This morning I dug out a closet full of winter linens to run them through the laundry before the weather turns cold, and discovered my Yamaha classical guitar in its case at the back of the closet. I asked Daron what happened to his. He said he sold it when he left music school and […]
I’m working on the third volume of the Daron’s Guitar Chronicles ebook series. Here’s a sneak preview of the cover! Volume 3 will encompass though chapter 201 and include Ziggy’s story, as well. Volume one is still free right now on Amazon.com and Smashwords, and volume two is on sale on those sites for $2.99. […]
Wow! I had no idea! I started listing the DGC vol 1 ebook free last month on Smashwords, just to draw more readers to the site, and the free price soon propagated to Amazon’s Kindle Store. I was amazed to find, though, that the ebook is #3 on the free ebook bestseller list in the […]
If you’ve gotten used to the rhythms of Daron’s narration, you’ve probably figured out by now that the slower he goes, the closer he is to a major breakthrough in his own head or major plot point. When each post is a different city, he’s in cruise control. When all of a sudden you get […]
Cecilia here, with a note on our next big thing. Crowdfunded fiction and crowdfunded art have a lot in common. (And webcomics are both, you might say!) I follow a fair number of webcomics & illustrated serials and I notice many of my favorite artists take commissions. What I thought would be fun is if […]
Cecilia here. OK, so, with the holidays and all, I didn’t want to put a time-consuming or wallet-straining task on you all to earn January bonus posts. So we’ll have three posts a week until February 3rd! In the past we’ve asked you to accrue points with dollars, with comments, with blog posts, and with […]
Cecilia here, but Daron’s coming by a little later. The tour has taken us a lot of places and brought up a lot of history I figure I should fill you guys in on. AOR. I use the term “AOR” (pronounced “ay-oh-arrr”) in a recent chapter. It stands for “Album Oriented Rock.” It’s kind of […]
[Thanks to everyone who donated, making this bonus story free for everyone to read!] Ziggy: This is My Story (And I’m Sticking to It) He has no idea. He really doesn’t. He’s so used to fading into the background that he has no clue how beautiful he is. Daron, I mean. He had no concept […]
Cecilia here today. Those of you following the DGC Twitter feed have already seen these images, but here they are for everyone to enjoy. I was searching through a stock photography site for a book cover for something else entirely, and stumbled across a photo that had Daron written all over it. And even more […]
A little update on “reader rewards” for Daron’s Guitar Chronicles. The campaign to trigger a whole month of bonus posts was awesome and thank you so much for participating to all who did. The next campaign is another one for 100 points, only this one is for comments. Only top level comments on story posts […]
