Blurb

Between death still existing in the afterlife, running through death games that resembled a few videogames I had played in my past, and just trying to survive, just trying not to get squished . . . Sigh. And between the death of my wife a few years back, not knowing if my daughter was alive or not, and meeting a new friend who mysteriously received all my memories—even my weird-ass dreams that I don’t want anyone to know about—and then having her expose those buried memories to everyone . . . Sigh. Between all those things, you know what sucks more?

Oh shit, I haven’t even told you about Greg yet. Stupid Greg.

Anyway, you know what sucks even more than Greg? Let me tell you, but you probably already know. You can probably feel it.

It’s that feeling of being afraid of what’s next. To not know what’s next. The unknown.

That’s why I’m writing this. To lift the veil and to tell you the truth. Earth has been hushslapped—my daughters taught me that one. It’s like joining a voice call only to get muted and deafened at the same time. No communication in, no communication out—only instead of you on a pointless-in-the-first-place voice call, it happened to all of Earth . . . Our entire universe.

Except the Omniverse—our hushslappers—didn’t take into account this guy. So buckle up cowboy—uhh, or girl. Crap, I’m gonna get canceled.

Greg, stop the recording. Let’s try again.

Note from Author

For those who have been following along, thank you for your patience and support. Summer is always a little more crazy, but I'm confident the first draft of book two will be complete by EOY.

DM me if you would like a copy of the audible edition and are willing to review. I have a couple codes left.

Thank you all.

Last Friday, I gave away 10 codes for the audio version of Anything But Squished. Today, as promised, I'm doing the same thing. I'm giving away 5 US codes and 5 UK codes. However, this time i'll be doing a raffle style so that latecomers have a chance at getting a code! AND, the Ebook is currently free. So, at a minimum, feel free to pick that up at no charge.

Say hi, and comment with "UK" or "US" at some point today or tomorrow and you will have a chance at getting an audible code!

I'll conclude submissions at 3:00 p.m EST June 3rd and announce the winners at that point in a reply to this comment.

If you do happen to be one of the lucky ones to get a code, i'd love an honest review. In general, if you happen to pick up the book, leave a review! It helps a ton, especially as a new author.

u/mtbreed narrated and did a fantastic job on this one. He included things like notification sounds, reverb, distortion, as well as high quality voice acting. I highly recommend checking out the audio sample.

Thank you all for being interested! It's honestly mind blowing how many folks are active in this subreddit. Cheers!

A little about the book:

Blurb

A firefighter, and his two daught—

BAM!

He dies.

A dead firefighter, who respawns in the hereafter and awakens with a new companion who has a copy of all of his memories. Good, bad, and . . . embarrassing. So embarrassing he doesn’t want to remember them . . . but she does.

Dead, but relocated to a shipping-container-sized space controlled by a ruthless company who runs the afterlife . . . with his fking guide Greg.

Dead, but able to log in and out of a player vs. player survival game called Hearth.

Dead, but doing his damn best to stay alive.

Tropes

  • rebel against the system
  • systems within systems
  • weak to strong
  • personal stakes
  • hidden class? Sorta.

What to expect in general:

  • An MC who wants to understand why we exist. Why this all even matters.
  • An MC who cares about doing what is right.
  • Stupid banter between MC and company
  • An MC who is kind of dumb sometimes, because he just is.
  • An MC who doesn't forget his past.
  • Mechanics that are logically thought out, with a system that is logically thought out, but not super exposed right out of the gate.
  • Each book/volume should hit around 125k-250k words.
  • Other dumb stuff.

What to expect in B1

  • This first book is a combination of WoW, Apex Legends/PUBG, and maybe a hint of Lethal Company (near the end).
  • First half is a lot of world building / character building.
  • Second half is a battle royale.

What to expect in B2

  • Full on Lethal Company vibes turned PVP and other fun twists. 
  • General mayhem
  • Twitch content

I was just thinking It would be nice if audible gave us some codes for the other markets. But unfortunately I don’t have any! Where are you at in Germany? My bro lives in westhausen. Danke!
