Mountain Man (zombie/survival horror)

Hello,

Just to let you know about my new ebook (available only at Amazon as of now) called Mountain Man.



http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006MV7I6U

Boomstick.
Samurai bat.
Motorcycle leather.
And the will to live amongst the unliving.

Augustus Berry lives a day-to-day existence comprised of waking up, getting drunk, and preparing for the inevitable day when “they” will come up the side of his mountain and penetrate his fortress. Living on the outskirts of a city and scavenging for whatever supplies remain after civilization died two years ago, Gus knows that every time he goes down into undead suburbia could be his last.

Some nice new reviews on Amazon. Also, book two has been finished and is awaiting its turn at the editor.

Keith,

Who or what company do you use for editing? I have done my own in the past and at times it has bit me in butt=)

Thanks!

I'm interested in reading your book. Are you going to be putting it up for sale anywhere else say like smashwords? I don't have a kindle.

Hi,

I use Red Adept Publishing http://redadeptpublishing.com/ for all of my titles except the first two (and it shows.) I also recommend getting two proofreaders as well, as you can never have too many. No, don't do it yourself--this is one area that it pays for itself if you get someone else.

Hi Morgan,

I have an agreement with Amazon and so won't be selling it anywhere else (although the time might come where I'll be selling it right from my site--but that's none too soon.)

You could pick it up from there and then use this converter:

"Zombies.... they creep me out."


Still doing well on Amazon. Still only Amazon I'm afraid (I don't like Smashwords anymore.)
