So I wrote a book

(Sort of.)

A book cover, black, with the words "Mark Reads Twilight" staggered down, and a photo of a smashed apple. Book is by "Mark Oshiro."

The Mark Reads Twilight ebook is real. I now have a storefront where I will be selling merchandise for Mark Reads and Mark Watches, as well as newly adapted books representing each set of my reviews for past series.

Wait, you might be saying, I have already read those reviews. Why would I buy a book?

HERE’S WHY:

  • These are adapted for a book form. In the course of doing so, many reviews had to be drastically changed to fit, so reviews are NOT THE SAME as they were before.
  • I have removed problematic language, metaphors, and contexts, so that also changes hefty portions of the reviews.
  • I have quite liberally scattered the text with footnotes providing more insight into writing this project. Most are incredibly silly.
  • There are still pictures.
  • It’s all in one book!
  • It’s currently available in PDF or ePub forms, with Kindle books coming this weekend.

This is a huge, huge, HUGE day in my life. Pending the success of this book, I’ll be able to get t-shirts, bookmarks, coffee mugs, and more ebooks in the store. 

Thank you all for the wonderful support you have given me. I’ve been sitting on all this for about a month and I am so stoked to reveal it. Onwards to an unknown, frightening, and exciting future!
