THE DIRTY FREEBIE

What’s up, Steeleheads? Welcome back for another edition of The Dirt. The main reason I’m even sending a newsletter out this week is to let you know about a sweet deal I’ve got going on this weekend. Starting today and running through Sunday, December 13, you can pick up a copy of my first novel, Slab Steele and the Venusian Exchange, for free on Kindle. I know a lot of you added to your libraries the last time I was able to do this, but grab it if you haven’t.

It’s a great chance to catch up on Slab’s story for free before the sequel, Slab Steele and the Outer Rim Job, comes out on December 31. And as always, you can add Audible narration for $7.49.

THE DIRTY LOGO CONTEST REDUX

Ronnie flared up last time, team. He forgot to make the link to his Instagram actually work. Quite a few of you even clicked on the stupid thing. That one’s on me. Mea culpa, bruhs. Mea culpa.

Again, rules are simple. If you haven’t already, follow my Instagram account sometime between now and December 21, find the Ariel Mermen post, and mention a friend in the comments. Do all of the above and you’re in. I’ll pick a winner at random.

CLICK THIS WORKING LINK TO FOLLOW 

I’ll send our Champ a one of a kind hat, t-shirt, or long sleeve featuring the logo above. Prize is somewhat negotiable, as long as it doesn’t break the bank. Even though I’m passionate about this book biz, it’s still more of a beer money hobby for me. 

If you want to support me and goofy storytelling endeavors, check out my website below for lots of other cool craterball gear in my store. See a logo you like, but want it on a color that isn’t there or would rather have it on some stellar donk hugging men’s leggings? Shoot me an email. I’d be more than happy to make your one of a kind piece happen.

HIGHLIGHT OF THE HALF-FORTNIGHT

Combat Origin: A Dystopian GameLit Adventure 

by Misty Zaugg

In her world, single combat decides everything.

It's her sixteenth birthday and Kiriai has a big decision to make. Will she fight for her dream to battle in the arena? Or buckle under her grandfather’s pressure to become a healer?

Her best friend Eigo is an outcast from his scrounger family. On a recent expedition into the wastelands, he found a peculiar birthday gift for Kiriai—an AI trainer from a centuries-old, martial arts game. Could it give her the advantage she needs? Will Kiriai win the fight that decides her future?

An impossible deadline, a persuasive mentor, and her own family all stand in Kiriai’s way. If she loses, she’ll be consigned to a mundane life, but more importantly, banned from the arena forever. Kiriai can't let that happen.

Combat Origin is the first book in the World of Combat, young adult, dystopia series. If you like strong heroines, gamelit and a good brawl, buy a copy today.

THE DIRTY DISCLAIMER

Before you bruhs scroll any further, I would like to disclose the fact that the set of books you’re gonna see below may not be in your wheelhouse. I am in no way saying that the books are bad, nor that the content is wrong in any way, shape or form. In fact, I find the covers to be very tasteful, and even appealing. And I’m sure the books are expertly written.

That being said, Ron may have flared up a little, here. I agreed to swap mentions with the author after a quick glance at the title, not necessary thinking about what kind of book it may be. If you haven’t figured it out yet, Slab Steele is inspired by some of the worst parts of myself. And, like Slab, the tendency to act without thinking is one my most loathsome personal flaws.

So here it is: I saw Biker in the title, knew for a fact that several of my subscribers were fond of motorized two-wheeled vehicles, and thought this would be something they would enjoy.  

So take a look, click the link if you’re interested, and well… that’s all I have to say about that.
