New Mechantine is finished

10/31/2011

5 Comments

 

Greetings folks!

Well “New Mechantine” has been finished.

It’s as nice a piece of work as I ever have put together my friends. Filled with action, adventure, excitement, and enough of the truly bizarre to keep even a veteran flim-flammer like myself entertained.

So it’s off to the literary agent’s desks, the publishing houses and the book fairs “New Mechantine”!

 And let us all wish it good luck and a swift and lucrative publishing for all involved.

Now friends, a quote:

New novel...New Mechantine

Greetings!
Well I am finally finished. Finished with what you ask? Well oh quizzical readers I am finally finished with the initial edit of my latest work of significant length. What some would term a novel. What I would term a lot of fun.

The working title right now is "New Mechantine" and it is, as some of you may have guessed, set in the very same world as such tales as: "The Counting House Fever", and "The Possibility of Flat Sea Ghosts".

It is a steampunk tale about a city, about its people, and about learning to fit in and live. Also there is a clockwork boxer in it...and a heist...and sky-pirates. So yeah.

I will be doing my second read through later this month but for now I will be taking a much deserved break.

A Confidential Correspondence in Capitalist Conflict

07/07/2011

Greetings dear readers!
Though I have, for the most part, been busy with the writing and editing of a new full length novel: let no one say that the always enigmatic P.F. White is a slacker in the publishing department!

The always excellent Aphelion Webzine has just published my story: "A Confidential Correspondence in Capitalist Conflict" in their latest issue...and let me tell you: this one is a crowd pleaser.

We have trains exploding in cannon-fire, Chinese rockets, zombified rail-workers, dogs, birds, polite correspondence, childhood rivalry and always the delightful specter of capitalism.

So if any of these things appeal to you, or in fact disgust you: then head on over to the link:
HERE.
and have yourself a read!

And now my friends: A quote.

Greetings dear readers,
It has come to my attention of late that my novella: "Red-Ray Noir" has NOT been available for sale on the Barnes and Noble website! Such a despicable act naturally had to be remedied and thus I give you the new website for all your Red-Ray Noir needs:
HERE

That being said, a quote is order I think:

Success!
The always enigmatic P.F. White has now successfully formated his three novellas:
"Beastly"
"The Nine Ronin of Four Waves Castle"
and:
"Red-Ray Noir"
For the smashwords website!

It was a tireless effort dear readers. It involved late nights, fist-fights and the occasional bout of madness...but in the end all three have been (hopefully) correctly formated for the website and can be viewed at:

Greetings readers!
The tireless P.F. White, in an effort to inundate his writings across the whole of the internet, will shortly be featured across the website: Smashwords and all its affiliates.

For now however: it's the thankless task of formatting. So much formatting...

The Glorious Ray-Gun Revolution is UPON US!

Greetings Comrades!

Much to the chagrin of our fearless superiors, P.F. Whites amazing new Retro-Sci-Fi Novella: "Red-Ray Noir" is now available through that despicable capitalist institution Amazon.com.

A link may be found: HERE.
 
While the work, as a whole, is praiseworthy to those seeking to relive the glory days of the United Soviet Space Republic or those souls simply seeking a cold hard tale of crime, aliens, violence, space-age technology, and substance abuse- the blatant marketing of such fiction for the pursuit of monetary gain is to be found despicable! 

Thus all proceeds from such a purchase will be put towards the building of a fleet of invincible space-dreadnaughts for the inevitable renewal of open conflict upon Jupiter.
