"STORIES THAT RHYME AND SOMETIMES AMUSE"
.
--------------- Now it's time for a "Teaser Alert". On my collections page, I am posting a excerpt from one of the new stories in my book, "The Edsel". .......................................... And speaking of "Teasers", I was very pleased when I was asked by a major educational book publisher if they could include my poem "The Old Cowboy's Ranch" in a book they're bringing out for the schools across Canada, about each province and territory, and my poem will be used in the book about Alberta Thank you! |
My Second Book is at the Printers!!!
A little twist on the title, it is called "Stories That Amuse and Sometimes Rhyme" I've used the same cover graphics, but with a different colour, blue and green tints. It Pops. Similar stories as my first book, but also with four short stories, or memoirs, that I hope you will find entertaining and amusing. The new book will e out near end of May, and as before, the ordering information is all shown below. ENJOY ! WOW--Who would have thought I would be having a second printing of my book! I had 300 copies printed with my initial order, and I wasn't sure if I would end up with a couple boxes of "spare table legs", or would they sell over time. I never really expected all 300 to sell in only 9 or 10 months. What has been most gratifying to me, are the number of you that have came back to purchase additional copies for friends and family. A lot of times, people will buy a book to be polite, or out of curiosity; however, when so many have re-ordered books for others, that tells me they have enjoyed the read and want to share it with friends. That tells me I've done something right. Thank you! Last fall I told you about my poem, "A Ravens View" being chosen for publication in the Legion's "Military Service Remembrance Book", well to inflate my bubble a little more, they have also chosen another Veterans related poem of mine, titled "Heroes" to be printed in the 2019 edition of their book. |
