William Butler added a discussion to the group Promote Your Books!

I suppose one reason I'm so terrible at promoting my work is I have a bit of trouble with the concept of "tooting" my own horn. In the back of my mind it sounds just a bit too much like bragging... something I was raised to believe is very near to an unpardonable sin. In spite of that, I'm placing a trailer for my book, "I Remember Tomorrow".I hope you find it, at least, entertaining and at best that it might pique your interest.A Brief SynopsisBe well, WilliamSee More

A Heroine With A Twist

Nightrun Trailer: The Elder Helen

Nightrun Trailer: The Other Helen

These are two of the "Women of Nightrun" trailers for my upcoming Nightrun series. The elder Helen may actually be my favorite character in the series. She's bright and funny but can turn dark and dangerous in the blink of an eye. The other Helen, called "Two", while possesing many of the same traits as her name sake, tends to be angrier and more driven. Seperately, they are formidable. However, when they finally combine their talents... things heat up.
Be well,

A Short Story: "A Cold Morning"

Posted on September 17, 2008 at 12:30pm 1 Comment 0 Likes

This is a short story taken from the reality of the book series I am currently writing (the first draft of book one is completed). While the setting and circumstance place it in the science fiction genre, the purpose is to simply tell a story of two people and their connection.

Comments and criticism are welcome.

Be well,

William

I'm sure you meant to say '. . . span vast periods of time . . ." rather than 'spam vast periods of time' lol. You can accuse me of many things but spamming, I hope, will never be one of them.

At 7:54pm on March 18, 2011, Mike O'Hare said…: Many thanks for the link up, William. I’m looking at ways where we can help each other promote our material and ourselves. I suppose it begins with good communication. Did you have anything in mind in addition to this? I'm not that experienced in writing but I have a wealth of knowledge about people. This is the cover to my co-written book. You’d be welcome to post yours in my comments box. All you have to do is ask :-)
