Shutdown, Again

Jan 22, 2019


I wrote the story, Shutdown, an original Anita Blake story during a very different government shutdown under President Obama. I wanted to give my fans something positive during a very negative event, and here we are again just it’s President Trump now. I’m tired of all the politics and how they seem to care more about being right, then about doing what is right. To all the government employees and the contract workers that are being so deeply impacted by this shutdown my heart goes out. I know you guys are missing bill payments by now. It seems like there are no more grownups left in Washington D. C. to take care of business, or to take care of the people of this country. I don’t even know what else to say, except here for free it is as an ePub or a mobi file for Kindle, while this current and far too lengthy government shutdown continues is a story for you all to read. If this keeps up I might have to write you another story, maybe Shutdown 2, or something brand new.

EDIT: Jan 30 2019: As The shutdown is over, we’ve removed Shutdown once again.

 

for those of you having troubl adding the file to your devices, here is a link to basic tutorial on adding an eBook to your device.

  4. Thank you, Laurell. This made my day. I love this time period when the characters are in sync.

  6. Thank you I missed this the last closure. Others are feeling the government being broke. W IC, snap. I wish Washington would learn to compromise and cooperate. This doesnt have to be win/ loose. It could be win/win.

  7. I started reading the Anita Blake novels while on a mission in Iraq in 2007. They definitely helped me through the deployment and again in Afghanistan 2009. I am completely obsessed with the story and characters. If you like hearing ideas i have thought of an awesome new female character love interest for Anita and her guys. Thank you so much from those of us that have needed to escape the real world.

  10. This is great. Thank you. Are there any other books like this that I have been missing?

  12. This is awesome! Thank you. Are there any more short stories like this that I have missed?

  15. Thank you so much! right now we are barely hanging in there so having a little distraction is key to keeping our sanity as he goes for a second missed check this week.

  16. Thank you. This is great. Can we buy the other ebooks through this website? I bought Dancing and Wounded through amazon and kobo and I can’t transfer the files to my e-reader. This link worked perfectly well.

  17. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for making this available to your faithful fans, Laurell ?? I missed it the first time around and I’m sorry a second shutdown precipitated your releasing it again but I relished every word of this! Yay for Richard owning his truth and yay for Anita keeping her temper when it would have been SO easy to blow the other party out of the water. I absotively, posolutely LOVE Anita’s world and I’m thankful for every word you share with us. ??

  18. I’m unable to send this to my kindle app and can’t open it on anything ?
    I’m not sure what the problem is… Any help would be greatly appreciated

  22. i didn’t get to download or read it :(, is it wrong to hope for another shutdown just to get the copy? 2 sec shutdown maybe? just enough time to download it 🙁
