Order The Books - Sell the Books

It's that time of year again. I made a rather big order of my books for distribution, this summer. I peddle these to local and area booksellers and take them with me on speaking engagements. 
We Got a Few Drops of Rain With a Very Nice Sunset Today

I like having the ability to sell books out of the trunk or a big box. Great chance to talk with readers. I sign all of these books, and my nonfiction books have a custom bookmark with them as well. I am looking at designing another bookmark for my westerns. Right now I just enclose a nice business card with web and blog sites, and a where to, for purchasing digital books. 

I Ordered Copies of All But My Two Young Adult Books
 Next Month for Those, as I have a Few Left From Last Purchase. 



All projects going very well right now looks like I will, at last, get my new book out - timeline now by the end of the month. After that, I have another historical fiction and a novella, a western that should follow relatively quickly. By then the snow will be in the air, and it will be time to get back to work on my nonfiction. 


That's about it for now - keep reading and keep writing.

You Can Find Me Everywhere

I posted on my writing site last week that, “Lately I have been a bit dismayed at my book sale totals.”   Then the next week I sell more books than I have all month – go figure. Difficult to tell when a book might sell. I am not very good at self-promoting even if this site was built for that.

With that in mind here are the links to my books, all are available in both softcover and as eBooks. Click a link and take a look, read the free preview and if you have kindle unlimited pick up any of my books for FREE. What a deal.




Speaking of promotion I can be found in many places, take a look at my twitter site, blogs, or on Google +

A Read to Remember Growing up in the 50s and 60s

At last, it is looking like spring, time for a good book to read on the deck, or if you have one, the front porch. If you grew up in the fifties or sixties, these are the books for you. They were written for kids or for grandparents to read to the grandkids, but make good quick reads for anyone with nostalgia for their growing up years, way back when. These are the first two of a planned series of five, which might turn into six.

Fast paced humorous reads, of growing up in the 50s.  Oh, but they are fiction, and that is the reason for a friendly but odd, Ghost in the first book and a mixed up Zombie in the second.

Give them a read see if you can pick out the real from the, just for fun. By the way, the third book, due out this summer, has a couple of senior citizen vampires. As if we old people are not scary enough.

Commitment - the novel

My historical mystery western, Commitment, set in and around Fort Laramie, is now available as a book or eBook.
It took a few extra weeks, but I am pretty happy with the final. I had to make some changes on the cover and in the authors notes in the back plus I wanted to shorten it a bit, the soft cover is 350 pages, now all is well. Order it today as a soft cover book or eBook. 

I am now at the editing stage for my book of Christmas shorts, still hoping for November first release.

Off to My Reader

My nonfiction book is complete and off to my first reader. Hope she likes it and doesn't have more than an hour or two worth of changes for me.

If all goes well, The Civilian Conservation Corps & the Building of Guernsey State Park - With Folktales and Stories of the Park, will be out in the next month or two.
Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps

Meanwhile my two young reader books, one a ghost story and one a zombie tale are finished and I am deep in the process of editing. Should have them both complete and off to a different first reader, two in fact in another month or so. 
Melvin the Ghost


Life is busy - more to come here soon. I failed to mention all three of these books will be available in both print and eBook. Can't wait.
Took time for a great hike today
