Synchronic: 13 Tales of Time Travel

by Michael Bunker

  And a special thanks to Michael Bunker, my partner in bringing Synchronic to life. This anthology was his idea in the first place, he recruited the bulk of the talent, and I’ll always be grateful to him for bringing me on board. Michael’s readers already know that he’s a brilliant author, but I can assure you that he’s more than that: he’s also a talented collaborator, a good man, and my friend.

  A Note to Readers

  Thank you so much for reading our stories; we hope you enjoyed them. And if you did, could we ask of you a very small favor?

  Would you write a short review at the site where you purchased the book?

  Reviews are make-or-break for authors. A book with no reviews is, simply put, a book with no future sales. This is because a review is more than just a message to other potential buyers: it’s also a key factor driving the book’s visibility in the first place. More reviews (and more positive reviews) make a book more likely to be featured in bookseller lists (such as Amazon’s “also viewed” and “also bought” lists) and more likely to be featured in bookseller promotions. Reviews don’t need to be long or eloquent; a single sentence is all it takes. In today’s publishing world, the success (or failure) of a book is truly in the reader’s hands.

  So please, write a review. Tell a friend. Share us on Facebook. Maybe even write a Tweet (140 characters is all we ask). You’d be doing these authors a great service.

  In fact, go ahead and do it now.

  There is, after all, no time like the present.
