HRG CharityHis Robot Girlfriend: Charity is live for preorder at Amazon.  Unfortunately it already has two 1-star reviews.  How did this happen?  Well apparently, some unscrupulous individual tried to publish a plagiarized version of my first His Robot Girlfriend book and a couple of observant and wonderful people posted reviews warning everyone what it was.

Somehow though, those two reviews got stuck to my new book.  This has happened before at Amazon.  Some reviews for His Robot Wife, got stuck to His Robot Wife: Patience is a Virtue.  It has something to do with their automatic review process.  Not really a problem, except in this case.

Anyway, you can rest assured that His Robot Wife: Charity is my book and I’m not plagiarizing myself or anyone else.  After the book comes out, please feel free to review it, good or bad, based on the correct book.

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.

Mike Smith’s life was crap, living all alone, years after his wife had died and his children had grown up and moved away. Then he saw the commercial for the Daffodil. Far more than other robots, the Daffodil could become anything and everything he wanted it to be. Mike’s life is about to change.

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

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.

In His Robot Wife, the novella-length sequel to His Robot Girlfriend, it is the year 2037 and Mike has been married to his robot wife, Patience, for five years. Troubles are on the horizon though. 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 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 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?
