Last time I talked about Rice Tea, I had this to say:
Back to Rice Tea, the production of the audio book has been very beneficial to me. I didn’t realize to what point some of the dialog was bad – I literally laughed out loud in some bits.
Shortly thereafter, I stopped recording the audio book. I was constantly pausing Audacity in order to change the wording in the novel, and after doing this for the umpteenth time, I decided that I would be better off just to get the bloody book right in the first place. I spent the next few months painstakingly going through every page of the text *multiple times* to QC what I had written. This effort concluded a few days ago with the release of revision ricetea_20-07.
Much of the novel has been reworked, with the dialog having suffered the brunt of the changes. So to everyone who bought Rice Tea before, you’ll now be receiving a complimentary copy of this latest version. I’m very satisfied with what I’ve produced, and I’ll be submitting this last version to Libraries and Archive Canada as part of my legally-mandated deposit.
You can get Rice Tea here.

Sure… go ahead and update 2 days after I add the earlier version to my Kindle. 🙂
Haha – sorry about that! What you have though is pretty close to the very latest version. The only difference between July 30 and August 6 is a reworked introduction.
Do you use the PDF or ASCII version for the Kindle?
Originally the PDF, but it kind of sucked in the conversion. Just grabbed the ASCII and it looks better.
Hey Julien, It’s Ziad, I’ll be buying your book soon 😉
