all goes as planned I will have some of the "Entropy Gate" inspired music for sale as well.
For those of you who have read through Entropy Gate - Journey...yes, I am aware that there were some spelling errors...I have a great deal of respect for professional editors and now I understand why they charge so much. Well...errors aside, I hope you enjoyed the story. I am currently editting the follow-up ENTROPY GATE - BEYOND. Though my site says the release date is Jan 2004, I have high hopes that it will be out much sooner! Those of you who have asked me about the graphic-novel-web-story-illustrated...uh...story things...(what should I call them?)...well I just got the first part of VOW OF THE SWORD. What a rush. The artist is incredible and by Wed. 29 I hope to have a sample of his work on the site. It should be ready to go by mid Feb. Hang in there Katy!
All right...I had this up before but I accidently erased it. I plan to use this blog as a place to discuss:
1) My novel, Entropy Gate - Journey (for more info on that go to entropygate.com)
2) Art work (based on the novel as well as other works).
3) Selp publishing.
4) Writing in general.
As soon as a figure out how to set up a comment and reply on this blog, I'll do so and we can banter...
