If I had an active twitter account, I would. ;_; I have an abandoned one that barely sees use and has no friends, though.

(Actually, it's mostly used for trollin', so you wouldn't want my retweet. :V)

Apparently there is a female dancer who also goes by Lady Jules. And so I have TONS of followers who would be really disappointed to meet me in real life ;_;  lol

DO IT, PEOPLE!!

what's the worst that can happen? you win a FREE book?

That's not a bad thing, unless you're allergic to reading (in which case, you should not be on a forum).

Way to go Lord Stark! You were randomly chosen by my youngest. What form would you like your ebook in?

Not sure. I don't have any kind of hand held eBook device. What form works for computer? (Win7)

Well I could get you one that would work for kindle on your browser, or a good old PDF. Your choice :)

how many ships did he sink on? it's sorta confusingly listed. unless he was on three sinking ships.
Title: Re: Wayward Quotes
Post by: bluntsword on April 04, 2014, 04:51:10 PM
I see your point.

The answer is two ships.

Which I suppose only makes the most sense if you read the book, which is not the audience these adverts are intended for.

yeah, out of context it's sorta confusing.

I can fix that. Is it difficult to read? I'm looking at it now and it seems hard to see.
Title: Re: Wayward Quotes

it's mostly that without context it seems out of order. he talks about being shipwrecked and then talks about sailing for a place and then talks about almost drowning.

Yes, I recommend doing a black outline on the text. I dunno what you're using to do that so I can't really instruct how xD  But it would make a difference :ladyj:

I have to say, I enjoyed these quotes.

Shame I couldn't re-tweet, though.  :-\ Ah well.

Black outline made it even more unreadable I'm afraid. Check up top for what I could do instead!

Trying to get some traction on Facebook and Twitter. If you like or share some of these quotes (https://m.facebook.com/retrovertbooks?id=750088515003698&refsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fretrovertbooks), that'd be pretty cool.

No pressure.
