Synopsis from Amazon:

Kill or be killed just got real in this game.

It's launch day of a game that'll entertain cosplayers and doomsday preppers. Kelly, Jack, and Reis enter simulation pods to survive a virtual apocalypse, yet instead of "game over" they enter a new game. Then another. Each new day brings a new battle. Surviving the games is easy, it's "kill or be killed". But fatigue and cyber sickness are setting in and the pods are designed for three days. With no communication to or from the operators, they can only hope they're rescued before it's too late.

'Why You Should Nominate my Novel For Publication'
by D. L. Richardson

Hello! My sci-fi novel Welcome to the Apocalypse has been approved for a 30-day campaign with Kindle Scout, an imprint of Amazon. I'm hoping you can help me WIN nominations.

How the campaign works is similar to 'So You Think You Can Dance' or 'American Idol' or 'X-Factor'. Readers get to vote on a book in the program. Votes count towards publication. Yes, we writers have finally got ourselves a 'So You Think You Can Write' competition. Can you imagine what that would look like on TV? A whole bunch of people sitting at computers.

Anyway, why should you vote? If the book is published through Kindle Scout, every reader who nominated gets a free ebook of Welcome to the Apocalypse, an advanced copy prior to publication. They get to say they helped get a book published. Plus, you can enter the Giveaway to win $50 cash prize.

Whether I get this book published or not, I thank you for all your help.

VOTE NOW AND WIN CASH!
Campaign starts September 28th and ends October 28th!

Readers can win cash simply by voting. Bonus points for sharing your nomination.


May you read well and often
