Oops Part III

HRG CharityFor some reason I had much more trouble getting my manuscript ready for publication with His Robot Girlfriend: Charity that I usually do.  As soon as I fixed one formatting problem, another popped up.  Finally, I got a message form Smashwords that everything was fine, except that I had an extra line at the end of each paragraph.  There!  It’s fixed!

Finally everything is set and the book is now available for preorder at Smashwords, Amazon, and iBooks.  It should be available for preorder at the other bookstores that offer such, soon.

If you enjoyed the previous His Robot Girlfriend and His Robot Wife books, I think you will like this one.  I personally think its the best of the series.  Keep an eye out for it.

His Robot Girlfriend is also available free from a variety of great ebook vendors.

Oops Part II

HRG CharityYesterday I talked about creating a big error in my book.  Well I did it again, sort of.  I was setting up my newest book for publication at Smashwords and created a really big error.  The error wasn’t in the book, but in Smashwords itself.  Instead of typing the title as His Robot Girlfriend: Charity, I typed His Robot Wife: Charity.  Since I typed it in the title section, I couldn’t just edit it.  I had to start the process all over (The Smashwords meta-data reviewer probably hates me).

In any case, it shouldn’t affect the publication timetable.  His Robot Girlfriend: Charity is available for preorder at Amazon now as well as Smashwords, and should be available for preorder at all other ebookstores soon.  It is still slated for release on January 16th, 2015.

His Robot Wife – 99 cents for nook!

Prop 22 promises to annul marriages between humans and robots. And Patience hasn’t quite been herself. Is there something wrong, or does she just need a software upgrade?

HRG CharityThe draft of His Robot Girlfriend: Charity is complete and the revision has begun.  Right now, the release date is scheduled for January 16, 2015.  Watch this space for more information, such as when pre-orders will be available.

Robotics engineer Dakota Hawk has problems.  His life is falling apart.  And even he doesn’t know why he bought a used, and seemingly non-functional, Daffodil Nonne.  When your life turns to crap, which should you worry about more– your past or your future?  How easy is it really to remake yourself and start over?  And will having your own robot girlfriend help or make things even more difficult?

His Robot Girlfriend: Charity

HRG CharityI mentioned that I was working on a new robot book, and as I write this, I am on the last chapter of the draft.  So I feel like I’m close enough to announce it.  The new book is His Robot Girlfriend: Charity.  The story takes place two years after events in His Robot Wife: Patience is a Virtue.  It isn’t really a sequel, more like a related storyline.

I should be finishing the draft any day now.  As soon as I do, I’ll plan out a schedule for the editing process and determine a release date.  Right now, I’d guess some time just before Christmas.  Watch this space for more information.

His Robot Wife – Just 99 cents for Kindle

His Robot WifeFive years ago, Mike Smith was an unhappy man living all alone.  Then he purchased a Daffodil.  Far more than regular robots, his Daffodil Patience, changed his life in ways that he had never thought possible.  Now it is the year 2037, and Mike and Patience have been married for five years.  Retired and enjoying life, Mike thought that all his troubles were behind him, but it seems as though they are creeping up again.  California Proposition 22 proposes to define a person as a biological entity, thereby annulling marriages, like Mike’s and Patience’s, performed in other states.  Battle lines have been drawn, at least as far as the proponents of the bill are concerned.  Now Mike must muster his own support to defeat the measure.  But there is more going on than just politics.  Daffodil, the robot maker, is in the news again.  Hardware issues are leaving robots across the globe unable to function.  Is it only an antenna issue?  Now Patience herself is behaving oddly.  Is there something really wrong with her, or does she just need a software upgrade?
