I am starting a blog today... Somehow, I think that it will help me out with my book selling (which is at zero right now)

This is the book I got from Amazon, it is a "proof" book. I was so happy when I first got it, and then as always, you start checking the little details. In this case, the margin is not properly cut, and it did have some minor details on my behalf, e.g. I did have two repeated 21 chapters, and many little inconsistencies everywhere.

My father told me that it was ok, the most important thing was the contents, and yes, part of me agree with him, while the fascist part of me: the one that wishes to end all of humanity in a hellish ocean of fire, tells me that the devil is in the details. Both are right.

So last night, I was correcting all these stupid minor details, that and at the same time I was fighting with my computer software. Let me explain: I love Microsoft Word, I grew working with the stupid program, it was the only option back then, right? But it has flaws... I spent three or more days trying to find a solution for my table of Contents, I wanted only to show the number page of the various subtitles, not the main titles, I couldn't! 
I downloaded Libre Office (which is really better nowadays) and Table of Contents in LO is easy peasy... Alas... my eccentric, and demanding ass wanted to reformat all the page numbering to their "external" sides (just as in any other fucking book!) I couldn't even set the proper numeration in LO... So I goggled and it turns out that you can do it, but it depends on your version, which was really hard to find in all the tutorials and you tube channels... I decided to set up my numbers as they were before (in the middle of the page to avoid a fuck load waste of time)

To make matters worse, the computer that I am using to write (an old Acer stupid machine) seems that it is having problems with its energy feed. For some reason, the software might detect that it's plugged in, and then it will detect that it's not plugged in. This results in a symphony of high pitching noises telling you that your stupid computer is plugged in, and 0.5 of a second it is not.

But I really need to contain my anger.

Last time, I was really pissed off (and drunk) to my laser printer. I think I might hurt it, in its soul. I can print, but I need always to press a button that blinks red... fucking stupid machines with feelings. Who was the genius that decided to install feelings on computers and printers?!

Anyway. This is supposed to be my blog to promote my books, I am doing them myself, and I will keep on updating each and everytime.

See you around strangers!

Wanna help this poor writer and his poor family? Don't be a prick, and buy the e-book, or the "physical" one

This was going to be the Abyector... a word that doesn't exist in English, and was not in my vocabulary... but Abyecto in Spanish does exist and it basically means: someone that is really a scumbag... and since it doesn't exist in English, I will now baptize this cool creation of mine as an Abyector ©. Why not? this is my world, this is my realm.  And it is funny how sometimes words come to you... I was going to save this guy in Krita , but I lacked its name... and my inner voice told me: Why not Abyector? and I was like... what the fuck is an Abyector? what does that even mean? A little search with my friend, Mr. Google, and I mistook the first result which was in Spanish... so... a happy mistake. Anyway... I was thinking of introducing the machines on the second volume of my saga: a full robot armada, besieging our magical and strange world. I even wrote the chapter for it, but I decided to wait... there will be robots, but just small killing squads terrorizin...

Glider V.2.

This is the Saurian glider , it is slightly modified from the previous one , but this is what I love about engineering; the beauty of precision. I learnt Autocad a long time ago, learning inventor is entirely something else, and I still prefer Autocad for doing 3D models, Inventor requires lots of practice and has lots of bugs; nonetheless, it has plenty of advantages over Autocad. Anyway, we are not here to discuss about Inventor or Autocad, the glider is a fighter for the Saurian Empire . These specific crafts have a huge disk on the middle which allow them to ascend or descend in a quickly matter of time (they use centrifugal force). Their wings are just to stabilize them on flight but essentially their way of moving is because of this central disk... and I still need to imagine about the rest of the saurian air/space vessels and the rest of the congregation , i.e. the ones commanded by the Sergovnian , the Mourasam's (on book 2), and about the machine's as...

The real Narco Mexico

These are some of the different classes of Saurians . The Trackers have enhanced senses of smelling, hearing, and seeing. They are widely used in Saurian patrols to pursue or locate their enemies.  Changelings can "transform" into their enemies (provided, these don't have great smelling senses, or magical traps). Changelings are used as infiltrators; their job is to sow panic and chaos behind enemy ranks. Fighters or Soldiers tend to be shorter, bulkier, but stronger. They can't move swiftly as the previous classes, instead, they are fighting masters, and are the most resilient of them. They are an important faction in my book: Magika Scientifica B1: Tainted Sun   As you can see, I did use some delimiting line to mark them... it is really hard to just drop that thin black line... so... mea culpa, mea culpa. By the way! Happy holidays and etcetera . The real great thing about these holidays is that the family gets together, and you can infect ot...
