Stories From Elton High -- Now, With Less Fiber
Posted 12 years agoSo, there you have it!
Not even a day after I made the announcement about Rabbit Valley going digital, the first of my books is already available for tree-free purchase.
Stories From Elton High.
If you've read my stuff, chances are, you know exactly what this is!
Here is the link: http://www.rabbitvalley.com/item_86.....lor-Aalto.html
If you so choose, the paperback option is still available. And hey, you can't sign an eBook or put it on your shelf, so both versions have their pros and cons. But now, you can choose. Or hey, buy both!
Oh, and Calibre is the way to go if you should choose to convert for the Kindle. Or go PDF.
Please retweet the link and such wherever you can. Otters, rabbits and foxes thank you!

eBooksss!!! EBOOKS!!!! OMG! I HAZ EBOOKS!!! *applause*
Posted 12 years agoBoys and girls, it's here!
Soon, my books will be available from Rabbit Valley... DIGITALLY! (You pay money, and Rabbit Valley send a bunch of ones and zeros to your adding machine, which you can then read in the form of letters by swirling your eyeballs back and forth. This, in turn, transmits the information into your brain for enjoyment and pleasure. Hands and lube sold separately.)
Got it?
Good!
So, all those people who were all like, "Yo, I want an eBook of your not eBook. Where can I get one? Take my money!" Now, is your chance to make your life's ambition a reality! What's to come may just be the single greatest moment of your life! But don't climax just yet. I'm not finished.
Anyway, it's not now, now... more in like a week, or something. You gotta wait. All good things take time. Stay tuned. And yes, Stories From Elton High WILL be available, as will The Prince of Knaves! Tremble with excitement! But don't pee yourself.
I would've told you guys sooner, but I only found out last week and was subsequently sworn to secrecy. THEY TOOK MY BABY!... No, just kidding. I'm not even pregnant.
Where was I going with this?
Oh yeah.
Buy my books in eBook format!
I prefer print myself. Can't sniff numbers. Do you sniff your books? Did I just make it awkward?
Moving on.
If shipping costs too much or you just prefer to read them on your Snook, give these a try! They're just like Amazon, but without the disgusting selective censorship or fascism.
Come back same time next week for more info! Even if the books aren't out yet, I will still write a journal with an update.
SERIOUSLY!
SAME TIME. NEXT WEEK. BE HERE. OR I'LL FIND YOU!
Enjoy the remainder of your Sunday!

Rabbit Valley will be in contact soon to arrange for a replacement copy.

Like Foxes? Raccoons? Rabbits? How about rare MLP action fig
Posted 13 years agoIf you answered yes to one or more of the above, listen up!
I attended Hasbro's NY Comic Con release party about a week ago, and they gave us a Toys'R'Us exclusive, glow-in-the-dark Zecora! I've been told it's rare, so there we go. Want it? Well, the next 20 people to purchase a copy of my book (link below) will get a chance to win it. Want to increase your chances? Buy a copy for your friends ^.^
This is just a creative way I found of getting rid of cool swag I get from work -- in my line of work, I get a LOT of it.

The Mystic Sands
Posted 13 years agoHey all!
So, in case you don't follow me on SoFurry or Twitter: I have begun posting chapters of The Mystic Sands there some weeks ago. I'd considered posting them on FA as well, but for every 100 readers I get on SF, I get maybe one here, so there seems to be little point. However, if you wish to read, you can click the link below to do so. You do not need a SoFurry account to read.

Hope you're all doing well =)

Lots of Awesome news!
Posted 13 years agoGreetings, friends!
It's been a looong time! After a superbly busy month of August, I finally have a publishing update. Streets of His City and Other Stories is now available for pre-order from Rabbit Valley.
This book has lovely cover art and interior illustrations by the wonderful Fennec, and a cool bonus story! So please pre-order and/or spread the word. This otter appreciates it very, very much!
In other news, I will be attending RainFurrest. If you do as well, and you wish to get your copy of Streets signed, PURCHASE THE BOOK AT THE CON. If you pre-order, it won't get there in time for RF. Additionally, I will be on a bunch of writing panels there, as well as simply hanging around and enjoying the con. Come say hello ^.^
Tl;dr: I'll be at RainFurrest. If you're attending, wait to purchase your copy of Streets of His City there. If you're not, you can preorder right this very second! Here's a link: http://www.rabbitvalley.com/item_85.....r-Stories.html
Thanks for reading, and I will hopefully be posting a free novel up on SoFurry and FA for you all to enjoy in the next few months! (Sorry I've been lax with posting, but life's been going at its usual hectic pace.)
Stay awesome,
Alflor
P.S.
If you're coming to RainFurrest, sound off in the comments!

Sarin Barneby - Errata
Posted 13 years agoHey folks! A reader of mine has already finished the eBook and kindly compiled for me a list of typos. They have been taken care of. I am happy to say that most are simple things like 'it' vs 'is' and 'form' vs 'from,' but if you have already downloaded the eBook, I would suggest updating your version.

-Enjoy!

Sarin Barneby and All the King's Jewels - Now an eBook!
Posted 13 years agoWelcome to the crazy space-year of 2012, time travelers!
Since most of you read stuff in eBook form, I thought I'd do something nice and convert my SoFurry/FA serial novel, Sarin Barneby and All the King's Jewels into both ePub and Kindle formats.
You can download them both here: http://alflor.com/novels/jewels.html
I suck at converting, so if you notice any formatting problems, report them to me at storiesbyalflor@gmail.com. It's all Calibre's fault, anyway :-P
Enjoy responsibly,
Alflor
P.S.
Spread the word. That's how I get new readers.

Important AC-related Business
Posted 13 years agoHi!
So, unless you're reading this from your TARDIS, Anthrocon 2012 is just a little over 2 weeks away. Sweet! I'm gonna be there, so totally say hi if you happen to make it over there.
In addition, and this is the real reason for this journal, I will be doing a reading from The Prince of Knaves onn... Saturday? >.> Don't quote me on that. It'll be in the schedule. At that reading, I will be giving stuffs away. That stuff includes copies of Prince and a few BluRays I got from my old job - I reviewed movies and video games. That's right, be super jealous. My current job just has me doing video games. Still pretty sweet.
Well, what does it take to win something? You gotta read. Read what? Well, Sarin Barneby and All the King's Jewels, of course! I will ask several questions from the book, and if you answer them... you win! Yaay! And everybody's happy. Except for Clark Kent... he's just an idiot. Sorry, I'm watching Smallville right now (middle of season 5), and Kent is just constantly doing dumb things. Team Luthor!
Anyway, hope to see you all at AC!!! Or else.
