Amazon edition of That Which is Unexpected
So I'm finally getting around to fixing the formatting error for That Which is Unexpected with some help from my Kindle. I start going through and fixing the errors as I find them when I come across quite a few grammar mistakes. So, naturally I go back to fix this in the Word document, only to find that they aren't there. I ignore it the first two times, but a dozen times later I realize that something is up.
"So what was it?" you might be asking.
"Was it aliens?"
"Or a government conspiracy?"
"Or a software malfunction on Amazon's part?"
No, kind readers who believe that I am a completely infallible and perfect human being. I'm man enough to admit that this was of my own doing.
I, like an idiot, uploaded an older version of the file. Looking at my folder for the first book and its 47 different items, I can't be too hard on myself for accidentally picking the wrong file and should be thankful that I didn't accidentally choose one of the draft copies that are incomplete, although if I had, this mistake would have been noticed immediately from the preview...
So, I'd like to apologize to the now 800 people who have downloaded my book on Amazon alone (thanks by the way). When I upload the new file within the next two days, your Kindle devices should automatically update it if it's connected to the cloud...I think. For those of you that had to download it and transfer it via computer, sorry for the added inconvenience.
This is only applicable to people that are still reading the book, or actually care about grammar because the overall story hasn't changed. The differences between the two versions will only be punctuation, some reworded phrases, and the formatting error.
I will post again when I upload the second edition of That Which is Unexpected on Amazon.
Now for an update on book three: Beta readers are almost halfway done, collectively.
I'm still writing and book five is up to 25,000 words
