I am experimenting with the over-used sales gimmick, buy one get one free. So I’ve posted the following ad at a couple of science fiction and fantasy forums.
The book and ebook, which messes with time and has been described as Stephen King meets Mr Bean now comes with a free e-book of Escape Velocity magazine.
It’s all happening at DDP so click on over there to the Exit, Pursued by a Bee page at
Most of my shopping travelling is done by bike so it is annoying to have to lug away two large bottles of single malt when one for half-price is fine. However, it is a bit different when we can offer a free copy of an excellent science fiction magazine, Escape Velocity issue #2 and a copy of Exit all for the price of a double-whisky.
Work is also going on to create a video trailer for Exit. Kim McDougall in Pennsylvania is putting it together as we speak. Ideally, I’d like to have a few seconds of the Kaiser Chiefs playing Oh My God during the video. The lyrics
‘Cos all I wanted to be
Is a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar
Oh my god I can’t believe it
I’ve never been this far away from home’
Are perfect for Exit. Sadly, they are unlikely to give permission without costing the entire fortune of ebooks throughout Humanity. Nevertheless, my journalist friend, Les Floyd, in Carlisle is trying to contact them. Watch this space, listen to my space – erm, maybe.
From what we have read so far, that symphony (ageing prevents memory coming up with the name of this well-known piece) with lots of booms and crashes would be appropriate. Rocks rolling down hills. Lots of drama and action! Exciting stuff.
