I'm working on things, although I don't think it's quite your genre. My main thing besides STREET is a sweet medieval fantasy action romp with more grit than a bowl of gravel, called Written In Blood. That one's really going to knock 'em dead when it's published.

Regards,
Ryan

Just bought it from Smashwords. I'll probably start it tonight since I'm waiting for the formatting to be fixed on Dead Pigeons.

I started the book last night and so far I really like it. I like how it jumped into the action without a long lead in.

I'm looking forward to it and would have put a big dent in it, but my wife made me turn off my reader at ~1am

So far I highly recommend it.

I'm glad you're enjoying it already, and I hope you'll find the rest of the book as good as the beginning. Maybe even the rest of the series.

Welcome to all of you!
I can't keep up with all of the generous free books you are offering us. Just remember that half of us can't read Kindle-only formats. EPub Rules!

THANKS for the books!

Say what? I do offer non-Kindle formats, so this post has confused me quite completely...

I just finished the first book and loved it. I really like techno-punk and it reminded me a lot of Gibson's books, which I also like.

I'm really looking forward to the rest of the series.

The book is available in epub format. In fact, it's available as html, mobi, epub, pdf, rtf, lrf, pdb, and txt, so pick your poison No stinkin' DRM either!

It's not technically "free" on smashwords, but for $2, you can't go wrong. I think it's worth more, myself.

It's here: smashwords link

Here's an idea I've been tossing around for a Street: Empathy cover. It uses the international symbol for 'empathy' as a central iconic image, and you could carry through this central iconic theme for each part of the trilogy, and complement each change with a background colour change.

I quite like that! It's well-designed, simple and effective.

There'll be an omnibus with the whole trilogy in, once it's finished, and I can just imagine combining the three symbols onto one cover. I may have to badger you about that sometime.

Alan: Get your own thread!

Yeah, you better run!

Maybe I'll come over and spam some of my links. I just might...
