Full Moon Discount

The Dark Side of Hunger Mountain, a 100% reader-supported work of fiction which is receiving excellent reviews from readers in 46 countries. Details on how you can financially support this work, via various platforms and direct contributions, are outlined below and most appreciated.

The Substack version has no paywalls so the full novel can be enjoyed effortlessly by everyone. That said, please consider supporting this work with a subscription of $10 a month or $30 annually. You can also contribute more by becoming a Founding Member.

Beyond Substack, The Dark Side of Hunger Mountain is available in paperback, hardcover and eBook formats and, via Barnes & Noble Press and Amazon,

I also offer a quarterly Full Moon Discount on the paperback and hardcover formats. In 2026, this would be for the week around the full moons on January 3, April 2, July 29 and October 28.

My Full Moon Discount is generous—approximately $10 off the hardcover (discounted to $29.75) and $5 off the paperback (discounted to $19.75).

The net to the author for hardcover and paperback sales is already meager so why am I taking it even lower, leaving me with virtually no profit on Full Moon Discount sales?

The answer is simple math combined with faith in my readers. I trust that many of you will transfer that Full Moon Discount—or whatever you’d like to contribute—to me, the writer, via a platform with a higher payout as detailed in this chart.

To ensure a greater percentage of whatever you would like to contribute ends up in my bank account, use Substack with its 85% payout to the writer or PayPal (thplattbooks@gmail.com) and Buy Me A Coffee which deliver 95% returns. If you want 100% of your contribution to go to the author, send a tip via Ko-Fi or use Venmo (thplatt) or Zelle. I also take gold, silver and precious jewels! Thanks!

Please contact me if you’d like to support fund for the next book, an audio version of the two novels, a movie or a digital film series.

I hope, when you howl at the full moon, you’ll remember The Dark Side of Hunger Mountain, share the story link and help support the person who wrote it.

Thank you!
