Thanks stangri, glad you're enjoying it! I'm also relieved to hear that the formatting looks good on the Nook. If anyone finds otherwise, please let me know.

Wanted to mention that in addition to being offered for $1.59 on Amazon (per the title of this post) you can get it for free at my website: http://samlandstrom.com/metagame.aspx

I changed the price on the Amazon Store to 1 cent.

Sam Landstrom · 04-01-2010, 11:24 AM

Looks like I have a book deal in the works. Grab
MetaGame while I can still give to you for 99 cents!

Ever read anything by British author Jeff Noon?

Belatedly getting back to this thread. I lost it for a while. (:

Thanks Joel! No, I haven't checked out that author yet, but I've read several books suggested by readers now. I'll have to check him out.

BTW, it looks like there's a book deal coming along so grab this book now while it's still free. (:

Your welcome!

BTW, the novel has been picked up by a publisher and will be getting re-released in Sept. You can pre-order the paperback here or just grab the current FREE Nook version now.

Thanks,
Sam

You can subscribe to my mailing list in about 15 seconds here.

BTW, MetaGame got picked up by a publisher so it's off Amazon right now. It'll be up again in Sept (professionally edited with new cover). You can pre-order the paperback or you can get the curren version of the ebook FREE now.

Thanks!

First of all, congrats on the publication. Secondly, thanks for the free ebook. Just for that, here's some karma.

Now, I have a question. How come you're providing it for free if it's being published? From my (rudimentary) understanding of the publishing industry, publishers wouldn't come near a novel that is already available for free on the net. In fact, I believe they are reluctant even if you've made a 'significant' portion of it available freely.

As grateful as we all are, I think maybe you should rescind the offer.
