True, the thread is about zombies and so is his book.
The reason for the creation of "
Author Self-Promotions" was that you had a lot of people signing on MR and immediately spamming their books.
So they put
Author Self-Promotions in the main section. And the first posting in that section is
Welcome Authors & Publishers! (please read this first).
"We've created this "Author Self-Promotions" forum as a place for authors and publishers to promote, sell, or give away their own ebook titles. If you've posted in a different forum, you can ask a moderator to move the thread by clicking the "report post" button ; other members may also signal misplaced threads, which will be moved."
"pigeonweather" has a new account and promotes his book in the most obvious area. Some have called that spam, but personally I don’t mind, too much.
He also has a posting in "
Author Self-Promotions" called
Unwritten Rules of Impossible Things that he posted
BEFORE he posted here in the Zombie thread. That was why I said
"I could be wrong. But you do know that there is a place for this kind of post, don't you?"
The "
Author Self-Promotions" is a better place to go to for this type of thing.
On a side note;
I have read his book. For the most part it is pretty good. Not great, but pretty good.
The problem is that
there is a lot of potentiality in the book. And most of it is left dangling in the wind.
Tom Lichtenberg may have a very good future ahead of him. But I think that he needs some help to develop himself. I get the feeling that he produced this book entirely by himself. If so, he needs an editor. If not, then he needs a better editor.
So I would recommend the book for a casual read, but hope that he'll rewrite it. Especially the end.
Thanks, Tom, for the link to your other books.
