This is some really good Sh-t
Read it even if you have to pay for the book

Why thank you Fletcher, I'm really tickled!
What this probably means is that you are either a) very easily amused or b) desperate for a little entertainment but then I am too.

Hey Ole,
I think that skull on your cover is scaring everybody off. Yeah, I know, everybody's got one but that's just not a good way to get people to identify with your book. You may be a good writer but ya don't know squat about marketing. :-)
I like the original plain cover. Case in point ......
Just sayin' .......

Terry From Toronto thanks for the comment. If you see the skull on the front cover as frightening then don't turn the book over to my bio pic. You'll toss it in the trash for sure!
Hey I enjoyed your latest Mexico blog and I am tickled to have had the opportunity to share what I love about Mexico with you. And all the rest of *my* gringos too of course. Clearly, I am still trying to take gringos flying in Mexico, in mind and spirit if not body.

Hope to see you there next season.

My writing coach claims that we must yearn for rejection, that it will make us better writers. I have just come from my Smashwords account with a fresh dose of rejection. What I found is that while about 75 people apparently downloaded my freebie, not one of them sprung the 99¢ for another volume. Howz that for rejection?
John Steinbeck claimed that the poorer he was the more he wrote. He said that his literary output had an inverse relationship with his finances. I never did much care for Steinbeck.
Anyway, I hope you guys are busy writing your own thrilling novels. I want to be the first to BUY them.

FYI your link on the smashwords site has been a link to a "found: 0 results" page since the day you posted it. Anyone visiting the page needs to know to turn off the adult filter to see it.
