The breakout novel that wasn’t

This is re-posted from the newsletter I sent out today.

Aloha,

This newsletter is about the publishing lifecycle—and a big ebook sale ( just 99¢! ) for a title some of you know well, and others may never have heard of. Let me explain�

“It’s the doom of our species that psychopaths always want to be in charge.”
Linda Nagata, The Red: First Light

“We think we can plan our lives," he muttered. "We think we can model reality. But chaos is an intrusive, inconsiderate bitch.”
Linda Nagata, The Bohr Maker
tags: chaos

“We hold each other and I’m shaking, because I’m thinking how close I came to losing her. If she’d been closer to ground zero in San Diego, she’d be dead now. So many people are dead, because for decades citizens like me and my dad, my uncle, and Lissa’s parents—good people—quietly financed war after war because it’s easier to pay our taxes than to risk our livelihoods by trying to change the system. Our silence let wealth accumulate in the hands of people like Thelma Sheridan, people who came to believe they could buy absolutely anything, even innocence.”
Linda Nagata, First Light
