Terror at Foothill Mall: Excerpt from Trodden Under, Volume Two of Jeff Head's Dragon's Fury Series

Dragon's Fury Series Web Site ^ | March 11, 2002 | Jeff Head

A bit long for an excerpt, but I wanted to get the entire scene in at the fictional Foothill Mall.

Have finished Chapters One and Two of Volume Two, Trodden Under, they are currently being reviewed/edited and I am starting Chapter Three this week. This makes me about 20-25% complete with Volume Two which I plan to get published by the end of May.

Volume One, Breath of Fire, continues to be sold and marketed in the hopes some large publication house will pick it up.

Dragon's Fury - Breath of Fire
A Story of the coming Third World War

As always, I look forward to FR comments and discussion. Thanks Jim for letting me keep people up to date.

Is the weather up there keeping you inside these days?

[patton]

Hey Jeff - I got busy last fall, and forgot to order your book. How do I get a signed copy?

[Jeff Head]

Ha! Ever heard of a portable, notebook computer _Jim?

They work in the darndest of places.

Here's the kind of things I do in the "weather" up here ....

So the answer is - you can work inside from any number of locations ...

[CFW]

Barnes & Noble says "sold out".

It's ranked 50,000 something on Amazon.com. Looks like you are doing pretty good. I'll order a copy next week.

[Jeff Head]

Go to the order page ... HERE

Order one and make the "signature" request in the instructions box. Also, be sure and put "Freerepublic" in that box so a donation will be made to FreeRepublic from your order.

I'll be happy to accomodate the signature, though for the life of me I don't know why anyone would want to mess up a perfectly good book with my John Hancock. LOL!

[Jeff Head]

That's your interpretation of the answer.

Actually, the answer to your question is a simple, no.

The reason is that I can work from any number of locations ... inside or out ... and do.

Bump and thanks

[Jeff Head]

Well, I have no idea what it takes to move up in ranking at Amazon. I know it needs to sell, but how many sales it takes to move from 1.3 Million to 50,000 is anyone's guess. Maybe there's a whole bunch that neve sell any!

When it get up into the hundreds ... I'll figure it's cranking.

Anyhow, I look forward to your order and hearing what you think. Hope it's an enjoyable and thought provoking read for you.

[patton]

Your order form is broken - it keeps saying "US State not accepted for non-US country." I had selected VA, United States. How come you don't take visa?

[Jeff Head]

Thank you!

And BUMP back.

[_Jim]

That's your interpretation of the answer.

... my point being - you need to get out of the 'bunker' more. This piece reads more like a nighmare than a 'novel' - perhaps that's your intent, a kind of militant Stephen King piece.

BTW - your 'radio traffic' looks VERY Hollywood-ish ...

[Jeff Head]

Not big enough to take VISA I guess.

You can use a credit card at Amazon, but then I can't sign it (no big loss there) and FR doesn't get a donation.

If the Form is not working, there must be some incompatibility with the browser. It works fine on mine, but I am IE on Windows ME. I'm just going to take out all of the "erorr checking" java code in that form and use the old Mark-4 Eyeball when I get the notification.

If you want to order through me, just send an email to me using this link with the info (full address, qty, instructions, etc.), including the "FreeRepublic" and request, and we can go that way. That's all the form does anyway is send me an email notification that a check is coming to the address on the order form. Then just mail in the check to that address on the order form.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Jeff, do you have a preference for how copies of your book are ordered? Would you prefer orders from your location, or is amazon.com a preferred venue? Do you know if Borders carries it?
