All these ghost towns, wreathed in old loam (Assateague knee-deep in seafoam)
Good afternoon! The weather is unspeakable and so is the sleep, but I have news and it is good. For everyone who has been asking about e-books of Forget the Sleepless Shores—
If you read on a Kindle, Amazon has got you covered.
If you don't read on a Kindle, or don't do Amazon, or just prefer to purchase direct, Lethe Press is now offering the Eerie Waters Ebook Bundle, which I am delighted to be a part of. Along with my collection, you get Chaz Brenchley's Lambda Award-winning Bitter Waters (2014) and the Lethe anthology The Touch of the Sea (2012); the latter looks like a beauty, but the former is my single favorite other author's collection ever put out by this press, a superlative seventh wave of queer male sea-stories, sharp and breathtaking. It's an honor to be classed with. The whole situation makes me want to be by the sea right now.
As Steve Berman says on Facebook:
Discover why so many authors admire the work of Sonya Taaffe . . . these are short stories that navigate strange waters. Eerie ghosts, descendants of Deep Ones, dybbuks are waiting for you to hear their tales.
Come and hear us singing.

Thank you! I am obviously biased, but I would say it's worth it.

In celebration, we launch T. Witt from the bow of an opium clipper under full goddamn sail. My plan is good and you should accede to it.

I don't see why not. I don't see an expiration date.
Thank you!

I am interested in the bundle, but...it is less than your ebook alone on Amazon, for multiple books? I am concerned. Do you get less royalty if I get the bundle?
no subject
I very much appreciate you asking. I am afraid I don't have a good answer: the terms of my contract do not specify a difference in payment between different platforms of digital edition.
I will get some royalty no matter which one you choose, if that helps.

I went ahead and bought it on Amazon. My dim and hazy and generalized outsider's knowledge pieced together from scraps of comments from other authors, which may or may not be true or applicable here, indicates that when a book is on Deep Discount(tm) (it's like the Deep Magic, for summoning readers), royalties are calculated at a lower percent. I dunno what 'percentage' of the bundle your book's consuming but....eh. I don't need a discount this week, so.
I may not be able to read it for a while, I am both in the middle of Woman In White and staying up until four AM on weeknights because my brain has decided sleep is Lava, so switching gears is hard, but when I do, this way I can leave a verified purchaser review on Amazon!

Thank you very much!
I hope you enjoy it, whenever you get to it. And I also hope you sleep.

Plus its collective cover is a beautiful photograph of the shore, exactly the rocky kind I'd like to be on.
I should get round to "Bitter Waters".
I think you would really like it.

Awesome! Thank you.
I have a few plane trips in a fortnight (for a meeting which I am currently preparing for) and look forward to rewarding myself with your book once I get everything done!
I very much hope you enjoy it.
