SUPPORT AN INDEPENDENT (AUTHOR - THAT IS)

Hi Guys,

Some of you old timers might remember me from the olden days (also know as "days of yore" or even "Auld Lang Syne" - lets just say it was back before Serenity came out) when I used to frequent FFF. I am now a so-called "Indie author" looking for some support from my fellow Browncoats.

What I’m doing is this: I have the first 10 chapters of my near-future science fiction novel “Emergent Behavior” previewed on a site called Authonomy.com which is run by HarperCollins Publishing. Basically I am asking that anyone here interested in science fiction (and who isn’t) log onto the site and read some of my chapters. If you like the story, then you can vote for it by clicking the icon for "Back the Book" which places it on your virtual “bookshelf.” That’s it! Each month, the top five books with the most bookshelf “points” are reviewed by the editors at HarperCollins, with a chance for publication.

The book is already well-received, but there is so much competition, it is difficult to work your way up the ranks without the support of friends (which HarperCollins actually recommends). Since I can’t think of anyplace else with so many SF fans who might be looking for a new project to support, I came here, hoping for yours.

The link to the main site is:
http://www.authonomy.com

The direct link to my book is:
http://www.authonomy.com/ViewBook.aspx?bookid=3233

You actually do not have to log in to read my chapters, so please feel free to check it out. If you like it, please consider logging in and “backing” my book. While you are there, please look around at the many other books being previewed (over 3000 at this point). If you don’t like Emergent Behavior, you might find something else you like (you can bookshelf up to 5 books at a time).

Thanks,
Joseph Rhea (CupofJoe)
If you can't run, you crawl, and if you can't do that, well, you know the rest...
