Get all slugged up this spring with a trip on the Slug Train

Instead of writing new books or editing older drafts, I sometimes just make commercials for my Three Vases trilogy.
See how many MS Paint drawings you can find in the video.

@RoboftheHayes I really enjoyed Witch King and its sequel by Martha Wells as audiobooks.
The Calamitous Bob is also an awesome audiobook from Soundbooth Theater. That one really impressed me

@LordTBR_FFA I just picked up a box set of Amulet recently. I haven't had a chance to read it myself yet but I have a couple students working through it at the moment. They also like Haru, which is an interesting adventure. Still making my mind up about it. I'll check out Last Kids on Earth!

@jdlrosell @RoboftheHayes Jesse Nelson killed it on the back cover art too

@RoboftheHayes Wow. That sure is a sexy lobster on the banner.

Thanks for sharing! Looks like some great books to dive into. I'm definitely going to check out Stone and Flesh

@Lyons_Pen @JoeBerne1 I don't know if putting "Award Losing Author" on my next cover is going to help me sell more copies

Sometimes you have to commit to the weird ideas you have.
Father of the Sexiest Lobster is my newest story. A time loop story that's like Taken combined with Spongebob or something.
Currently only available on Royal Road. Coming soon(ish) to paperback and kindle

[Chad Retterath @cmretterath]

@ZB_Steele Separately? Not scared at all.
A bear wizard? Horrified.

[Chad Retterath @cmretterath]

@timmckay52 After writing my last couple books specifically for Royal Road instead of straight to kindle and paperback, I have found myself writing much shorter chapters. It's almost one scene per chapter to hit about 2.5k words.
I need to practice writing longer chapters again!

[Chad Retterath @cmretterath]

@nate_rett58 One of those little boxes of nerds

[Chad Retterath @cmretterath]

@The_Elmerian Great idea. Thanks!

Deficient Wizard didn't make it into #spfboxi this year.
It's a bummer to not make it two years in a row, but there's always the next one!

@joelee__ I missed it for the second year in a row.
Bummer, but that's how it works!
