I think I have excitement triggered insomnia.  I couldn't sleep earlier, so I got out of bed and here I sit, on my couch, waiting for the Patriots game to start.  I think I'm amped up because I finally got Phil's story posted to the website, and I think it's probably the best thing I've ever written.
I mean that.  I'm very proud of it and I desperately want to hear feedback about it.  Not sycophantic bullshit, but legit feedback from peers.  I think it's stand up as a great piece.
I also think if I can get folks to read it, they will join my site, and become fans. 
We've had four great days in a row, one of those was spectacular, and I have a strong feeling that after today, traffic will be way up.  The Walking Dead has a new episode tonight, and if Joe and I can get a few messages into the Facebook even that're timed well, i think we can add another dozen members.  At least.  I think we're almost at the point where we'll be adding 6-8 members a day.  Right now we've been in business 15 days, and we have almost 50 members, and god knows how many unregistered readers.
I feel successful, but there are so many moments where I feel like the site should be growing much faster.  This feels like project that could.. you know. be the one.

Its sort of frustrating trying to promote a website.  There are so many websites out there all trying to do the same damn things.  Trying to make a site thats unique, and offers something people want is tough.
I would like to think the writing I've got up on adriansundeaddiary.com is good, I would really like to think that's its above average, and possiblyexcellent.
But how do I get more folks to go there and read it?  I put links all over the place heading to the site, I put links up on my site leading to others.. I spam facebook profiles wth similar interests, I spam facebook profiles with totally different interests...  I've got a facebook ad running...
I need more ideas people!  Anyone out there with more expertise than me with some advice?

yay contests!

We have announced our first official contest over the main site.  It's kind of a crappy prize, but it might be awesome for people.  Head over there to get the details on winning free signed stuff!

New fiction for the diary

For those of you who read the website currently, I have an announcement.  Starting soon I will be writing some companion fiction set in Adrian's world. 
These pieces will be short fiction based in Adrian's timeline focusing on the people that he has encountered in his travels and exploits.  Not everyone will get thier day in the sun though, only some folks.
More of Adrian's town and situation will come to light with these stories, and readers will get additional insight into him, his world, and his situation.
I woud love hear back from readers about what they think about this, and what they would like to see in these short stories.

November's first entry

Hey folks!  November 2nd's entry is now live on the website.  Written with love by yours truly. 

Check it out!
