Starting a new book-----nonfiction

I have started writing a book about growing up as an atheist---a fairly unique situation. I am still a non-believer in a deity and want to give my perspective and help dispel myths about atheists and provide background about what it was like to be in my position throughout life. I will post snippets as I write.

Sweet Reads book store

I just returned from Sweet Reads where we discussed my new book, The Devil's Kettle. We had a real nice turnout on a warm, sunny day. (I'm surprised so many people decided to come and discuss my book rather than enjoy the great outdoors).
Besides a great discussion, we enjoyed cookies, coffee and pretzels. It was a great time.
So many thanks to Lisa Deyo, owner of Sweet Reads who has been so accommodating to our local Minnesota authors.  Thanks again, Lisa!!

Up and Running

The Devil's Kettle is now available on amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. I hope to have it available on Kobo soon, but there seem to be some technical difficulties in converting the manuscript into an ePub on the Kobo platform. The paperback should be ready in a about three weeks or shorter, I hope.

Right now, I'm traveling in the southwest around Flagstaff and Sedona, Arizona. Later, I hope to wrap up a couple of downhill skiing days in Winter Park and then head home.

Thanks!

My thanks to Ricki Walters, www.rlweditorial.com. who finished editing, The Devil's Kettle, and the writers group that I am a member of. All involved have given me a lot of valuable feedback that I have incorporated into the book.
I am also grateful to the folks at Outskirtspress involved in production, cover design, interior design, and marketing.
The paperback will be available in 8-10 weeks. I hope sooner for the ebook version.

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.
