These authors have got a first-ever publishing promotion to talk about, as well as writing in the Fantasy genre, their love of history, and a lot more.

In this terrific chat, Tee and Pip discuss their new promotion called “Double Trouble,” and how you can help them make an impact at Amazon.com on August 8th. It’s a double whammy of awesome.

UltraCreatives Interview #15: Matthew Wayne Selznick

UltraCreatives LogoIt’s the second UltraCreatives interview for you this week, and this one’s packed with history-making exclusive news from author Matthew Wayne Selznick.

Matt is the author of Brave Men Run: A Novel Of the Sovereign Era, a groundbreaking novel that was released in several forms — including print — in 2005. Now nearly three years later, independent publisher Swarm Press has picked up the novel for mainstream release. In this conversation, Matt chats about Brave Men Run and how he’s promoting it. He also shares his scrappy artistic roots and how they greatly influenced his lifelong “Do It Yourself” philosophy.

Coolest of all, Matt announces some exclusive information about his ambitious plans to rush the Amazon charts on July 13 (the book’s release date), the incredible all-day event he has planned … and something truly special that he hasn’t yet announced in the podosphere. It’s history making stuff, and you’ll hear about it here first in this UltraCreatives interview.

Find Matthew Wayne Selznick on the World Wide Everywhere:

In the “talky talk” introduction to this episode, J.C. Hutchins reveals some developments in his own creative world, including:

  • An upcoming interview on OnThePod, and a recent interview on Slice of Sci-Fi
  • An update on where he stands in the editing process of the new novel he’s co-writing, Personal Effects: Dark Art
  • The release date for the new novel, and how that affects the release of 7th Son: Descent
  • A not-so-coy reveal on who’s “blurbing” the book

Coming up next in the podcast feed: FINALLY, the two “Voices From the Darkness” episodes J.C. owes listeners, and then more 7th Son: OBSIDIAN goodness as we roll into mid-week!
