MoonPhrazes July 2022

I see the light!

Or, I think I see the light at the end of this long tunnel that has been this big project. I am nearing the end of formatting all of John Lars Shoberg's books. Now just a few hyperlinks to get set and our new website will go live! {Maniacal laughter.}

But first, a question. How much do you care if the Chapter Headings are NOT centered? I have this one stubborn book that has its own way of interpreting my formatting efforts, and it has decided that when I say Chapter Headings should be centered, I obviously MUST mean they should be sitting on the left margin. (Except Chapter 36, which is happy to sit in the middle of the page, just like I told it.)

I mean, it will look strange, I know that. But does it really matter in the scheme of things? If you opened this ebook and saw that everything I designated as a 'Chapter Heading' was sitting on the left side of the page, would you turn away in disgust? Please feel free to answer, I really want to know.

I've got a couple days left to get this fixed, otherwise...

In any case, our new website will go live on July 15th, 2022. That will be MoonPhazeBooks.com. I didn't hyperlink it because the website isn't running yet. Look for my reminder on July 15th.

At the same time, John Lars Shoberg's books will be published (again) on Smashwords.com. (Maybe not the one that's being so stubborn, we'll see.) And his first book, The Stone Builders, will be free! Allow a few days for that price to percolate to your local ebook store. So, hope to see you all on the 15th!

On another note, Smashwords.com is having a summer sale during July. A number of MoonPhaze's books by other authors are either free or half off. Check them out by going to Smashwords.com and searching for MoonPhaze!

MoonPhrazes November 2022

It's November already! Where does the time go? Did you finish reading your free book, The Stone Ship , by John Lars Shoberg? Don't forget, you can get a free copy of the series starter, The Stone Builders by going to www.smashwords.com. Search either for the title or the author's name, and it should come up. If you like John Lars Shoberg's work, you could try another of his titles, De-Evolution . It looked like the perfect planet to colonize, so the generational ship landed. A year later, 2 children go missing, and are apparently being lead away by a Jabberwocky, a local animal the colonists don't know much about. When the search team finally tracks them down, they find the jabberwockies are the equivalent of late stone age humans, but they once had a thriving civilization. Something is messing with evolution on this planet, and the humans must find what it is and how to deal with it before they also regress to cavemen. You can find De-Evolution at https://M...

MoonPhrazes - July 23, 2022

  At Long Last...   My 15-year-old CPU (computer) went on the fritz last weekend and spent the week in the shop. So even though the new MoonPhaze website went live on Monday or Tuesday, I could not make an announcement. That's one draw-back of having your computer remember all your passwords for you. I am announcing now that the new website is live. You can look it over at MoonPhazeBooks.com . You should be able to buy and download any of the 4 sf novels by John Lars Shoberg that I've got listed. This site sells only ebooks. Also, I have just re-published these same 4 books on Smashwords.com. On Smashwords, John's first book, The Stone Builders , can be downloaded for free. Yes, FREE ! That price may take as long as a week to work its way to your local bookstore, but it will get there. If you enjoy The Stone Builders, you will find it possible to download the sequel, The Stone Ship , for free by following the instructions in The Stone Builders. This is our way o...
