Jim and Linsa and Friends Frolicking and Fucking

Check it out! You can read inside.

Otorongo is sweeping the universe with intense erotic content. It's also funny, satirical, humorous, hilarious, outrageous, comical, and also borderline pornographic, redeemed only by its outstanding literary value.

Blush!  Wasn't sure how she'd take it.  I certainly meant it as the ultimate compliment.  You said you got it.  Did you get the ebook or the paperback?  Amazon or iUniverse?  I don't know if I've had any sales other than you, but there's a lot going on at the moment behind the scenes, including a "Hollywood Treatment."  Blowin my life savings on promotions (well, not quite).  My concept is sort of a Fritz the Cat meets hentai animated film with Miley Cyrus doing the voice overs of Mindu in the sex scenes and maybe Scarlett Johansson doing Linsa and Adam Sandler doing Jim.  (Ha ha!  Sure.  What a lark.)  Not sure about Jod.  @JACINTO2

I got the ebook, on amazon. After I read it, I will have questions for you, I'm sure! So far, it's a normal  relationship. Whatever the male thinks is wrong.

My over the top sexy New Age novel Otorongo is a real book! I've been blogging about what it's been like going through the publishing process for the last few months and it's now actually available in paperback and ebook!

You can look inside and read it on Amazon here Amazon and on iUniverse here iUniverse. And of course you can order it too.

First copy of Otorongo arrived today. Didn't think it would arrive so soon. Thought it was Thraxas by Martin Millar which I ordered from Amazon last week. so I started to open it -- Whoa! -- saw the spine! It's in there. Sitting on my desk. Unopened still.

Whew! Smudged with palo santo. Florida water. Think I'll roll a joint.

Smoked it.

Tension mounting. Mmmm.

Spent the last 48 hours wrestling with the proofs of Otorongo.

The good news is I got the list price down from $28.99 to $18.99. Just when I thought I was grasping the logic of iUniverse's pricing decisions -- i.e., studying their online bookstore, checking out the pricing of different length books and concluding that the list price was set at approximately .065 cents

I got to have my heart broken for a while last night when I woke up at 1:50 a.m. and couldn't get back to sleep again. I think insomnia is one of the most interesting states of consciousness. It had to do with the book, of course.

So I received the proofs!! Totally astounding. They came out of thin air without me ever even having...

For some reason they wouldn't use my original design, but this is close enough in the interests of moving the process along. The book takes place in Jim's Third, Fourth and Fifth Chakras -- thus the yellow, green and sky blue. The vertical columns suggest kundalini energy to me. But they also represent the jungle. The white lettering of OTORONGO just seemed obvious to me....

I've been resisting reporting on the progress with self-publishing my novel lately because the whole thing has been getting rather fuzzy. I'm in the cover design phase, and have been for about three weeks, making no recognizable headway.

A word about iUniverse -- and perhaps about publishers in general, a breed I've never had any experience with, despite being of advanced age (where are the

I've decided to go with this whole expensive, self-indulgent process of self-publishing on the theory that what I'm doing is OUTRAGEOUS!

So I'm actually into this for 10 grand, and no book has even been produced yet. I'm embarrassed to admit it. But it could be considerably more. I saved two grand during the editing process by editing it myself. I bargained my promotion package...
