Hello All,

Dale and I have been communicating about the recent problems with the Forum here at pspowerbooks.com. It has been decided to retire the Forum and move all author & conversational interactions over to Patreon.

Over the next week or so, I'll be closing down the Forum and creating redirects to start funneling visitors of the Forum over to that URL (the main website showing all the books will be staying).

Thank you everyone for your participation on the Forum these past several years! See you on Patreon!! :mrgreen:

Brent / Argy / ArgyrosfeniX

p.s. Sorry about all of the coding errors. They reset nightly these days and I can't keep up with changing the code that often... :(

Scotch

Welcome to McArgy's Power Pub & Lounge! Where talk of our fine drinks are mixed with deep conversation of various "Power"ful book series.

Make sure to wipe your feet at the door and no roughhousing as we're friends with multiple high demons...

Oh I agree Ron but these are books that he has already released once. A box set with the header "With bonus content" at a good price would probably sell pretty well. I often buy a box set that I was on the fence about buying as singles. It's cheaper and it's convenient. I also think he should get the zombie theme in there somehow. Zombie books sell well and unless you look into it you don't even know that this story has them. I would change the box set cover art to something that shows that theme and adds the info discussed.

Dale has said he doesn't like prequels. But if he were to do a novella of 50 pages or so and release it for a buck at the same time as the release of the box set it would probably generate some decent sales as well. It would be nice to release it shortly before the box set but people have a short attention span and want things right now. Any delay to that instant gratification would cause some to move on or forget about it. Again the zombie theme should be prominent on the cover and a lead in for the box set with bold letters should be at the end. (The novella could cover Jake fighting off the parents and then the struggle to get to the farm)

Oh and since this is the scotch forum....last night I enjoyed a quarter glass of the wonderfully peated 10 yr old Ledaig. Friends are reminded that Argy's lounge has this and many other Scottish Treasures on hand behind the bar. See you there!

Maybe an Anthology with a bunch of side stories would be nice - help to round out the story some with other characters' viewpoints on some of the major scenes. I realize that can get tricky, but in cases where it is done well, it is truly awesome!

McArgy's Power Pub and Lounge thanks Twips for his ongoing coverage of the Scotch theme! :mrgreen:

Ty Argy :) I support any idea that expands the Dead End universe.

Whoa..Lots of emails today about the little spat that Marcia and Argy had on the website updates forum earlier today. No I'm sorry I can't give advice on where to place your bets on the outcome of that battle. I can tell you that both are fine athletes and it will mostly likely come down to who gets the first solid blow to land.. I don't think this will turn into a contest of endurance. Now some of you had questions about my comments regarding the two combatants. I can assure you that I had my staff (Actually my staff is just one intern but she does have amazing assets) has gathered the evidence to show that my comments were right on the money. I have photographic evidence to prove beyond the shadow of any reasonable doubt that my statements were accurate. If my word is not enough I would be happy to show the pictures here on the Scotch Forum to resolve the issue. :)

Now, now, Twips, put those pictures away under your mattress and stop playing with your staff; people are starting to talk.

I know Twips, but you've got to realize what irritating two athletic rump stickers will get you. Wouldn't want to end up in either of their E-Rs.

Ron I was just getting ready to go to bed... Now I'm going to have nightmares of waking up in the hospital with both of them looking down on me with devious grins and those sharp poky sticks aimed at me.

Easy now Argy we're all friends here :) Just a bit of good clean fun to spice up the day a bit! Wait a minute...Catheters come in different sizes? I knew something wasn't right. Those Hens must have used a jumbo on me after the accident. It felt like somebody was cleaning my barrel with a bore brush! If I had been a man of more... modest hardware.. I could have been killed! :shock:
