Goals watchlist: 3 blog posts. Stories cycled to market as soon as markets were available. “The Voices” eBook released on time last week. I made comments the requisite number of blogs (just barely.)

Meandering Monday about a Fantasy about Men and Women
So I’m on book four of Robert Jordan’s The Wheel of Time Series (The Shadow Rising.) At first, I chose it because what I’d heard of it came across as Epic Fantasy, with the crown passing (at least in one reviewer’s opinion) from J.R.R.Tolkien to Jordan.

Meandering Monday about a Different Kind of Remoteness
It is amazing how different technology makes things. Imagine that you lived when travelling from Europe to the NEW WORLD meant leaving everything and everyone you had known behind. After months of travel you arrive and begin taming your relatively unknown new home. And yet, we believe that people / neighbors / families were closer … Continue reading

I’ve ordered the proof for the paperback version on Createspace, and once it’s arrived and I’ve had a chance to check it over, it will also be available (but apparently through Amazon … Continue reading
