As some of you may know, Blindspace didn't have the best launch, and its numbers aren't doing too well. The Kindle edition is on sale for $2.99 on Amazon. Would love it if any of you guys could help me out a little. 😁 amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B08NJL3Z2…

Debut at 49, after a 35 year deferral of my writing. Writing with my childhood writing partner @kenbebelle. We failed out of Chinese school together and now look at us 😁
I was mediocre at best in English classes growing up, didn’t read for fun until I was in my late twenties, & started writing at 34. I’m now 41 w/ an agent & a 3-book deal at a dream publisher. There’s no such thing as timelines or the right age. There’s only dreams & persistence.

A few great reviews of Combat Codes over the past year: @nytimes: "Violence with the rhythm and surprise of a well executed sonnet." @Polygon : "Evocative and visceral" @io9: "Intensely researched hand-to-hand combat" @LibraryJournal : "Perfect blend of fantasy, cyberpunk & MMA"
