One-Year!

Last Day to Sale!

Max Books!, Misc , , , , , ,

Time will tell if that title, spoken aloud, is only cleverer in my head.

Anyway, as of writing this, there is currently fourteen hours left before the anniversary MEGA-Sale event ends, meaning you’ve only got that long to pick up a copy of Unusual Events, Dead Silver, or One Drink at a discount. After midnight tonight, they go back to their normal prices.

You can still buy them at those prices, of course. And you’ll still get a kicking read out of them. You’ll just have to pay an ordinary price, rather than a temporary celebration price.

And in case you’ve missed it, here are the direct details: for the remaining fourteen hours, Unusual Events is 25% off, Dead Silver is 50% off, and One Drink is free.

Grab ’em while you can.

One Year Online: A Look Back

Max Misc , ,

Right, so as of yesterday, Unusual Things has been online for a whole year. You likely knew that. After all, it’s the reason for the big sale I’ve got going on this week. You know, the one where all my books are super cheap?

Yes, that was a shameless plug. It’s my site.

And yes, I know it’s not the only place I post online. Being a Better Writer is, actually, three years old this month. But since I initially ran that on another site before moving over here … semantics!

Anyway, I figured for the fun of it, now that one year has expired, a look back on Unusual Things‘ stats in that time would be amusing and insightful. I’ve got numbers! Let’s look at them! For fun! And maybe some sort of science!

Anniversary MEGA-Sale!

Max Books! , , , , , , , , , ,

WHOA! Unusual Things has been on the web for one year this Wednesday! Which means sweet things for this week’s collection of posts, like a Reddit AMA this Wednesday to mark the one-year date!

But you saw MEGA-Sale and clicked this right? So a MEGA-Sale (yes, I’m going to keep capitalizing this like it’s the 90s) you shall receive! On everything. For the entire week. Over 320,000 words (1100 pages) worth of fiction.

That’s right, all through this week, starting today (Monday) through Friday, every single thing I’ve published is on sale. Starting at 25% off, and jumping all the way down to free. Had your eye on Dead Silver? Been waiting to snatch up a copy of Unusual Events? Now’s the time.

Hop on over to my Amazon.com page to check them all out at once (note, however, that due to a strange, and in my opinion dumb, quirk, that page does not show sales, you have to click each book to see the sale). Or, if you’re so inclined, use the Books page here on Unusual Things!

The clock is ticking, so grab ’em fast!

One Year Online?

Max Misc , ,

You guys should just be aware that next week marks the one-year anniversary of Unusual Things, which means—of course—that there’s some special stuff floating in the wings. After all, the first birthday is worth celebrating, is it not? Especially with some of the accomplishments that have happened in that time. I won’t give all the details away just yet, since I’ll save those for next week, but I can at least hint at one of them.

The sale.

That’s right. I italicized that one. What would a celebration be without a sale? As I said, no details yet, but if you’ve been waiting on picking up anything, well, get your wallet ready.

Get some questions ready too, while you’re at it.

Was that more than one hint? Dang. I’d better call this good and run. See you all Monday!
