dysonrulesBefore we became crazed fangirls and slash writers twasadark and I were fantasy writers who also owned a small electronic publishing company. We ended up publishing eight original novels. Wooo!!! It was a lot of fun (and a lot of work!) and we learned loads about genre publishing. Well, we’ve decided to resurrect XC Publishing, but with a twist.
Basically, we’re trying an experiment. Beginning July 1, we will offer one of our novels in serialized fashion – FREE. We’ll publish one chapter per week until the novel is finished – and then, depending on the response, we may offer it in paperback (for purchase) as well. We are currently building a free online newsletter to publish the chapters in. Our goal is to have 500 subscribers by July 1st. Since we have around 50 subscribers right now, we are doing some promotion to try to reach our goal.
If the below description sounds at all interested to you, I hope you'll consider join our free online newsletter – or friending our XC Publishing LJ comm by clicking here. And if you want to forward this info on to others who might be interested I certainly won't mind - lol!
Here’s the scoop on the novel:

Here’s the scoop on the novel:
THE GAUNTLET THRONE
by Cheryl Dyson & Xina Marie Uhl
Brydon's quest was simple. Borrow the fabled Gauntlet of Ven-Kerrick, bring it home to prove his worth, marry the princess, and ascend the throne.
He had planned for the dangerous terrain and Redolian assassins, but he did not count on slavers and werewolves. He did not expect the Gauntlet to be missing, nor to find the Kerrick royal family murdered, and he definitely did not anticipate the distractions of a sultry thief and a rescued slave girl.
Luckily, his worst enemy was there to help him out.
Thank you in advance!!!!
PS – if you are curious about why we’re doing this and what we hope to get out of it, leave me a comment and I’ll tell you.
