A new Amiga novel, and you can read it for free!
« on: April 13, 2017, 08:10:00 PM »
My new novel recounts the early days of the Amiga computer, and you can read it for free for a limited time.

In Amiga, Laura Rodriguez comes to Silicon Valley in 1985 to start a career as a computer programmer. She wound up in a quirky startup run by a family with secrets. In 2016, Laura faces growing professional and family crises, as well as the most divisive presidential election in recent history. She fears losing her job in the wake of a merger, and she distrusts her new millennial boss. Her daughter has cancer, her son quit a lucrative programming job and moved back home, and her marriage is crumbling – especially when an old flame reenters her life. Laura must find answers from an old Amiga computer and a past she wants to forget.

Interesting, can this be downloaded to read offline at all? I'd pay for a version if not.

Nice!  Just read a little bit of it, I do most of my reading on Kindle, though.  Not sure how well this will work trying to read in a web browser.  Is there a Kindle version available for purchase?

There isn't a Kindle version available for it right now. Inkitt has a mobile app so that you can view it on a smartphone or tablet.
