WHERE HAS TABOO 1 GONE? WHY IS IT GONE?!

Because I've done "final" (ish) edits to it and am now exercising my right to sell it wherever the hell I damn well please.

Now that you've calmed down a little, Dear Reader, perhaps I can get you some tea?  Okay.  Okay, obviously we DO need to talk a little though.

Some of you, ESPECIALLY those closest to me, know of my efforts in the past year at several projects.  This one is just one of those, the writing and eventually serialization and sale-ification (yes, it's a word.  I just made it up.  Right now.  It's a word if I made it up, I'm a freakin' artist apparently) of The Generalist series you've grown to love and cuddle up to.

So yeap, it's that time.  After re-editing a FINAL final time, re-packaging and improving on the manuscript, I've finally got it up and ready to sell on Kindle (though do give me OOOOOONE last revision, since I'm preparing it for Smashwords as well and I want to use that format for Kindle), but there's a few issues going down.

For one, there's that Smashwords format of programming/writing I want to bring to Kindle.

Secondly, it's currently stuck at $2.99 though I lowered the price to $1.50, and when it comes time to pop Taboo 2 up for sale, I'll raise the price of Taboo 1 and sell Taboo 2 at $1.50, same with all other Taboos from now on.

Whenever an episode goes up for sale, they gotta come down here and you get this message with a link to buy and sample.

I'll still continue to post the unedited/lightly edited/raw manuscripts up here, and then later on give them the same treatment.  This way you can sample what it's going to be before you buy, a system I believe in highly.  BUT, I AM trusting you guys, y'knowwhatImean?

This is the honor system: you can accept the crappy-edited version of these stories and not pay, or pay what amounts to less than a cup of coffee (in some places) and receive a polished version full of proper grammar, little writing tidbits, and slightly more content.  I'm willing to believe in youse guys, and those who can't afford squat but are perfectly happy to retweet my tweets and repost my posts at Faecbawks.

Of course this might change depending on customer performance...we'll see.

In the meantime, that's what's up and I'm stickin' to it!

Secondly, it's currently stuck at $2.99 though I lowered the price to $1.50, and when it comes time to pop Taboo 1 up for sale, I'll raise the price of Taboo 0 and sell Taboo 1 at $1.50, same with all other Taboos from now on.

Whenever an episode goes up for sale, they gotta come down here and you get this message with a link to buy and sample.

I'll still continue to post the unedited/lightly edited/raw manuscripts up here, and then later on give them the same treatment.  This way you can sample what it's going to be before you buy, a system I believe in highly.  BUT, I AM trusting you guys, y'knowwhatImean?

This is the honor system: you can accept the crappy-edited version of these stories and not pay, or pay what amounts to less than a cup of coffee (in some places) and receive a polished version full of proper grammar, little writing tidbits, and slightly more content.  I'm willing to believe in youse guys, and those who can't afford squat but are perfectly happy to retweet my tweets and repost my posts at Faecbawks.

Of course this might change depending on customer performance...we'll see.

In the meantime, that's what's up and I'm stickin' to it!

So, you want to check out my Amazong link and stuff?  I gotta point out that it's not up for sale yet inexactly...but who am I to stop you from buying a slightly older, less edited version for $2.99?

Buy The Generalist - Taboo 0: Cliché of Memories here:

The jacket cover was done by myself (my hand, dontcha know~!) and the ever-lovin' Jade herself over at jadedshots.blogspot.com, and we're pretty much gonna do ALL the covers like that.  Gloved hands, brass knuckles, coffee mugs, and the Hooligan mean-face logo.

tl;dr - LOL I'M SELLIN' OUT, SO THIS PART HAS BEEN COMPILED AND RECODIFIED WITH THE REST FOR MASS CONSUMPTION!  SOCCER MOMS ARE GOING TO SCHLICK OVER MY STUFF NOW, KTHXBAI! #TheNewTwilight #Platitudes #Hashtag

WHERE HAS TABOO - WHATEVER GONE? WHY IS IT GONE?!



Because I've done "final" (ish) edits to it and am now exercising my right to sell it wherever the hell I damn well please.

Now that you've calmed down a little, Dear Reader, perhaps I can get you some tea?  Okay.  Okay, obviously we DO need to talk a little though.

Some of you, ESPECIALLY those closest to me, know of my efforts in the past year at several projects.  This one is just one of those, the writing and eventually serialization and sale-ification (yes, it's a word.  I just made it up.  Right now.  It's a word if I made it up, I'm a freakin' artist apparently) of The Generalist series you've grown to love and cuddle up to.

WARNING: THE BIGGEST POST I'VE EVER MADE COMIN' ATCHA!

Yeap.  All five parts of The Generalist's first, uh...story?...thing.  Taboo 0: Cliché of Memories, which is NOT Taboo 1: Where's The Beef?

Because I do nothing simple, what was supposed to be a 9-page short story apparently turned into a 31-page thing.  1 week, 31 pages as edited as I ever can make 'em, all spell-checked and what-not.

Hey, if'n ya wanna edit and yerself and hook it up, feel free - all I ask is that you lemme see it first before we both post it, y'know?

31 pages, jesus freakin'...suffice it to say, THIS is why I haven't done anything else lately.  What's even worse, I have projects backin' up (The Hooligans, Project: Boyfriend, the blogs, etcetera) but my muse is already whuppin' my ass to get Taboo 1 started.

And yeah.  Beef.  BEEF.  BEEEEEF.

So anyway, time to show what's up.  I haven't written like this in, geez...years.  I'm even probably sure to piss off a person or two, but I'm fairly certain y'all will find it entertaining.

I entreat you to be as brutally honest as possible about it - does it suck?  Does it remind you of stuff?  Do you wanna claim that my homages and shoutouts aren't either homage or shoutouts but rather blatant rip-off?  Speak on it in the comment section.

But do read it, and lemme know what you think.

Sincerely,

~That Bastard

P.S. - Head over to youtube.com/thedamnhooligans and subscribe.  We'll be able to post up our one-hour podcasts as soon as we get enough subscribers (uh, what...15-30?  Somethin' like that) and Youtube let's us, but in the meantime head over to http://kaospartyradio.blogspot.com and check 'em out. :D  Vidyuh games, angry dudes screamin' loud...what's not to love?

EDIT: Apparently at font size 12, it's 39 pages.  Sorry.  I lied.  LOL.

I wonder how many of you forgot I write with the pen name of J or JDW...

OPEN FOR BUSINESS KIDS!!!!



COME ONE COME ALL, GIT YA ASS UP AND C'MON EEEN~! So, sososososo, welcome to my world, my slice of the Inter-goddamn-nuggets, my piece of the global pie.

Welcome to The Pen Is My Sword, my literary blog and the best way to keep up with ALL EIGHT FUCKING BLOGS I WRITE FOR.

Who runs this shit?

I RUN THIS SHIT, DAWG!!! I DO!!!!!!

So, you'll notice the slick, sleek interface with the chunky edits and writing, yah? Well here's a quick walkthrough over the new interface:

>DIDJA NOTICE THE BIG BAR OVER THE MAIN PART OF THE BLOG? FROM THERE YOU CAN CHECK OUT ALL THE ABSOLUTE MOST PERTINENT STUFF I'VE GOT GOIN'! ALL EIGHT BLOGS. EXTREME EXISTENCE: BATTLEWORLD. MY SOUND BYTES AND SUCH.

>At the extreme right and at the top of the screen, you'll notice two things you fuck around with to customize the font size of the blog as well as operate the sliding sidebar.

YEAH NIGGA. SLIDING SIDEBAR. SWAG.

>What is ON that sidebar? A general write-up, my chatongo thing (LEAVE A MESSAGE, SHOW YA LOVE), advertisements, pertinent information and links and such. But the big feature I wanna point out to ya is the next point...

>An update feature. Yes. THIS, www.thepenismysword.com, IS my overblog as well as litblog. What I'd like to see is that THIS be made the one that you mainly bookmark and fave, then from here you can go to any of my other blogs, projects, or whatever have you. SO, in order to help facilitate that you can easily glance over there and see what's currently updated (complete with date and such). That way you won't have to spend time going to each and every blog and look around - now you can just glance at that block and BOOM, know exactly where yer goin'!

I sincerely hope I can continue to improve and tweak all my blogs and, ultimately, continue to entertain all y'all. Things are going to be very, VERY busy and I genuinely hope that you, my omnipresent audience, will continue to find me worth of your time, attention, and perhaps affections.

SO. The Pen Is My Sword is now opened for bidness. All my chats are pretty much up and running.

Time to get back to work on Battleworld now.

Sincerely and with a little love,

~ThatBastard
