HIJACKED!!

November 30th, 2009 by Michael Dyet

Michael’s blog has been hijacked for this one posting by his alter ego who insists he really must do more to make people aware of his unique internet-enhanced novel which is, after all, receiving quite glowing reviews.

Michael is tied up and gagged in the storage room of his apartment. He will be released when this posting has gone public. Michael’s Metaphors of Life Journal will return to its usual format after this posting.

The Metaphor Tour Cyber Book Launch

Michael Robert Dyet, aka The Metaphor Guy, is pleased to announce the “Metaphor Tour Cyber Launch” of Until the Deep Water Stills: An Internet-enhanced Novel.

The tour includes stops at several related websites and concludes at Michael’s blog:  Metaphors of Life Journal aka Things That Make Me Go Hmmm.

TOUR STOP #1: http://www.mdyetmetaphor.com/

My personal website. Learn a bit about me and this curious thing called an “internet-enhanced novel”. Listen to audio recordings of me reading excerpts from the novel. Be sure to stop in at the Book Review page to hear what readers and reviewers are saying about my novel. A few sample comments:

“The most engaging thing about this book is how real it seems…”

“This is a great book! Michael is an amazingly sensitive and intuitive writer…”

“This book is fantastic…

“Michael Dyet offers a glimpse into the evolution of the novel…”

“The writing is excellent…”

“Mr. Dyet’s writing style is compelling – very eloquent use of language…”

TOUR STOP #2: http://mdyetmetaphor.com/blog/

The novel’s optional online companion. A unique concept of my own creation featuring text, photographs and audio recordings. See for yourself how the characters come to life with their unique, online identities.
