Get Good Cheer Holiday Bundle…
Really Excited About This Bundle of Books from Storybundle.com… I think this is an amazingly special bundle of holiday stories of all kinds and types. Perfect reading for this holiday season in so many ways. And one of the coolest things in this bundle is a book that explains the importances and contains all of The Santa Claus Stories by L. Frank Baum. Yes, the Wizard of OZ L. Frank Baum. With all his Santa Claus stories, he helped cement the images and traits we take for granted now for Santa Claus. And now, for the first time ever, they are gathered together and reprinted in one book, WITH ALL…

I Have Books In Three Bundles…
At The Same Time… This Never Happens… I am usually happy to be in a bundle every three months or so. So folks, if you want to get some amazing reading by other authors, and get four of my books, (And four of Kris’s books) now is the time to grab all three bundles. A couple of them are vanishing fairly soon, so don’t miss them. Here are descriptions and pictures and links of all three bundles.

Thanks for the Positive Comments
Glad The New Look Is A Good One… I sure like it and am working every day now to update all the information here. I will shout out in a month or so when I think I have most things updated. Amazing how far a web site can get behind when a person like me doesn’t much care about promotion of my own books. I just like writing them and putting them out. But now I figure if I can get this new look caught up, I have a better chance of keeping it caught up. One can dream, right? (grin) And speaking of my books, I have three collections…

Licensing… Oh, My…
Taking A Day Or Two Away From the Novel… I will be back on Monday talking about my regular routine, but for today and tomorrow I don’t want to have to push the book into a small place and time as I have been doing. I want to give it more time. So going to get a ton of workshop and business stuff done first, then focus on the run to the end of the book. But in the mean time, licensing… It has now been suggested that we all wear face masks when going out. Now that “suggestion” from medical folks doesn’t mean we should all go out and…

Card Sharp Silver… Day 10
Ups Need Downs… Today was a slight down instead of an expected up. Got a very late start for me and didn’t even get to the internet computer until 1:30 pm. Yes, I slept that late. I normally get out of bed at 10:30, didn’t make it this morning until noon. Had some lunch around 2:30 pm or so, then a little more email and got to the writing computer at 3:15 pm. By 4 pm I had just over 1,000 words done and went for a long walk with Kris. Then a nap. Then I cooked dinner and watched an episode of Picard, then back in here to do…

Well, you can get it exclusively right now through the Storybundle titled: CATS Along with some really amazing other books and collections featuring cats. Kris put this one together and it is flat amazing. And SIX of the ten books are exclusive to the bundle, including RING GAME. And yes, the magic of indie publishing had me finish a book and less than two weeks later it is on sale, exclusive to a major bundle. Love this new world. These bundles come…

Cave Creek Kickstarter
Only Three Days Left!!! We could use the help passing the word on this to hit the next stretch goal where all backers get another free book, plus a lecture of their choice worth $50. This campaign got caught, as many of us did, in this virus shutdown. But if everyone could pass the word in these last three days, that would be helpful and also get everyone some free books to read fairly quickly while they are stuck at home. So if you haven’t given this campaign a look yet, have no idea what book I am writing in my daily blogs (Cover above), check it out. And remember,…
