Character interview - Charon Antares from "The Core of Rage"

"Dear readers, tonight with us is a rebellion leader, a shrewd warrior struggling for years to liberate his planet. He’s here to tell us about disastrous missions and conflicting loyalties in the quest to save his people."

 



This guy got his own character interview! Assaph Mehr, the author of The Protagonist Speaks, chose him to represent my debut grimdark sci-fi novel "Bloodstained Skies: The Core of Rage". I really spent much time on building and developing this character so I hope you will learn more about him.

Top free and paid book promotions sites - are they really that good? A huge review of sites to advertise your novel

I guess some people may relate to this scenario: you publish a book, then you sell absolutely nothing for the next few months, you get frustrated and you google: Best websites to promote your book And then you see huuuuge lists of book promo sites that tempt you with incredible promises. Since your budget is quite limited, you begin to wonder: Are these websites worth it?  And this is where I come with help. Here I compare the most popular book promo sites (I also added newsletter builders as a little bonus). Please note that all these promos were for 0.99$ book (except Best Book Monkey in the 5th category).   A few things about my books (to give you some background and context) my genre: adult dark military space opera, without romance. Maybe it's a bit niche but nothing too obscure. preferred audience: adult (25+), 60-70% men, English-speaking (I think B1 level is enough to understand my books). stats (book 1): Bloodstained Skies: The Core of Rage Reviews: 2-6, around 4.5 stars

Rock festivals are something different

Let’s take a break from writing for a moment. I don’t attend too many rock/metal shows and that’s a huuuge mistake.   I had a charity event in my city, where a few local bands played a concert. Of course I couldn’t miss it, since rock/metal shows in my city are a very rare thing. And you know what? My jaw dropped. It’s awesome to see how people are passionate about this music. A few guys in my dad’s age enter the scene and keep rocking as if they were 20-30 years younger. And when you feel bass vibrations in your whole body, you just can’t stand still. Maybe your ears and neck hurt the next day, but that’s just a minor inconvenience. However, it was the kids that stole the show. A group of 3-4 girls (around 5-7 years old) sneaks into the corner of the scene and just… dances. No shame, no fear, no insecurity, they just enjoy the show. I think adults could only learn from them…   There’s also a downside that made me worried a bit. Around 90% of the audience were middle-aged people and th

Why I gave up on social media as a writer

I wasn’t a big fan of social media since I decided to be a broadly defined artist around 2017 (writer, metal musician, digital painter, writer again). Whenever I googled “how to promote your [ insert your art type here ]“, the 1st tip I got was “ YOU MUST USE SOCIAL MEDIA!!! “ As a little, young and stupid kid, I followed this advice… and that didn’t end up too well. While I’m not trying to tell that all SM always suck for everyone, I would like to explain why I completely gave up on them. Before I start my flood of complaints, I will highlight a few positive things about using SM and a few of my mistakes: yes, you can find your new fans on SM (at least around 2021). I sold about 3 copies of my epic metal EP when I used Instagram (but I had to spend 2h per day on promotion and got around 500 real followers. Does it sound good?) it all is determined by your target audience. Some time ago I saw a post by some author who sold 5000 paperbacks through TikTok. Before you decide to use any sp
