I’m busy at work, finishing up the extra chapters of the first novel in my series of libertarian novels, The Conscience of Abe’s Turn. And when that’s done, it’ll take a few weeks to get the first real copies. I’m going to be giving away a limited number of these very first copies. (I don’t know how many yet.)

A story of Espionage, Romance, and Abuse of Power in the fictional town of Abe’s Turn
Somewhere in America, the people live in a police state. Ted and Clydene Jackson have felt it personally. So have their friends Mira and Michael, and all the victims they’ve tried to help, and all the volunteers lobbying to remove Police Chief Baedes from power. For Baedes’s sole ambition is to “protect” the town of Abe’s Turn, at all costs, even if he has to destroy a few innocents in the process. And he will knock down anyone who tries to get in his way.
However, these four friends, unknown even to them, have the means, motive, and opportunity to restrain the forces around them, if they dare… and if their own feelings for each other don’t stop them before they even begin.
Politically incorrect, distinctly libertarian, and teeming with complex characters, this epic novelette series (with a planned 24-episode story arc) explores the heart of freedom and the dangers of power. It blurs the lines between state, revolution, and terrorism. It asks what Thomas Jefferson once asked: “What country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance?”

About the Giveaway
I don’t know how many copies of the novel I’ll be giving away, but I do know I’m giving away a limited number. Here’s the thing: I’m only giving away these free books to people who pre-register by signing up for the “Abe’s Turn Premium Content” email list. This is a low-volume email list that will include announcements of contests and giveaways, new Abe’s Turn products, and links to stories and essays not published on the website.
Also, I ask that if you enter the giveaway (when the time comes) that you be willing to give me a short testimonial. Just a quick, one-line review (positive or negative), or a one- or two-sentence comment. (I’ll even help you write it.) Or that you post (and email me the link) a review on your blog, or on a third-party article site, or somewhere else on the Internet. The review can be positive or negative. (“Love me. Hate me. Just please don’t ignore me,” as they say.)
If you don’t know whether you’ll want to enter this giveaway, start by reading why you might hate The Conscience of Abe’s Turn and preview the text of the story online.
