I like a target, preferably with a reticle around it with a flashing red 'locked' light.

I'd love to get one, too. Hardcover please if I may choose.Steve wrote:Any chance of a printed version?
Edit: to avoid misinterpretation: "get" by means of going to a (virtual) store and buying one

I will sort out a 'real' book after the ebook launch. Infact, I'll put together each on in the same format so you can buy a box set. (Status Quo and Mutabilis are currently out-of-print.)
I'm hoping to include Clym's excellent G1 map in the book somehow - so still looking to see how to do that.
I don't see any reason I can't make a hardback version. I'll check and see what options are available to me. I'll bring out the standard paperback version first though.
Cheers,
Drew.

It's not actually that difficult. Once you've got the text you convert to a specially formatted pdf, upload the graphics, put some blurb together for the back cover and jobs a good 'un. At the other end it's all done by print-on-demand.

Drew.

Is that really your wife on the cover? You must be very proud!

It's just a gun as far as I'm concerned. 
Maybe it will still be in use in 3151. Should have known folks would know exactly what it was... there you go!
There is a good reason for it though. We discover something about Thargoids during the story, and 'traditional' weapons are called for...
I didn't dare ask my wife for a picture, I pinch enough of her mannerisms for characters in my books. Certain phrases that Rebecca comes out with get me 'the look' when she's proof-reading... and we haven't got a G36 either.
EDIT : And today I finished the first draft... woo hoo!
Cheers,
Drew.
