Finally, I can comment again! Some people got comment capability back early, but now it should be working for everyone! Hooray!
And with that small interruption, the news continues! To celebrate our fifth anniversary of House of Blades, we're now giving away some free wallpapers! We've got them for your computer or your phone, and technically they're also available for sale as posters if you literally want them to paper your wall at home. Or you can just take the thing that's free. Enjoy! (By the way, Ghostwater is ready for upload, and I'll be sending it to Amazon tomorrow night. When tomorrow night? That depends...) -Will

Super excited for tomorrow night then. :D I have a friend that bought foundation awhile ago, and I finally got him to pick it back up last night, so hopefully he will read the full series. Those wall papers are cool btw.

I keep checking for Ghostwater early, every hour or so. Ha, there may be some history of that pattern. Fingers crossed froa repeat.

I am expecting masterful timing on your part Will. I want you to predict exactly how long it will take Amazon to process Ghostwater so that it comes up at exactly midnight.

Wait, so if I go on Japan's Amazon could I potentially buy the book a day early?

Does the man behind the curtain know exactly when it will be uploaded, and could that man be bribed to reveal that information?

Is there a general timetable for uploading? Are we talking "stay up hitting refresh" tomorrow night? Or "wake up hella early and read 5 chapters before the kids wake up" kind of time?

Right. If you insist on posting it tomorrow, then I demand that you travel to the international date line in the pacific, right on the western side of it! Then it will be tomorrow very soon indeed!

4K(3840x2160) would be nice for wallpaper options :) It's quite common nowadays.

Tomorrow is so arbitrary... Say you wrote this yesterday, is it live now? is it night? does it need to be dark to be night? What if you live in the arctic circle? will we never see it?

I've reread all the books, all the worldbuilding blog posts, I've got a slot waiting in my kindle Unlimited library, and I've got the day off on the 1st (happy coincidence). Come at me Ghostwater I'm ready for you.

Exactly. Plus the wildlife may kill you. Should be some great inspiration for new sacred beasts or elderspawn.

Come on Will. You set the bar last time by releasing it the day prior to what you had planned. How can you lower the bar? You keep raising the bar on writing, so you should do the same on releasing. This time it should have been a surprise 2 day early release.

Love the wall papers. Especially the House of Blades one, which seems to open towards the Lathari Forest (did I spell that wrong?). The Crimson vault one seems to be opened to the palace of Cana, or some random red door because I recall the crimson vaults door had the Old Man's face on it.

The suspense is killing me, I'm reading on the shoulders of titans and stopping every 10 minutes to make sure I haven't missed you releasing it. I know you said evening but I'm hoping it might show up early, no matter how unlikely the chance.

I believe it's in Will's best interest to start sales at the beginning of the month. If he released the book early all of the sales/reads ( for KU) that happened in May would only count for May and impact his standing with amazon's marketing algorithm.Since June would be that much lower.
Reply
That's right
5/31/2018 04:41:40 pm
Yes, that's right. Lots of people are going to buy it the minute it comes out. It's in Will's best interest to publish June first, even if that means it's a few hours late.

Congrats, Will! Long time fan, I keep trying to get everyone I know hooked on your books as much as I am. Links to free books are definitely going to be helpful in my efforts. And I am so ready for Ghostwater. I'll need the next book tomorrow though since it won't last long.

Also purchased. I suspect the lack of comments is due to everyone devouring the book. I'm choosing to force myself to savor this one. So I just started re-reading the series yesterday. So it'll be next week sometime before I get to 'Ghostwater'. Looking forward to it. Congrats on 5 years going strong!
