I’d like like to take a quick intermission to help promote a friend’s new book, which has lots of bonus content, including a side story illustrated by ME! My friend Scott King is the writer of the holidays-gone-insane comic series “Holiday Wars”, which is a clever and griping tale of the battle between the Easter Bunny and the rest of the holiday characters we all know and love, to save what’s left of The Holiday Spirit. It’s really worth a read! And now, you can help Scott bring the book to life! If you’re like me, it’s far more preferable to sit in a comfy chair with a beautifully printed book, so how about a small donation to his Kickstarter campaign, to ensure he can afford to have these awesome books printed.
Not sold yet? Swing by his site and give the comic a read from the start… I guarantee you’ll be hooked!
Still iffy? OK, a video to persuade you…
STILL not sold? Okay, how about an interview of Scott himself, on the infamous Tall Tale Radio with Tom Racine!
Want More Info? Here’s Scott’s Press Release!
HOLIDAY WARS launches GIVEAWAY!
To celebrate the launch of “Holiday Wars” Book 2 we are doing a massive three week contest where we will be giving away some awesome daily prizes; including a Kindle, and a Nook Simple Touch.
“Our readers have stuck around for almost two years now and we thought this was a nice way we could give back to them,” Holiday Wars writer and creator Scott King said. “Sure we are doing traditional prizes like gift cards and ebook readers, but I’m particularly excited about giving away copies of Scrivener and Manga Studio since HOLIDAY WARS was partially created in both programs.”
A full schedule and list of prizes can be found HERE.
In addition to the giveaway contest, we are also launching a new website and a Kickstarter to fund the printing of Book 1 of “Holiday Wars.”
