I guess this could be an official thread for the book.

Best way to get a link to it, though, is the share button on the right: http://amzn.com/B01CW30O9O

Congrats on finishing it and getting it out there

It seems that self publishing on amazon is a bit of a lottery. You can end up on a bestseller chart with just a few sales, but there's no way of knowing how it will reach a lot of people

>Not available in your country

Is this a tax thing?


67a738 No.4122

>>4118

your country probably bans material that isn't considered helpful for the interest of the people's government.

What do you live in southeast Asia or something?

I mean I guess that's possible, it's not available to Asia, India, the middle east, Russia. I'm not sure about South America. It's primarily North America and Europe I think. I don't get a choice in that, I picked it to be sellable in every country possible.

I think the best way to make this truly available internationally would be to have it printed. Then instead of buying it only through amazon kindle thing, you could buy it simply as a physical book. I'd like to do this but I have no idea how. Apparently it's not difficult, SE bought a physical book that was essentially a big string of someone's blog posts. He also bought a post-apocalyptic Falloutish fanfic that DM Aurini had printed into a book (I tried reading it myself and it was pretty much a dud, indeed a fanfic to its core, I can't imagine my werewolf book actually being any worse than that).

I didn't necessarily want to ever make a post pontificating about the deep important meaningful meaning of my big fancy werewolf novel (which features yiffing and scritching and murring) but well here we go.

This right here, this is why the republicans are fucking babies. The right wing is not the rational escape from the increasingly hysterical left, just as the left wing is not the escape from the deluded right, and when both are simultaneously threatened, they will work together to turn on any opposition.

That's what the story of this book is about. Thomas is an isolated lonely loser who finally gets out into the world with the help of Laily. They enter their werewolf clan, which is essentially a neutral centerist group.

On one side, they have the doofus cuckservative werewolves who believe in the lord (werewolf) baby Jesus H. Christ (well not really but it's kind of like that) who thinks that when a werewolf baby is born you must stab them with your wolf claw, it is very meaningful and important for werewolves you see, hm yes, it is an ancient tradition, therefore it must be a good thing.

On the other side, you have the fruity new age werewolves who believe that werewolves should not be carnivores, it is so gauche, and those silly other werewolves with their old dog(!!!!!!!!)matic beliefs, hm yes so silly, instead we worship Sister Luna and Mother Gaia, etc. I laid it on a little thick but I didn't give a fuck, I was just writing to entertain myself at that point.

Both of these clans have hated Thomas and Laily's clan, probably for centuries. Both want his clan to join one of their clans, both seeing themselves as the obvious choice, and Thomas' clan seeing itself as wishing to exist as a free state not beholden to the other clans ways. Thomas is now supposed to be the "king" of his clan (he certainly doesn't feel like one) but he sees no reason to change the clan's ways and join either clan. So both clans hate him far more than they hate each other.

That's why I wrote this book. Originally I planned it as "a lonely nerd gets out and has adventures with a sexy girl, maybe werewolf adventures for hot muscle expansion fetish and also andrew dobson shoves airhoses up their ass double murr" and then I abandoned this story in like 2002 because it was merely an idea. It wasn't until after both Bush eras and into the Obama era did I realize what this story could become.

I'm not saying "Thomas is Donald Trump" though, or pro nazi anything like that. But it's the same situation. Both sides now hate the third option more than they hate each other. The republicans put up the shittiest candidates ever against stupid Obama, and before that the democrats put up the shittiest candidates ever against dumb Bush. Now there's Trump against both of them, and they're digging deep to find anything they can, someone with a laptop and a Trump sticker and white power tattoos. You could do that with any candidate, it doesn't matter, in fact if you've seen "All the President's Men" you know that "rat fucking" is not a new practice. Using the media to discredit any opponents is simply the purpose of politics from its origin. The sad part is how seriously they take it, even the republicans are suddenly aghast at someone with white power tattoos sitting at a Trump sticker laptop with a phone in their hand, golly! "Trump must be the worst candidate," says the party who has run equally shitty stupid incompetent delusional lying candidates for the past several decades. Why the fuck would anyone respect any part of this process?

So like I've said to a few people already: this is kind of a book for no one. And that's how I want it.

The republicans hid their contempt of everyone else for a long time, but this is their way of saying "everyone who isn't on our side is basically a nazi." They haven't adopted left wing tactics, they invented them. "If you are voting for not the democrats but not us either, then you are this person wearing white power tattoos!!!!!!!!" You can sense their desperation. Because they will know Trump will win, and the worst part is that it's not because Trump is even remotely a better candidate, it's simply because Trump is clearly and overtly not republican and not democrat, and pretty much everyone in this country is fucking sick to death of the republicans and democrats and their awful dogshit candidates. Seriously, the best they could do 4 years ago was a guy who said Battlefield Earth was his favorite book. That's really the BEST the republicans could do?


67a738 No.4137

So anyway, the point of Thomas isn't that "here are some political views he has instead of the left or right wing!" It's merely that, like the clan he joins into, and following a life of isolation, he doesn't want to live under other people's repression. In a way I see it more as a symbol of America: it's so fucking free(!!!!!!!!!!!) that other people want to join him instead.

This was a detail that sprang naturally from the story without me having any planning for it. I knew Thomas, being part of this "outsider" "heretic" werewolf clan, would have to interact with others in his clan, and when they did, stories almost created themselves of werewolves who were from the other two clans who left to join Thomas' clan. Then, Thomas' clan outnumbers the other clans, and the other clans realize that against each other they're weak, and against Thomas' clan they're even weaker. But instead of realizing that they're wrong, they take the blame out on everyone else. I guess this is kind of spoily, but hey, read the book yourself, it's only like 150 pages, and at only $5 you can't afford not to buy it! It's actually more expensive not to buy this book than it is to buy it, goodness gracious, also like and reblog and follow us on twitter and like us on facebook and also click and purchase with 1 tap purchasing power http://amzn.com/B01CW30O9O

All that said, it probably won't mean anything, because any republican or democrat who would see me say this would immediately think "well then you must support Trump and your book must be some sort of pro-Trump propaganda!"

They don't understand anything outside of the party politics and partisan ideology. They don't believe there's an outside option from their choices, aside from apathy or anarchy. They think they ARE the alternative to that, as well as thinking they're the alternative to being irrational or weak or useless. Just as the right wing can't imagine that someone can be moral or harmless without being religious, or that it is because of religion that anyone at all is moral, when in factual reality, the opposite became true, where people had the golden rule "do unto others" instinct before any religion ever existed, then they had to develop morality, and only after that then they started to invent religion.

And it's strangely ironic how the right wing now slams the left for being dogmatic in its social justice new age critical theory beliefs. They're right, the left is dogmatic, but since when has the right wing been against unquestionable demanded forms of belief? Are they just jealous that someone's taking their monopoly on it? And in the end, what good is it? Both the left and the right hate dogma, while demanding its necessity in their own forms.

Again, since when is an alternative or aversion to both of these piles of shit suddenly apathetic or anarchic?

So yeah, and then all of this turned into a book about werewolves.

Here's a review that can't be posted to Amazon.

I've been reading SWC for three years, I've listened to every podcast except #100, even the ones you've deleted. I would read every word of every post on your Tumblr until Leth sucked enough cocks to get you shut down. So I know you faggots fairly well and I have a definite fondness for you. But I can't get through a book full of yiffing. I'd still rather deal with a thousand furfags than one SJW, but erotica is strictly for women and homos. I was expecting a book full of gratuitous violence with the occasional sex scene, but this a sexbook with occasional gratuitous violence.

Still, there is some interesting shit here. Like the tons of self-reflection apparent in the protagonist: His abusive protestant parents who kept him in a cage and made him malnourished, his desire to fuck hot big titty animu grils, his very human and very healthy desire to be free. The overwhelming urge to ejaculate inside a delicious brown animu gril who gives you the unconditional love you never got from your parents, without the need for tedious and stressful courting, is simultaneously a juvenile wish fulfillment and a decidedly mature need to cut through society's bullshit.

The protagonist gaining superpowers with no effort on his part, like most superhero fantasies, represents the author's frustration at his helplessness in a corrupt world and a lust for power, both over oneself and over others, though not necessarily for selfish purposes. The fact that Thomas immediately uses his situation to yiff like mad speaks to the author's repressed sexuality and lack of freedom granted by his fucked up mother. The character of Laily is clearly both a replacement mother figure and the non-retard's ideal sex partner: Respectful, honest, supporting, competent, strong-willed but not a cunt, and with huge ass tiddies like all womyn should have. You've crafted a decent waifu in Laily, but I'll be damned if I read all of this furfaggotry.

But Thomas is not a mindless sex machine; he also wants to use his powers for the good of those he cares about and to fight against tyrants who would enslave. You're correct that some retarded reviewers might call you Trump supporters or lolbertarians, but you understand that freedom is more important than all else. ALL else, including shitlib feelings, the thing they value most of all.

The author's prose is surprisingly competent for a fuckbook, though I could have used better descriptions of the physical characteristics of characters who aren't the main two. Also, some moron filled the book with werewolf sex that made it unreadable. Kill urself fag.

You might like the next book more, no werewolves in it. Thanks for the kind words about Laily. And the accurate deconstruction of my gay life. ^_^

There is one thing when it comes to characters, I don't like piling up a lot of them, but I also realized the necessity in this book of having a lot of them. I wrote this book while juggling a job and I always figured that perhaps some day soon I'd have more time to put in detail of other characters and other people's lives, assuming I really want to. I really prefer to write more enclosed stories, limited characters, just focusing on a few. Definitely wanted to keep my first book from sprawling out of control, and I certainly didn't want to be the guy who tries to write the 1,000 page novel about being full of myself and so on. Added to which, I have other books I wanted to get to work on.

You SWC bastards have made fun of Chris-Chan in the past, so now you have a book out I thought I'd give you an ironic taste of your own medicine and destroy something *you* created…

I downloaded the book, and then put my kindle in a blender!

How do you like *them* apples, SWC?! >:D


e67c0e No.4232

But where's the black queer werewolves? Another white cishet male in the lead? GAWD! How am I supposed to read this if there's no one I can RELATE to?

It's a well known fact that blacks are terrified of dogs. You'd never see a black werewolf.

If there were black werewolves, they would kill each other, then blame the white wolves.

There actually is a "black werewolf" in the book.

But you have to purchase it at full price and read the entire book to find it.

Good news though, I dropped the price of the book!

Alright, alright. I bought your book.

Now, I'm gonna turn into fur faaaaaaaag!


67a738 No.4308

Decided to shill the book on the furry board here and on 7chan.

I know I wrote a werewolf novel, but I'm always wary going to any furry boards. For a lot of reasons that I don't even feel like getting into.
