Join the squad!

As mentioned in prior posts, I am diligently working on Book 1 of my Tocharian Gospels series, the Slaying of the Bull. The four-book series is going to be quite the endeavor comprised of roughly 1,500 pages of text and covering 780 years. The saga will transcend into other planes of existence and will cross genres. Generally, it should be a good read.

It is an ambitious project, and I’ll need your help! The Island of Stone was my first self-published eBook, and I’m learning a lot. When publishing an eBook, you are not just the writer but also the publisher, and you have to focus on things other than just the art. I’ve been studying, and I’ve made some mistakes putting Island of Stone out there. I was excited and probably rushed its launch. With the Tocharian Gospel Saga being such a significant endeavor comprised of multiple books, I want to make sure I do everything right this next round.

One of the critical aspects of “doing things right” is pulling together a Launch Squad. It sounds like some sort of superhero group, and in many ways it is. Members of the Squad will have first access to my new books before they’re launched (entirely for free). Their task? Just to read them and provide me feedback before they’re unleashed onto the world. No prerequisites required. Also, although not mandatory, it is encouraged that members of the squad produce a short Amazon review to help give the book a gentle nudge forward. In exchange for feedback and help, I will list you in the acknowledgment section of the book and provide members of the Squad with a free signed paperback copy of the work.

If you are interested in joining the Squad, send me a message here. The first ten or so people that reach out can join the Squad and become an integral part of my work.

Cheers!

Scott Austin Tirrell loves dark speculative fiction, conjuring isolated worlds where ancient mysteries, the raw power of nature, and the paranormal entwine. His work is steeped in the arcane, drawing from the forgotten corners of history and the unsettling grasp of the supernatural. With a style shaped by Clive Barker, Frank Herbert, and Joe Abercrombie, he crafts narratives that pull ordinary, flawed souls into the extraordinary, where reality frays, shadows lengthen, and the unknown whispers from the void. He has self-published eight books, with Koen set to come out in 2025 under Grendel Press. Residing in Boston with his wife, he draws inspiration from the region’s haunted past and spectral folklore. Scott invites readers to step beyond the veil and into his worlds, where every tale descends into the deeper, darker truths of the human condition.
