DBM Update

Well, it's been an interesting experience becoming a newly published author, to say the least. There are issues with my bio on some websites where my book is listed, and although I'm trying to resolve these issues, it blows my mind that these websites are so irresponsible as to just list any "Darren Browns" bio instead of actually doing some research to find out the correct information before putting it out to the internet. Strangely enough, I noticed it on a site out of India, first. (which makes me laugh out loud for reals now).
Since my last post, I created an e-book on Lulu.com and a kindle version on Amazon.com. The book is listed on the major book retail sites and I guess if it becomes a good seller, it could go out to the retail stores to the book shelves. VERY exciting if that happens. I've sold 40 copies so far from lulu.com, which I feel is pretty good since there has been little to no advertising of it (as I'm a starving artist).
I've begun writing my next book, "Mnemonic Wars". I'm SO excited to begin getting this book (which began as a dream I had 5 nights in a row over a decade ago) out of my head. I shall pour my life and imagination into it and see what develops. I promise (to myself mostly), that I'll get it done in much less time than it took me to write and finish DBM. It'll be a fun process and you can get updates on it here and on Facebook. Which, by the way, there are pages on FaceBook for both of the books. Just do a search for them by name, if you're interested in "liking" them for updates and news and other fun nonsense.
Thanks for reading, friends.
I'll be in touch.
