In the spirit of “a rising tide lifts all boats,” this year for Self-Published Authors Appreciation Week I wanted to give some Self-Published authors a chance to spread some love (while also indulging in a bit of self-promotion, I mean, c’mon, it’s hard out here…)
An Elevator Pitch for Something You Love
The Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons
With all the Dune hype, I’d like to expose people to Dan Simmons’ Hyperion series. It’s only 4 books, and some short stories, but it’s not as dry as Dune and in my opinion, it’s better.
Silo Series by Hugh Howey
As for someone else’s self-published work? All I can think of is Hugh Howey’s Silo series. It’s like THX1138 meets Metro 2033.
My Elevator Pitch by Nathan Ogloff
The Sapien Empire is a post-apocalyptic epic where civilization is making a comeback.
About this Author
Nathan was born in New Westminster, British Columbia and has had a fascination with story ever since he wrote a couple of pages to a time-travel book when he was in third-grade.
He believes we live in an interesting time that seems to be on the knife’s edge between a spectacular future or an abysmal landscape of decay. Through his stories that force us to take a deeper look at ourselves, he aims to foster a world of mutual understanding.
Although not the most qualified guy to fix the world’s problems, his writing just might give those-that-are an idea of how to do it. When he’s not writing, Nathan spends his time adding to his ever increasing heavy-metal Spotify playlist and creating spaceships in Lego Studio.
All his social media and other links can be found via my website. www.nathanogloff.com
Be sure to check out The Silo Series and The Sapien Empire, let’s show them both some love!
