Get a Free Signed Copy of “Inkbound”

By Jeff Coleman / August 15, 2019 August 16, 2019 / Announcements, Books

Here’s how to get yours.

Each month, I release four unique pieces of flash fiction on a platform called Patreon. My patrons pledge a specific amount per story, and in return receive cool rewards.

If you pledge to my Patreon campaign at the $2 level or above between today and August 26, 2019, I’ll send you a free signed hardcover copy of Inkbound.

I’m only giving away 20 copies, so take advantage of this offer before they’re gone!

If you change your mind after you’ve received the book, you’re free to cancel your pledge, no questions asked. I believe most people are honest and won’t take advantage.

There are only three rules.

1. You have to have a shipping address in the United States to be eligible. I really want to include Canada on this, but I’m mailing these out myself from a US address and international shipping costs are prohibitively expensive 🙁

2. You must become a patron at or above the $2 level on or before Monday, August 26, 2019 at 11:59 PM Pacific Standard Time.

3. You must be a new patron. Unfortunately, former patrons aren’t eligible.

That’s it!

Once you become a patron, I’ll email you for your shipping address, then mail the book 🙂

To become a patron and get your free signed hardcover copy of Inkbound, click or tap the “Become a patron” button below:

P.S. Note that Patreon pledges are recurring monthly charges. Since I post four paid pieces of flash fiction on the platform per month, a $2 pledge amounts to $8 per month.

Dispersed

This post was originally published through Patreon on September 26, 2018.

She closes her eyes, then opens them again, just to be sure they’re telling her the truth. She beholds the sun above her head, clear and bright, and finally weeps.

When they imprisoned her, they said it was for good. “A menace to the world,” they warned. “She can never be free again.” So they bound her—in water and stone, in wind and earth, in fire and sky. They scattered her essence to the four corners of the world, confident that once she was dispersed, she would never be whole again.

But millennia passed, her captors long since dead, and like a thick and unctuous vapor, she started to condense. The vapor became drops. The drops became pools. The pools became an ocean. With every passing century, she became a little more whole, a little more complete. Now, at last, she can open her eyes to a clear blue sky and know for sure that she’s beaten them.

She’ll walk the Earth once more, and this time, there will be no one who can stop her.

In the past, she allowed humans some degree of autonomy. But she underestimated them, and when they came for her, they almost destroyed her. She won’t make the same mistake again.

She sits, feeling the Old Magic rekindle in her ancient veins, and plots her return.
