I need to make a few quick book announcements.
First, my book “Sold Out” is finally available in paper form. If you’re not into E-readers or E-books, then you can now order it from Amazon in paperback from here.
Second, I wanted to thank everyone for helping me make both my books successful. As you know, this is impossible to do alone, so I appreciate all the help from everyone. Your encouragement, your reviews, your word of mouth to others — all of it is helping tons, and I appreciate each and every one of you. (How crazy is this? I’ve even made my first sales in Germany and on Sony, which I had even forgotten my distributor was listing it at. All very exciting, and I can’t say enough about how great you all are.)
That’s it from here. Hope everyone has a great night, and an even better week! Push hard and focus on your goals. You’re worth it!

P.S. Please accept the greatest gift I can give.
P.P.S. Thanks to all who continue to make my novels a success. I seriously couldn’t have done it with everyone’s support. I’m excited to say that Little Man, and the Dixon County War has gone as high as No. 16 on the Amazon UK Paid List (see here and here). My second novel, Sold Out, has also done well, also, going as high as No. 81 on the Amazon Paid List for the category of War (see here and here). Learn more about both books here.
Glad to hear things are going so well for you Stan. I wish you continued luck on getting your books out there with the readers!
Thanks, Phillip. I appreciate all your encouragement and obviously the purchases and reviews. Danah asked me the other day — as I mentioned for the millionth time some of my friends I’ve met through my blog — if I knew any of them well enough to actually meet them someday.
I told her absolutely, and that furthermore, I thought there were a few I could even ask for a room if we were ever broke and stranded near their cities.
When I said that, you were at the top of the list with a few others. I’m glad I met you somehow through this mysterious web, and I can’t wait to watch how far you climb with your career.
You’re welcome Stan and the kind words are greatly appreciated. I’m really glad I decided to jump into this blog thing because I’ve met some great people such as yourself. People that have gone through (or currently going through) what I’m currently going through as writer and can share all the pain and joy along the way.
Should you ever find yourself in Southern California and in need of a room, you bet we’ll make a place for you guys.
Yeah, I’ve seen through following your blog that you’ve found some super loyal friends yourself. And it is so nice to have found others traveling the same road. And it goes without saying, but if you ever find yourself dropping through East Tennessee, give me a shout!
Just ordered!
Thanks, EF. You rock, and I hope you really enjoy it! (Most are saying they like it better than the first book.)
And now that the election is over, are you getting any closer to re-tackling your book?
Getting closer, but not quite there yet.
That’s great news. And remember that Eastern thinking — any forward movement is still forward movement, and should be celebrated, not judged harshly (as we do in Western society).
Excellent point, I will remember that when I’m scolding myself.
