A promotional image for The Chosen One Con book by Trudie Skies. It shows a background of chimneys with smog and The Chosen One Con book cover along with the text: gaslamp fantasy of bad manners and magical tech. A televised contest of mages to find the "chosen one" in a world of designer enchantments and celebrity-branded potions. Part of The Book Bazaar.
Official post time! Introducing The Chosen One Con, the first in a duology of gaslamp fantasy!.
I'm still writing this book, but the reason I'm announcing it now is because it's part of the @the-book-bazaar.com crowdfunding taking place this November!

A 2000-style ad for a flat screen monitor, with a gray, black, and bright green color scheme. The top says: the brand new IC99 Plasma Monitor. A smaller banner on the bottom left corner prices it at $299.99. A silver logo on the bottom right corner says Krasner Technologies. The advertised monitor is pictured at the center with white text that reads: The fruits of their labor at the palm of your hands. A small, red dot is visible on the top right corner. The background is a never ending gradient of the same monitor, but the darker the blackness gets, the easier it is to see the little red dot on the corner of each monitor.
A bright green banner at the top says Monitored Activity: A Horror Novella. A small purple book, the Book Bazaar's logo, hangs off to the left. The white text reads: Y2K left the world unchanged, but the lot Shaw works on is wounded. Paths of clear slime trail from the parking lot to the security office every night. The new monitors show camera feeds that don't exist, pointed down impossible corridors. The missing girls seen playing in the video store are always gone before he gets the chance to reach them. Even if he's the only security guard on shift, Shaw knows better. His boss told him to mind his business and that he doesβuntil the Mall shows him the kind of monster his boss, Edwin 'Eddie' Conners, actually is. Unfortunately for Shaw, he can't look away from the festering perversions on the screens. A temporary cover for the book floats on the right. A small, red dot hovers on the top righthand corner. At the bottom, a logo with the phrase Sponsored by Krasner Technologies.
A bright green banner, the Book Bazaar logo, and small red dot hang out at the top of the graphic. The main body of text reads: Monitored Activity Synopsis Speedrun. - Two security guardsβ one's totally straight and totally not a serial killer. - The other one is a raging transexual homo who should (absolutely) probably be disgusted by the guy's behavior....... but. - "Does it count as no-clipping through reality if the building itself is acting like the House from House of Leaves?" (both times, the word house is in blue letters) - Yeah, it's gross and fucked up, but like, I'm sure there's an allegory about capitalism and surveillance in here somewhere. - The only person not thinking with her dick is the janitor who is just tired of everyone's bullshit. Let her go home to her wife. She even made meatloaf. - The Mall might be alive and trying to eat people? - No oneβs sure whether this is better or worse than the serial killer security guard Shaw is desperate to fuck. - The new millennium has only been here for like a year, how is it already so fucked up???
A graphic in the same style of the previous three. A shiny logo for Krasner Technologies floats in the middle of the graphic. The quote beneath is says "The answer to our future rests in our past".
He MONITOR my ACTIVITY until I bounce onβI mean, get eaten aliveβ¨
Launching on Nov. 12th as part of @the-book-bazaar.com, you can help me get physical copies of this fucked up π³οΈβππ³οΈββ§οΈ #horror book into your hands!

Hey #IndieAuthors, there's just over a month left to get your application in. We're a group of indies/small press authors who are working together to create a group crowdfunding event for publishing projects where, hopefully, all will succeed.
