Chris Wright (author_chris_g_wright) | 5 comments Hello everyone. My name is Chris G. Wright. By new-born I mean that I've JUST entered the self-publishing industry. Being a first-timer, I am certain to make mistakes along the way, but that would also be the best way to describe life itself.

The book you see has been in development for over 3 years, but only in January did family and close friends convince me to publish it. Although I have not "studied" the written word (and I'm sure not many writers have) I take it seriously and I have plenty of imagination that I intend to spread across a 6-book series. As I've had no previous experience with writing (instead of publishing, I kept everything locked up in a hard-drive on an old laptop since the days of Pentium III - which I thought was clever at the time) I am looking for ways to evolve as a writer. Your honest reviews and ratings, although they might hurt my feelings *puppy eyes*, they will show me the way to better writing.

And if there is anything that I can do to help a fellow science fiction lover, then all you need to do is ask.

Best wishes,
Chris G. Wright

First of all, I see only a Smashwords edition, and I couldn't find it on Smashwords. If you're ready to publish, you should also be on Amazon, since it's by far the biggest book dealer out there. For paperbacks, go to Createspace and/or Lulu.com. I use both.

Good luck!

Chris Wright (author_chris_g_wright) | 5 comments Hi Ken, thanks for the heads up. It is on Amazon:

As for Smashwords, I'm not sure why you can't see it. I can, but I guess I'm the author.

I think the problem is that there is another Chris Wright on Smashwords, and I get his book when I do an author search. Also a lot of books with the same name, and maybe if I clicked further in the pages yours would have shown up.

I did an author search on Amazon and your book did pop up. However, a book search gives 20 pages. I'm a little luckier in that my name is a little less common than yours, but I still get a few returns, including an old blues artist, when I search my name.
