I'M GOING TO BE A PUBLISHED AUTHOR!!!!!
With that out of the way, thank you everyone who is currently reading this for all the support!
I literally couldn’t have done this without you!
As to what this is, I’m fairly certain most of you have noticed that a lot of big stories have been moving to Amazon and I am proud to announce I am doing the same!
Sylver Seeker Book 1 is available for Pre-Order, and will be out on September 26th 2023!
And not only is there an extremely well-edited Ebook, but there is also an audiobook (link has been added!).
Book 1 will tell Ciege's story, to be more specific, it starts with his "death," and ends shortly after his "rebirth." It's a bit over 200k words, and the chapters it was made from are chapters 1 through 47.
Chapters 5 through 47 will be removed on the 10th of September (KU rules).
There are about a million things I want to say, about the published version, about the process, and how much work it was to polish it into a presentable state that I'm proud of, but if I do that then this would be a 10k word announcement, and from what I've seen its best to keep them short.
So if anyone has any questions feel free to ask below!
And one more time, thank you for all the support!

Crap. Now I have to pay one of my favorite authors for their amazing work. Guess my wallet will be crying soon. Anyways, congrats!
Congratulation. So happy for you and for Sylver!
HUZZA!
Congratulation!
While I'm pleased for you to get it in a form that can go to e-book format, I will admit to being disappointed for yet another KU "I have to take everything away that I've given" post. You _can_ post it on Kindle without removing it, you just can't use KU for that.
@Serkadion elaborate?
@felinoel - Kindle Unlimited has a deal where in order to be posted there - for a higher chunk of money - you have to make sure it's not available online elsewhere for 90 days (That's the time frame I was given by another author). (I've never seen an author return the stubbed out story after that 90 day limit, of course)
Kindle itself, being as a kindle e-book, has no such restriction. What they had, and likely still have, is a requirement that you can't have it elsewhere where it undersells Kindle. (Free is apparently fine, or behind a login wall).
To my mind, the best way to do it isn't to try to do KU, it's to offer the book up on Kindle, but do a value add. That is, explanatory content, and just extra chapters, maybe some additional editing. That way you're not being an indian giver, and still offering value. Many authors that stub ALSO run a Patreon - which means they want to be paid _twice_ for their work. (I'm not totally against this. It's rare that Patreon makes enough for them to not have to work outside of the writing.)
Hey nice!!! Congratz!
Congratulations
Wait, is that what the shades look like? I've been envisioning them as human-shaped mounds of shadow...
Congratulations ??
