Getting on Board

Hi friends and followers and hopefully soon to be fans,

I'm getting my "pre-Kickstarter" campaign rolling to try to gain some steam and a fan base going into the Kickstarter campaign for my novel, The Last Interrogation, as well the subsequent release of the novel itself.

For those of you who don't know what Kickstarter is, it's a way to help artist and writers and musicians and filmmakers and developers fund cool projects and you can find out more at www.kickstarter.com and I'll explain more about my specific campaign when I'm ready to roll it out.

But that's not really what this post is about, this post is about you and your opinions and having those opinions contribute to the birth of what I hope you'll find is a great novel.

But how can you really know? Well, I put a lot of time and thought into that—and this is what I came up with.

I'm going to post some samples from the book on Facebook—sometimes a couple of words, sometimes a paragraph or two—not only to give you an idea of what the book is about, but so you can see if you like the writing style.

I am asking that if you like it, please feel free to repost it so that other people can see if they like it too. Really, it's all I've got for early stage marketing at this point and your help will be more valuable than you know.

I'll try not to inundate you with waves of quotes, just one every couple of days or so to give you a feel of where the book is going.

Even though the first novel does revolve around the events of a man set on releasing a biological agent  and these characters are forced to make decisions that effect humanity on a global scale. I can tell you up front that it is not your typical spy vs. bad guy novel, it's not James Bond and it's not Jason Bourne—the characters in this novel, both good and bad, are real people in a realistic and horrific situation. Just like you and I, each of them are both good and bad and at its best, the novel forces you to ask yourself what you would do in the same situation.

I hope you'll find something of yourself in each character—well … in their good traits anyway.   :)

So, again, if you like the quotes, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE pass them on and comment and repost and do all of those good things that social networking is supposed to help us do.

All of you are my friends and I would truly appreciate your feedback, so feel free to message me with your thoughts and comments, too.

Thanks again in advance,

—Rob
