Guide to 'Rage' 2 - Population Project Centre

Second part...the Population Project Centre...very similar to Aldous Huxley's 'Brave New World', really. Two Directors, Dreus and Creus, twins from the same tube, are in charge of keeping control of the population growth, and in which way it should continue in the future. Plagamus tries every year to enter the 'Project', but his DNA 'score' is the lowest on record. Dreus and Creus come from a long line of Directors/Scientists who know the ultimate truth - that there is a power higher than humanity, living in a place different to physical reality. These Directors have the responsibility of keeping the population's DNA 'good' for the vehicles used by the souls for the experience of physical reality. They also know that dolpin DNA was mixed with 'monkey' DNA millions of years ago to keep the intelligence within the human race, as it was almost bred out by those monkeys who thought beauty, selfishness, strength and being No.1 were the only things needed to live. I could go on...they 'grow' humans in the Population Project Centre according to instructions from 'above'.

Guide to 'Rage' 1 - the Auditor

Think I'll start a guide to 'Rage'. I've started reading it again and it's FULL of interesting ideas, NEW concepts and strange characters.
The Auditor - before the time of Graham the Grim Reaper, there was a more simple system in place, where Gabriel the angel took souls, and Satan's little hobgoblins took what he didn't. The Auditor was a 'book-keeper' for the Overlords, to check on profit levels. The Auditor was also available to both 'sides' to check on progress. Satan took him in, befriended him, and so the Auditor helped Satan do as he wished. Sadly, all things must come to an end, and so...well, Graham takes over some million or so years later, when the system gets back on its feet.

'Rage of Atlantis' price down!!!

Yes, I did it, I put the price down for ya! Give it a few days to work through. Any takers?
'The Rage of Atlantis' - probably the funniest and deeply disturbed book you'll ever read!

$7.99 - my own createspace website (I get more royalty here)

$7.99 - Amazon.com

£7.50 - Amazon.co.uk (special offer ATM £7.19)


8.00 - Amazon Europe (this link is to Germany)

 

Price going down...

Yes, I'll put the price down on my 3rd book soon. Though because it's almost 300 pages, the price can't go down too far. I can give discount codes if people buy it through my createspace websites, but because of Amazon, the price stays a little high.
Still getting good reviews / comments on this 3rd books. And waiting for any competition news...could be waiting forever....
Had a fantastic idea for another short novelette, a 'rescue mission' type thing. Will work on it...probably publish a few together.

And another great comment for 'Rage'

They keep coming...this one from someone in authonomy.com who's already met my writing in 'Bethlehem Fiasco'.

I came in to this read with certain expectations - and I was not disappointed. Despite the fact that poor Telausis meets a sticky end, speared and blown to bits, your quirky storyline immediately captivates the attention, and the sardonic humour absolutely shines, just as in The Bethlehem Fiasco. It is done with such a light but deft touch, so that the prose just races along and carries us with it, without the humour ever feeling forced.
For example, from the use of Ivor Tickonme and Arthur Greenwire just after we are told of the bomb, to ‘shuffling in fluffy slippers’ - you take us from the sublime to the ridiculous quite effortlessly, and it’s just lovely. And then we get to meet god, his assistant and his morning coffee in chp 2 - just as I’d hoped and expected. There was no way that I was not going to read on to chp 3, and again, I’m glad I did, because now I can’t wait to find out how Sipho and Kang Dee are going to deal with the threat from the unseen enemy.
Your writing is accomplished, fresh, and highly entertaining.

Interview still online...!

Yes, it's still there.
http://sargakonyv.wordpress.com/2012/05/19/interview-with-dani-j-caile/
If only I could answer those questions again...or have another interview....or get a review in a well-known magazine or something! I have Amazon reviews, Goodreads reviews, and tons of authonomy and YouWriteOn comments, but still waiting for the big time to happen....

It's amazing...

It's amazing where this blog gets hits. I thought Brazil was a good one, but this week Vietnam popped up again, then Moldova (where?), and Morrocco, Venezuela, and even Belgium (if I dare mention the rudest word in the universe). Actually, I read that Adams used that word in the American edition of HHGTHG because the publisher didn't like the original word in the English edition, which was of course the 'f' word.
So I have no idea how people find this blog, but it's nice they do :-)
Ideas on new short stories based on the 'loose end' hobgoblins in the 1st two books. Entering another competition...
