Kat and Mouse: Guns For Hire
Hi everyone!

Call me Ace. I'm yet another online fiction writer like my fellows Kess, Nomesque, Ryan, and windy.

I wanted to share my serial with other readers here. It's a cyberpunk action-adventure serial called KAT AND MOUSE: GUNS FOR HIRE.

Here's a blurb:
Quote:
It's 2042 in the California Free State metroplex of Bay City. Kat and Mouse are a pair of ronin--guns for hire--trying to eke out a living.

They have the skill. They have the will.

And they have the bad habit of getting in over their heads.

Which usually means run-ins with rival ronin, punkergangs, the mob, the Yakuza, cyborg assassins, and whatever else Bay City decides to throw at them.

But they always get the job done.

Their way.

Heaven help Bay City...
(This was actually posted on another part of this forum by user mtravellerh some months back.)

I'm in the middle of trying to figure out how to adapt the serial into a mobile reader format to make things easier for those folks who prefer it. I think I'll be checking out those sections of the forum that deal with formats.

Hope all-y'all get a chance to visit the site and have a read.

And a shout out to all my WFG peeps!

Quite like the look of that Ace.

I'm not the man, but I'm sure some of our more technically astute members will be able to give you some sound advice about converting it into multiple e-reader formats.

Moejoe has at least given you a flying start with a good looking front cover.

Quickest way to get it done is through Feedbooks and Smashwords. Simple interfaces and all pretty much cut & paste

I've heard of Smashwords. I take it Feedbooks is a similar site?

I will have to check them out. Thanks for the tip.

Feedbooks doesn't have a commerce portion (yet) whereas Smashwords launched specifically to allow publication and commercialisation of authors' works. Both have their advantages, and there's no harm in publishing your work with both
