"Dearest Plague Rats,
I could not be more thrilled to announce the all new eBook version of The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls, now available on Amazon for the pre-order price of $2.99!!!
It has long been my greatest wish to be able to offer the Asylum story to
Ratties all over the world for a very low price, and this does the job
beautifully.
But! This is no ordinary eBook, my darlings...no indeed!
I have spent many months creating this beautifully designed electronic version
that doubles as a treasure hunt, containing dozens of interactive elements
including new illustrations, hidden links to additional writings and character
backgrounds, atmospheric audio tracks to read along with, secret ways to get in
contact with the Asylum's inmates yourself, and, if you're clever enough to
find the key, exclusive access to never-before-heard songs from the
upcoming The Asylum for
Wayward Victorian Girls: The Musical.
Far from being second best to a print version, I have packed this eBook with
surprises a printed book could never contain.
Oh! And the eBook contains the 4th Edition of the Asylum story which has NEVER
BEFORE BEEN IN PRINT, so, if you happen to already own the hardcover original,
you are in for quite a surprise...this completely re-imagined version contains
new characters, new chapters, new secrets, and a new song!
I humbly thank each and every one of you for joining me on this truly magical
journey...YOU have made the Asylum real, and it is only just beginning..."
