In this week's episode, I recall reading THE SILMARILLION for the first time as a teenager, and discuss how it later influenced MAGIC THE GATHERING. TRANSCRIPT 00:00:00 Welcome and Writing Updates Hello everyone. Welcome to Episode 164 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is August the 13th, 2023 and today we're going to discuss The Silmarillion and how it connects to Magic the Gathering and we'll also answer some reader questions and have an update on my current writing projects. First up, let's have an update on my current writing projects. I'm pleased to report that Dragonskull: Crown of the Gods, the final book in the Dragonskull series is now out. You can get it at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, Google Play, Apple Books, Smashwords, Scribd, and Payhip on my own store. It came out officially yesterday actually, and it's been selling very well very briskly. So, thank you all for that. It is also the 9th and final book in the Dragonskull series, so those of you who refuse to read the series until it's complete, you can now buy all nine Dragonskull books immediately and enjoy them. I also released a bonus short story called The Final Shield that is a preview of the next Epic Fantasy series I will write in Andomhaim in the year 2024. So if you want a preview of that series, you can check out The Final Shield. My newsletter subscribers will have gotten that story for free and I'll be doing a follow up e-mail in a week or so. So, if you sign up for the newsletter right now, you will get a free ebook copy of The Final Shield next week. Now that Dragonskull is finished as part of my Summer of Finishing Things, the next thing I will write will be Silent Order: Pulse Hand, the 14th and final book in the Silent Order science fiction series. I'm going to start that tomorrow as a matter of fact and hopefully have it out towards the end of September. 00:01:49 Reader Questions and Comments So, let's have some questions and comments from readers. Our first question is from James, who asks: I do have a question. I understand it's very expensive to create an Audible book. Are there any plans to make an Audible version for the last set of the Ghost Night Book series? At the moment, no. The Ghosts is completely in audiobook. Ghost Exile is completely in audiobook, and when I start writing a new Caina series after Silent Order: Pulse Hand, I'm going to start doing that one in audiobook right away. But at the moment, I don't have any plans to do a Ghost Night audiobook series. Things may change later, but for now I don't. Our next question is from Andy, who asks: For Dragonskull: Doom of the Sorceress, you seem to do a soft open, e.g. publish the table of contents on Wednesday and then late Friday I was able to download the book on iBooks. I'm hoping the same for The Crown of the Gods. Well, this is what I do when I publish a book: The first day I will publish it everywhere on all the platforms: Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, Google Play, Apple Books, Smashwords, Payhip, and then through Smashwords, should get on Scribd eventually, and then I leave alone the rest of that day. So the day after then I will start an Amazon auto target ad to start getting word out. The day after that I will post links. So the second day after I publish I will post links for the book on Facebook and other social media and then the day after that, ideally the third day after publishing, is when I will send out the newsletter letting everyone know that it's been read, so that way, usually by then, by the third day, it's finished processing on all the platforms and I can then send out a newsletter out letting every reader I have on every platform know that it's available on their platform of choice. So that's usually what I do. For the table of contents, I post that when I get to a certain phase of editing, and at that point I'm almost done with the book. So once I have posted the table of contents, it's not too much longer until the book will be done and I will be ready to publish. Our next question is from William, who asks similar questions: I've been listening to some of your works through Audible. I started listening to Frostborn: The Gray Knight. It seems like I'm missing some of the story. Your website says Frostborn: The First Quest is the first book, but I can't seem to find it on Audible. Is it in a bundle that I'm not aware of, similar to The Ghosts: Omnibus One? What books or series should I read before that one, Frostborn or is Frostborn its own universe? Thanks for listening, William. I'm glad you enjoyed the books. To answer your questions, Frostborn is its own universe, completely distinct from The Ghosts. Frostborn: The First Quest is a prequel novel I wrote before the main series of Frostborn, and we've never done that one in audio because it is not part of the main story and you don't actually need to read Frostborn: The First Quest to understand what's going on in the main story. So that's sort of a ...
