Aliens Among Us
A New StoryBundle…
Hold on, you can’t buy it yet. I have not put it all together yet, to be honest. I am looking for some great science fiction novels or novellas with aliens in them. Turns out they are harder to find than you might think.
But, of course, I am being selective because I love doing these bundles and work hard to make them the best they can be. The one going right now is CATTITUDE and if you love cat stories and haven’t grabbed it yet, don’t wait too long. It will be gone soon.
So I am being selective looking for novels or novellas that focus on aliens. Not short story collections.
I need a writer with a good social media presence, because the point of these is ten authors promote the bundle (like I just did with Cattitude) and other people read our books that would normally never find them. Twitter, Facebook, a good mailing list, and so on.
I need a writer who has indie published the novel or novella and not done something stupid with it like put it in Select. And it can’t have been in a Storybundle before.
I need a professional-looking cover on the book that will fit with other professional-looking covers.
I need a well-written story, and I need someone I and others can work with for a few weeks on promotion.
I told you I was being selective, but still, you would think that I would have a lot of writers wanting to get into an ALIENS AMONG US Storybundle. But surprisingly not so much.
It has been an interesting experience so far, and I hope in the middle of the month, if all goes well, I will announce the new Storybundle here full of nifty books with nifty aliens. But for the time being, don’t forget to get the Cattitude Bundle.

Sounds awesome. I have something that might fit the bill, but it was in a KJA Storybundle a few years back. Can’t wait to see the lineup for this one.

My novel Azureseas: Cantrell’s War might fit with the bundle. Cover image and blurb at the link.

For future reference, does Storybundle accept novellas now? I thought they had a 50k minimum length.

You are thinking of something else. Storybundle talks to an curator who puts together the type and size of bundle the curator wants. I did one for them that was all collections in December. Holiday stories, did all right.
They take no submissions and wouldn’t know what to do with one if it got sent to them. Curators do it all.
