Many New Options For Your Downloading Pleasure

I am proud to announce that there are now a number of sites offering A Calloused Compilation.
Smashwords.com is of course one of those sites that allows for download of the book in whichever format you choose in order to match your ereader correctly.  This is the best way to receive the book as many more books will be added and available on Smashwords long before any other sites.  Additionally, coupons are released periodically to make the affordable ebooks of James Christianson even easier to obtain.
The apple apps ibookstore and ibooks also carry the book making for simple purchase on your apple devices (reads wonderfully on the ipad2)
And the most recent addition......Barnes and Noble added A Calloused Compilation to their collection of Nook Books so grab your technology and visit one of these sites.

Keep looking out for the release of the book on Amazon.  But keep in mind that even if you own a kindle, the book can still be downloaded from Smashwords without the need to wait.

Thank you to all who support the dying pastime of reading.  ;)

A Calloused Compilation is now released!!!

After years of trying to "get around to it," I finally got off my ass and made it happen.  The graphic artist responded quickly and designed the cover according to my vision, and the formatter delivered on time with a perfectly quality product.  Now it is up to you guys to tell me what you think.  The price is set at $2.99 because I don't believe that cost should be a determining factor in art, it should be available for all to love.  Plus, at smashwords.com you can view the first 25% of the book for free before purchasing.  Personally, I think the latter half is my favorite but of course you will have to purchase the book to view that portion.  So join me in celebrating this moment.  I could only dream of this day when I was younger and now, thanks to technology, publishing is easier than ever!  When I was 16, my work was being published in print and put on professionally read CD's, but I thought having my own book would be impossible to achieve.  Thanks to everyone who heard my work and gave me the feedback necessary to fuel this project and the many more that will follow. 

Search for the book on smashwords.com and as they distribute the book to all the dealers that furnish the ereaders (amazon, sony, etc.) look for the book on their sites as well.  Thanks again, everyone and enjoy!!!

A Calloused Compilation Due Out Mid-December

So...after years of talking about it and falling victim to societies leeches; work, traffic, and any other excuse I can pass the blame off to, the compilation is finally being released.  As a preliminary work to the awaited novel, "Pyre" (scheduled for release in 2012), A Calloused Compilation will be priced at $2.99 to ensure to whet your appetite for additional analyses to come.  Life is a struggle, if you don't question your existence and the reasons why people do what they do, then you are wasting your time swimming through the system.  Release yourself to a life of pondering your surroundings, searching for enlightenment, and simply turning the depravity of the world into creations of tormented beauty.
