I have two quick updates for you today that I'm pretty excited about:
1. As I mentioned in a previous post, I entered my story 'Eleven Till Midnight' in Amazon's Breakthrough Novel Contest. The first 2 chapters are now available to download FOR FREE from Amazon. This may be the only chance I'll ever have to break into the "mid-list" group in publishing. Please take a few minutes to read these first 2 chapters. I think you'll like them. Of course, I also hope that you'll post a review while you're there at Amazon. One click (see the sidebar to the right) will get you to my story at Amazon. Or you can search for 'Eleven Till Midnight' or 'Jonathon Wise' at Amazon.com.
2. I was notified today that my short vampire story was accepted into the Amazon Shorts Program. They said it would take a couple of weeks to get it up on the website, but then you should be able to find it in their digital downloads or by searching under my name 'Jonathon Wise'. The cost is only 49cents. The title of the story is 'Survival - The Fall of Post #17'. As I mentioned previously, this is the first of a series of short stories that depicts the battle for survival of the human race. I don't think you'll find it quite like anything you've ever read on vampires. It's hard, fast and utterly realistic.
There you have it. I'm hoping for the best. Until next time, remember that everyone needs a break now and then. J/W
