Edit

I received the edit back and am going through it now. A few days of reviewing it and considering changes and I'll send it off to the publisher for interior design. Getting closer to the finish line!

I just added my blogs to my Author Central page on Amazon. If you are perusing my books please visit my author page.

Recently visited with John Haymond and Curt Rude, authors and members of the writers group I belong to. Cracked back a few brews before getting together with the rest of the group and evaluating work of other members.

A face shot from my camera of the front cover of my latest book.

I hope to be publishing the edited copy by mid-March in e-book and paperback form. It will be available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Kindle and Nook copies.

First time ever!

I have uploaded my manuscript to the Nook and expect to publish there when I'm ready. Their site needs getting used to and isn't as intuitive as Createspace or KDP, but I eventually figured things out. It's another option in the independent author's arsenal of sales and marketing.
I also sent out half a dozen queries to agents last week and haven't heard anything back from them. The previous week I heard from one agent who said he thought my project was strong, but, he still didn't think it was for him. Oh well!
I am up to a dozen rejections now, so am feeling like a REAL author.

Here is the back cover copy of my new book, The Devil's Kettle.

Three missing persons cases over a two-year period collide in this novel.  The most recent person gone missing, Seth Tryton, has friends in low places that won’t let the case stand as is. Placing his freedom in peril, fugitive from the law, Gerald Hodges, returns to Minnesota to help find out what happened, A couple of associates accompany him as they roam the streets of Duluth and travel the North Shore in search of clues to his disappearance.

They discover that Peter Karonen, a local man living in the small town of Finland may hold the key to all three disappearances.   He is a man who has lost everything important in his life—his wife to cancer, and a daughter mired in a persistent vegetative state. His dark journey leads him on a collision course with Gerald Hodges and his crew. Complicating matters, the local police discover that Hodges is in the vicinity and pursue him with vigor. Hodges must not only find his friend, but dodge the police in the process.
