Lost Atlantis 5-- now out on Kindle! FREE copies to be given away in September... (news)

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CGKSK4B3

Free to download for the Amazon Kindle between 9/15/23 - 9/19/23.


I decided to release what I've written for the fifth and final Lost Atlantis book: Saga. I wouldn't recommend reading it without having read the other books in the series. It ties together loose ends from the overall series. 

It's a very short book, like the fourth one. It's only 27,600 words. 

To be honest, releasing this book feels very sad for me. I spent so many years of my life dreaming and fantasizing about these characters, and this imaginary world is now pinned down to a final set of black and white words. 

I have been working on a comedic "alternative universe." I never knew if I wanted this to be a comedy or a drama. But this mostly-serious, dramatic version is done now.  

I can't decide if this particular book feels incomplete because there was more I wanted to say and I just never found the words, or if I just don't want it to be over and it is. I'm guessing the latter. 

I guess I wanted to say more about trauma recovery, but... this is a fictional story. It's meant to move quickly along a narrative arc. It's not a series of creative non-fiction essays, which would probably be a better format for that topic.

But if you'd like to find out what happens at the very end of the series, this eBook is going to be FREE to download between September 15th and 19th. Just go to this link anytime before midnight (Pacific Time Zone) on those dates, and the regular $2.99 fee will be waived: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CGKSK4B3.

Just to let you know, you don't need a Kindle to read Kindle books! I no longer have a Kindle device. I have the free Kindle app on my phone, computer, and tablet. And the pages synchronize between devices.
