Released today (finally): the digital edition of "50 Years of Text Games: From Oregon Trail to AI Dungeon," a 600+ page book exploring the many fascinating histories of interactive fiction. (And as a bonus, the physical edition started shipping in the UK/EU today too, with rest of world orders not far behind...) #InteractiveFiction#Games#BookLaunch https://aareed.itch.io/50-years-of-text-games
Question for the #readingcommunity :
If I were to put together some swag bags of book merch for book clubs who decide to read my book, what kind of stuff should I include?
And #authors, have you done anything like this before? What did you offer?
Caught the Spirit of Tasmania ferry last night with my publisher, Lindy Cameron, then drove 4 hours to Hobart. We’ll be launching Marie Heitz’s book The Demon Alexander, which I edited. Then onto 3 weeks of mentoring writers and the Terror Australis crime fiction festival! #travel#tasmania#WritingFestival#bookLaunch

It's launch day for #MirrorOfWolves. I just had a hugely chaotic move a few days ago, and am surrounded by boxes and having to deal with "issues" the building inspector missed. And am back to work at the day job, too. Tired, stressed, covered in bruises (including a couple of really big ones I can't remember how I got) and do not have anywhere near the amount of time to devote to this launch as I should.
But my second book is out in the world today and that makes me happy. 😊
