I've started publishing the novel I wrote to promote EA

Currently I'm just uploading it to Royal Road, but in the next week I'll also post it to the spacebattles forum, and around the start of January I'll publish a copy to Amazon. 

So, if you find this project interesting, and use Royal Road, follow it and maybe leave a comment there. Also, if there is a site you use to read and discover fiction that would be appropriate for me to publish this to, tell me, and I'd love to put my novel there.

If anyone can help in some way to tell people who they think might like a Isekai/portal fantasy novel about an effective altruist trying to do as much good as he can after he died and woke up with super magical powers in a fantasy world, please do so.

Thanks!

Well done! Just as Jesus spoke in parables, EA must speak in Isekai/litrpg. Read first chapter to my kids, they liked it, but are now distracted by "mother of learning". I just read books and chapters randomly at bedtime to them.

Hahaha

That's actually a good idea. I just had my first who is 7 weeks old right now. So I should probably start making some up for her in a year or so.

Actually, I think someone is trying to make EA themed children's books. I saw an example cover for one from a friend, but I have no idea if this was just a cover, or an actual project.

And Mother of Learning is likely to be better -- but with less EA themed philosophical arguments and streams of thought.

A collection of EA bedtime stories would be great!
