ceciliatan | Site news: reviews campaign and *that* scene

Mirrored from the latest entry in Daron's Guitar Chronicles.

In yesterday’s post, at the bottom, I mentioned I’d written a bonus scene that people have been asking for, and what one has to do to get it. Yes, the scene is written already (Daron wouldn’t leave me alone until I wrote it…) and so here are more details on how to get it ASAP:

Basically, fans of Daron’s Guitar Chronicles, you’ve been asking for a threesome scene between Daron, Ziggy, and Colin since all the way back in book four, I think? (When they were on tour in Florida?) Well, I finally picked Daron’s brain about what his fantasy threesome would be like, and wrote the scene! And it is hot, so hot. But it’s not your typical bonus scene.

So to get it, I’m not going to ask for the typical thing (donation) but instead for something else to help Daron’s Guitar Chronicles: Amazon reviews. Amazon reviews actually make a big difference in the sales of most books, and ours are, well, a little anemic. So:

Each person who posts an Amazon review for books 2 through 7 will get the bonus scene. To get it, email me at ctan.writer @ gmail.com with your review (cut and paste, link, whatever) and your age statement that you are 18 or older, and I will email you back the scene as soon as I read your email. Easy!

Details:

I know some of you don’t use Amazon, and some need not to review for privacy reasons, though. So this is a collective effort. If we can get each book from volumes 2 through 7 up to 20 reviews total by October 1st, I’ll release the scene for the entire fandom to read! (Well, behind an age-statement wall, but you know what I mean.) So even if you can’t review, urge others to and we’ll all get there together, OK?

Here are links to the Amazon pages directly and which chapters correspond to each volume, so if you’ve read them here on the DGC site, you can write a review even if you didn’t buy the ebook from Amazon:

Vol 2: (40 through 127) http://amzn.com/B0056QJLI0 (now has 21! so it’s done!)
Vol 3: (128 through 205) http://amzn.com/B005HVXTRI (has 5 7 8 10 13 14, needs 15 13 12 10 7 6 more)
Vol 4: (206 through 318) http://amzn.com/B00AECESNO (has 5 7 8 9, needs 15 13 12 11 more)
Vol 5: (319 through 388) http://amzn.com/B00FO39C1Q (has 5 6 7 9, needs 15 14 13 11 more)
Vol 6: (389 through 504) http://amzn.com/B00OZEOQAW (has 4 6 7 10, needs 16 14 13 10 more)
Vol 7 (505 through 584): http://amzn.com/B00ZN34BEK (has 2 3 5 8 10 15, needs 18 17 15 12 10 5 more)

That’s it. I think I made the goal do-able!

If by some chance we blow past 20 reviews for each book, maybe I’ll let you guys vote on another fantasy scene as a stretch goal? Think about who you’d want–or who you’d want to put Daron with. (RPF?) I definitely enjoy writing these scenes…!

P.S. First review’s already in and the bonus scene is off to the first reviewer! Thank you!

P.P.S. If you reviewed the books already, thank you very much! Email me your age statement for the scene!

P.P.P.S. A couple of people have asked me what to write in the review. I think a review doesn’t have to be a big essay. The most important thing is just to tell people what you liked about the book! That’s the most helpful thing for the next reader trying to decide whether to buy or not.
