No man, thank you! What a wild ride
The Dent in the Universe by EW Doc Parris book cover
In the best possible way - wtf did I just read? You could say @ewdocparris.com ‘Dent in the Universe’ is a serial killer-time machine-end of days-zombie apocalypse-horror. Or you could just say it’s brilliant - blistering, gripping and utterly original. Loved it!

My first book, released in March 2023 has hit 700 Zon ratings. Never in a million years did I think that was going to happen. Thank you to all those who read it and sent me on this wild ride! #firstcontact #sciencefictionbooks #sciencefiction #scfibooks #scifi

Happily partnered but fancy a blind date? I’ve got you covered
Can’t wait for my first date!
We’ve got some wonderful things lined up!! Working with indie authors like @rexburke.bsky.social, @danifinnwrites.bsky.social, @rangeralthynia.bsky.social, and more to bring you blind dates with a book has been amazing!
We also plan on interviewing these authors and posting it on the website!
You’ll be back
Ooh I missed one! *Goes back to uploaded manuscript*
I usually add Easter eggs and ‘Hide and Seek’ is no different - this time it is the collected sign-offs and one-liners from the #Schwarzenegger oeuvre. Kudos to the first to spot them all

Graphic with yellow text at top, whit etext to the right and a book to the left. The book is River in the Galaxy and has a blue spacey cover with a wooden ship flying through outer space. The text from top reads: Earned out! 347 sales. 3,032 copies distributed, 18,540 KU page reads
MY DEBUT EARNED OUT!
It's taken 3 years + 1 month to earn back the £470 I spent on cover, editing, isbns, merch etc. Considering all the factors against me/this book, I'm so freaking proud. It's the *first* book I wrote in English.
I hope I can hit 350 copies sold this month 👀

The Fall Is All There Is
For Indie April, I’m sharing a few of my favorite indie reads. Next up: The Fall Is All There Is by @cmcaplanwrites.bsky.social
This book is wild, violent, deeply inventive, and exploding with vibrant characters. One of my all time favorites.
Had a review for Special Delivery that said 'Must be a 2nd book getting the characters back together for more adventures?'
Guess what? It's more of the same fast-paced star-crew SciFi in 'Hide and Seek' though with an ending no beta reader saw coming

Thanks! I'm really happy with it how it turned out

This series is so good!!!! I can’t recommend it enough!!!! #booksky
Cover of Orphan Planet by Rex Burke, with a caption that says - Home sweet...oops
For readers put off by 0.99 books because they can't be any good because they're too cheap, I am delighted to announce that Orphan Planet is now £3.99 / $4.99 again and thus a proper book worthy of multiple purchasing

I don't subscribe to many newsletters but Fantasy Duck by @jaredleys.bsky.social has just landed, making 'a case for ducks in fiction' and inviting writers to use more ducks in their stories, and this is the sort of newsletter I can fully get behind
This book is a blast! Highly rec! Fast and fun!
"Great start to a series - well-written, light and cozy, with a unique take on a space travel/adventure and found family."
