Nothing to do with email, copywriting, marketing, or bid\u2019niz.<\/p>\n

But, here\u2019s an announcement anyway:<\/p>\n

I decided to put the first novel of my 7 book \u201cEnoch Wars\u201d series up on the Internet free.<\/p>\n

No opting in.<\/p>\n

No banner ads.<\/p>\n

No registration required.<\/p>\n

I simply thought it\u2019d be fun to give people a, uhm, taste<\/em> of what these books are about by giving the first book away gratis in plain text format anyone can read on any browser (even if you have a web browser from 1997) \u2014 with or without any special software, devices, or gizmos.<\/p>\n

The link is here:<\/p>\n

Again, I don\u2019t know if it\u2019ll help your marketing at all.<\/p>\n

(Although it might, who knows?)<\/p>\n

But, an awful lot of world class copywriters, marketers, and bid\u2019niz people have raved about it.<\/p>\n

For example:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201ca fun, entertaining, engaging, and compelling read that draws you in and keeps you turning pages\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Bob Bly<\/strong>
\n (A-list copywriter & bestselling author of over 80+ books)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI couldn\u2019t stop reading\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Dan Gallapoo<\/strong>
\n (World Class Copywriter For Agora Financial & Other Prestigious Direct Marketing Companies)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cExtremely engaging and makes you not want to put it down\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Eric McMillan<\/strong>
\n (World’s Leading Pay-Per-View Ad Marketer & traffic guru)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTo keep up with Zombie Cop, book writers and Hollywood are going to have to step-up their game. The bar\u2019s just been raised\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Greg Perry<\/strong>
\n (Oklahoma\u2019s #1 used & rare book dealer & world\u2019s \u201cmost published\u201d author of computer books)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cReading [this] book and designing the cover were a lot more fun than most of my work!\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Kirk Douponce<\/strong>
\n (Book cover designer for all the world\u2019s biggest book publishers, such as Simon and Schuster, McGraw Hill, Harper Collins\/Zondervan and Thomas Nelson)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re into ruminations about the secrets and mysteries of ancient times, Sacred texts, and the never-ending saga of supernatural battles of good and evil \u2014 again \u2014 you. will. love. it.\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Caleb Osborne<\/strong>
\n (Full-Service Advertising Agency Owner)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cMost satisfying book I\u2019ve read in months\u2026Bought it on Thursday and was done by Friday night\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Yoav Ezer<\/strong>
\n (Owner of one of the world\u2019s most prestigious services for helping authors get published)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cthe characters, though demented, almost had this dry sense of humor in their thoughts. I was getting a kick out of their own self talk. Plenty of fight scenes\u2026 plenty of gore\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 J.E. Clair<\/strong>
\n (Head copywriter for some of the highest selling companies on ClickBank)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cSurprisingly a lot of depth to this book \u2014 layers upon layers of bad guys, layers of story lines, and of course, a sense that there\u2019s another book to come\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Stephen Dean<\/strong>
\n (One of the most prolific copywriters in the Northwest US)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTotally gruesome, twisted stuff. LOVING IT TO PIECES.\u201d<\/strong>
\n \u2013 Jim Yaghi<\/strong>
\n (Computer Scientist, Leading Google AdWords & Traffic Specialist)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Anyhoo.<\/p>\n

Yes, the book is deranged.<\/p>\n

No, it\u2019s not a \u201cnice\u201d story full of unicorn farts and sunshine.<\/p>\n

And, of course it\u2019s not intended for people under 18 yrs old.<\/p>\n

But you know what?<\/p>\n

I daresay my free novel will be the most entertaining read of the year for you.<\/p>\n

And if not?<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll give you your non-money back.<\/p>\n

Bon App\u00e9tit\u2026<\/p>\n
