I’ve been testing Kindle Unlimited for six months, in which I have made $13.28. 

Because of this extremely low earning, I will be removing my first book from Kindle Unlimited. The last day The After will be available on Kindle Unlimited is October 2, 2022. 

After that, I will still sell ebooks on Amazon but I’ll also publish it wide and consider selling copies on my website for a reduced price.

What to do with Past the Fall

2 Created on June 05, 2022 By mtconley

What to do with Past the Fall

Please answer the following Questions. This will help me determine the fate of Past the Fall.

1 / 4

Would you read serialized episodes on Kindle Vella? (Any episode after episode 3 would cost tokens)

Yes, I would No, I wouldn't

2 / 4

If I provided links to single serialized episodes (chapters) in each newsletter, would you read, AND would you interactively engage in a Facebook group?

Yes, I would read and interactively engage in a Facebook group Yes, I would read. But not engage. No, I wouldn't read or engage.

3 / 4

Which would you prefer?

Single serialized episodes released with interactive engagement The whole book written and given out to newsletter readers for free

4 / 4

If the full book is the chosen direction, would you prefer it written as a classic novella or with each chapter in a serialized fashion like I would release on Kindle Vella?
Serialized fashion would mean every chapter would have a start, middle and ending. Often leaving off with a hook to interest you in the chapter. Classically, a novella would is written where one chapter can build off the previous one and does not need to concern itself with each having a beginning, middle, and end.

Classic Novella style Serialized would be cool (and you could release on Kindle Vella)

Your score is

The average score is 25%

Honest review of The Night Queen’s Curse

The Night Queen's CurseThe Night Queen’s Curse by Niro J. Hayle
My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars

A great Dark Woods Fantasy

I really liked this story. I like how this story differs from any I fantasy I have read. It introduces character ideas that are different and I enjoy the MC being female and building up confidence along the way. The main character loses her very close sister and will do anything to get her back. This travel to a Dark forest and travel to… I won’t spoil it. But somewhere else. It’s a fun Fantasy read.

There was a little more spice than I would normally go after. Not a lot, and it didn’t take away from the story. But I wouldn’t let anyone too young read this. But that is my personal parent’s perspective.

I’ll read the following books. My honest review would be 4.5 stars

Note: The link to the book is an Amazon affiliate link. It won’t change your cost but will earn me a few cents.

As of 4/29/2022 Episodes 1-3 of Past the Fall are now available on Kindle Vella. 

The intent of this serialized story is to all the readers to be more involved in the story development. After each episode, I will request feedback on the Past the Fall Facebook group. This feedback will help shape future episodes.

At least, that’s what we thought at the time. But life always finds a way and so do we.

It’s ten years past the fall of society.
Ten years past the fall of man.
Ten years past the fall of everything.

The world past the fall is hard, but some of us are harder. We have made progress, but we still must question, do we have what it takes to survive? What it takes to truly live? The will to do what needs to be done?

The jury is out for many, but a select few called the 13 do.

I’m getting supper excited for Book 2 of The Afterverse. I would like to announce the title of Book 2 of the Afterverse series is: 

Destiny’s Crow Draft Description: 

Destiny’s Crow is an amazing addition to the Afterverse series that takes place immediately after Book 1, The After. 

Currently in a coma, Artis’s reality has taken a few twists.

Zoe, the rest of the crew, and friends step up to repair the Destiny’s Crow and find a cure for Artis and Val. On the run from The Faithful, they are in for some surprises and must seek assistance from what will become close relationships and friendships. But the faithful are insidious and a determined to capture Zoe.

Along the way Artis, Zoe and the team learn some truly heinous things about an incredibly evil plan of the Faithful. Artis, being driven by a strong sense of right and wrong, must work to defend the universe against seemingly unsurmountable odds. Ultimately, leading to a showdown like none you have read.

What will come of our team during this time of discovery and risk? And how does the team evolve and build relationships under these amazingly stressful conditions?

If you like things in the Sci-Fi Space Opera/Space Fantasy/light Sci-Fi genre such as The Mandalorian, The Expanse, Farscape, Firefly, Renegade Star, you will probably enjoy this book.

The image associated with this post contains a temporary cover. I hope to get the real cover art soon. 

I have room for a few more Beta Readers. Please use this link to sign up if you are interested.

Availability of The After Book 1 of the Afterverse by Mike Conley

I have pulled this book from being published Wide (to many ebook retailers worldwide like Kobo, Apple, Google, B&N). My book is now only available on Amazon

Now that I am published exclusively to Amazon, I have also published my book on Kindle Select, which means it is now available on Kindle Unlimited.  

You can find the Kindle Unlimited version here: https://amzn.to/3j8iEVw (or use Buy It Now at Amazon button)

The reason I have made this choice is I have only sold 1 book outside of Amazon. Making it available to Kindle Unlimited will probably give it more exposure. I will revisit this choice in three months when I get the option to pull the book from Kindle Select or continue it. 

Thank you. Happy reading.

I am partnering with some amazing authors to bring readers a wonderful new event. The Sci-Fi Space Opera Showcase is an event where a bunch of authors are making available, for free, 33+ Space Opera books.

Yes, I said free. 33+ FREE Space Opera books.

The event starts on March 20, 2022 and runs through April 05, 2022.

This is an amazing chance to try out books from dozens of authors.

There are full books, short stories, and first in series. Most of the titles look interesting to me. I personally plan on downloading many, if not all, of these books. I hope you all can enjoy them too.

This is an amazing event. I will even make this a little more amazing. Feel free to share the event. Make a PDF of my newsletter and share on social media or just forward the newsletter. If you know someone that may like some FREE Space Opera books, share it.

Or you can follow me on the various social media platforms listed on my https://miketconley.com/links/ page and forward the event from one of my posts.

Or you can even just share this link:
https://books.bookfunnel.com/space-opera-fun/w8upmg83x3

I really hope you enjoy some or all of the books these amazing authors have made available to you. I know I will.

The Hardcover release of my new book The After is finally here. It is available, along with the paperback, only on Amazon. However, the eBook is available in many stores as well. Such as Kobo, B&N, Apple, Google and more.

About the Book

After an unexpected death, Artis finds himself in a new reality. A new universe with advanced technology and space travel. A reality he could only dream of in his past life. In this marvelous new reality, he finds he has more than he could ever ask for, including an amazing starship and loads of money. He makes some great friends and finds an amazing woman, Zoe, that he falls hard for.

In short, his new life is amazing. And he loves it. However, Artis questions why. Why him and why all this amazing stuff? What is this reality and how do some idiots get away with just about anything? And why does the food suck?

With help from his newfound friends, Artis sets out to enjoy life and discover more about this new reality. However, some idiots have other ideas. For reasons unknown to the team, a religious fanatical organization seeks to capture his newfound love. They will do whatever it takes to get her. Artis, aided by his amazing new friends and his super advanced AI, will do anything and everything to protect Zoe.

In a reality where most people are good and few laws exist, a couple of idiots can mess it up for the rest of us. How will Artis and his team deal with this reality? Can they be free to do as they like and can anyone get a decent meal?

The release of my first novel, The After, has seen many people share their love and best wishes. That inspired me to run a month-long promotion. But after talking to several other Indie authors and a few avid readers, I decided to take this promotion even further. 

I’m extending the Share the Love Promotion to March 10th. 

AND

I’m taking the eBook price down to $.99. That’s 80% off the original price.

This is to thank those that have supported me and will support me. 

I ask one favor for this awesome price deal. Please, if you like the book leave comments where ever you bought it from and/or on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60228739-the-after

I hope my work entertains you. It certainly entertained me writing it.
