Headless Fun for Everyone!
Hey all. Thanks so much to those people who bought Tales of Tourniquet Vol 1 straight out of the gate! As I hope to lay groundwork to really establish the series over the five volumes I'm planning to write (gotta get that full TV-esque season in!) I am going to be putting ToT up free for Kindle for just three days starting January 13th.
So what, you say? You're drowning in free kindle books, you say? Okay, how can I convince you to pick up a copy of a smart-ass dark fantasy serial with a cold-blooded, head-slinging, bounty-hunting heroine?
If that didn't do it, well, keep in mind that she hangs out with:
-a noble barbarian with a penchant for trashy novels;
-a sleazy, obsessive merchant who keeps a dead fairy in a box;
-an air-headed stripper with a whimsical worldview and the ability to see through supernatural disguise.
So, there's someone for just about everyone to relate to!
And if none of that worked, there are a multitude of blood-sucking and/or soul-sucking fiends for our 'heroes' to cross swords and fangs with, some of which are even less socially acceptable than our heroine!
So check it out... again, it's free from the 13th to the 15th. In case words like "sleazy" and "stripper" didn't clue you in, there's some mature material involved, so if you like your fantasy squeaky clean, it may not be for you.
I had a lot of fun writing it, I hope you have a lot of fun reading it, let me know!

Tourniquet: Head Hunter
...How did that title NOT come to mind before publication? Ah well, best not to title a series with a silly pun, I suppose.
So I hope the first wave of people who picked Tales of Tourniquet Volume 1 up liked it (I'll probably never know - I've learned from the dead silence following Hate Ghost that I'm not exactly a review magnet, and I flat-out refuse to get them dishonestly). It's free for two more days, so if you want to try it, it's now or never (or later, but that's less dramatic).
Still, I like to imagine it struck a cord with some people, maybe gave you a chuckle or two. Perhaps there was a character you felt you might eventually bond with. If you are one of these people from my imagination - in which case you'll be surprised to learn that you look like Doris Yeh or Cortney Palm - good news! There will be five total volumes of headless bounty hunting - or at least that's the plan. So do the charitable thing and let me know what you thought of it, and I promise I'll quit redesigning you according to my whims!
And now, to celebrate the fact that I shifted a few copies, I'm going to go watch Dead Snow 2. I don't know how that's relevant, except maybe that the undead are my people.
Over and out!
