Penalty of Pride

Ole Rusty · 03-11-2012, 11:04 AM

Just published my first novel, Penalty of Pride, and need some help getting it going. The deal I made with my wife was that I will be getting a 12 Z MB Vert as soon as my 1,000th book is sold. I'll post pics and numbers sold, if some of you will help me out. If you buy it, post and I'll post totals. Thanks!

It's a great book, so the money will be well spent

I recommend the Kindle version, but not everybody has one.

Here's the links:

The powder keg of war lights when the brutal legacy of Kim Jong-il is passed to his youngest son. As the Young General struggles to cope with his inheritance of fear, famine, disease, and death, there are powerful forces lurking in the shadows, ready to usurp control of the failing nation. When the dead dictator’s eldest son realizes his brother has lost control of their nation, he calls James Faulkirk to help him end his family’s vile nepocracy. James, an ex-CIA analyst haunted by the pain of his own losses, climbs out of his soju bottles as the countdown to war nears zero. But can the unlikely duo warn the world and rescue the Korean peninsula before it sinks into the putrid hole which has already rotted its very bedrock? PENALTY OF PRIDE: DISPERSIVE GROUND is the novel which chronicles the violence, deceit, and death of a war that will destroy two nations.

As of this morning, I'm up to 112 sold through Amazon. Over 11 percent of the way there already. Help me get to 1,000 before the heat goes out of Tennessee and I can't drive the top down!

hello, I am very interested in getting published in the education field, any advice? i would like to to method books and music transcriptions. Thanks!

Ole Rusty · 03-11-2012, 01:24 PM

Thechidz,
My first piece of advice would be to immediately sign your beautiful Z over to me

Seriously, though, I'd be more than happy to answer any questions that I can. If you PM me with any questions or contact info, we can chat. I'm a fiction guy, so non-fiction isn't my field, but my aunt has published several music education non-fiction books that are very interesting.

I just bought it for my kindle. I'm reading something else right now, but I'll tell you what I think in a week or two.

Ole Rusty · 03-11-2012, 10:48 PM

Mike, you just made my evening! Hope you enjoy!

Love your stable, btw. I'm just taking a guess to say that you like your cars black...

Ole Rusty · 03-11-2012, 10:50 PM

For anybody interested, I just set up a fan page on Facebook. It's under 'mj hangge'. Love to see some 370z.com folks in there.

Ole Rusty · 03-14-2012, 12:50 AM

Over 220 that I've personally pushed sales to now. 22% of the way there! Help me out folks. Buy the Kindle version, it's a better deal!

Ole Rusty · 03-16-2012, 08:03 PM

Over 600 now. Help me out, get me over the grand so I can get my Z. PleaZZZ

Ole Rusty · 03-18-2012, 10:52 PM

Over 1,000 and going shopping! Help me out people, I promised my wife I wouldn't do my first modification until I went over 5,000...

Mike · 03-19-2012, 10:28 AM

It was a great read, but I really need the sequel now! When can I expect it???????

Ole Rusty · 03-20-2012, 07:38 PM

Mike, thanks! I can't tell you how much I appreciate hearing that you enjoyed the book. I'm working on the sequel right now and am about to publish a different novel within the next few weeks.

I'll make you a deal, if you review it on Amazon, I'll send you a copy of my next book 'Shreds of Humanity'.
