I have a new book out, a real romance, and a fairly modern Western flavor. Hope you like it. I personally, have always been a fan of Westerns. I like the small town atmosphere and the countryside as a backdrop.

Book Review

The Secrets to E-book Publishing Success.

(How to Reach More Readers with Your Words

By Mark Coker

This 35,581 word publication is free.

* * *

     This is a detailed, comprehensive book which reveals to writers, authors, publishers, and literary agents, much sought after jewels hidden from most people searching for the answer to this type of success. Thanks to Mark Coker's book, a clear map is lined out showing the twenty-five best practices for writing and publishing.

    Other works by Coker include: Smash words Style guide; Smashwords Book Marketing guide; The 10-minute PR Check list, and Boob Tube.

      Mark Coker, founder of Smashwords, has been asked to tell something about this subject many times in conferences and seminars throughout the world. And why not?  Smashwords is the largest distributor of self published e-books in the world.  Embracing 40,000 authors' works which are represented in 100,000 books (and growing), this is an on-going, day to day example of tremendous e-book success.

      The secrets have been gleaned from the best practices of the most commercially successful authors at Smashwords.

     I personally like the common sense, honest, and yet thoughtfully detailed, and very modest valuable advice book this book truly is.

      Many Smashwords authors have landed in the top ten bestseller lists of major e-book retailers. Mark explains in his book, and notes that some also are new New York Times e-book bestsellers.

      I, myself, a novice in all things publishing, nonetheless, applaud this latest effort of Mark Coker to explain these very difficult concepts. I was very excited as I started reading this, realizing, for me it is a jewel which I am very glad I found. I think it is a how-to manual which I will keep easily accessible like I did the style guides I kept on my desk while trying to work my way through the college essay classes of my past.

Thanks Mark Coker for this timely how to book on writing and publishing. Something wonderful shall surely come of this sharing project of yours.

Thinking of Easter time

This beautiful Spring time makes me think of Easter.

I so love Spring!


     The weather here has turned very beautiful. The flowering trees have gone into full bloom and there is beauty everywhere.
     Some rain is expected, but the temperatures have made all of us shed our coats and sweaters.
It is wonderful to feel that Winter is indeed over.

      Spring is a time filled with promise. I am busy at work on completing a book and hope to finish it by sometime in April.
       Meanwhile, I just love the weather.

HIGHLIGHTING TWO BOOKS

Talking about Space and Space Ship exploration

Many people have all sorts of ideas about the endless possibilities beyond the narrow vision which we have on this planet called Earth. I, myself, like to think what if there were worlds and countries and civilizations way beyond our own home and out there somewhere.

So yes, I became a science fiction-fantasy writer.

This month I am sharing something here about two of my books which are currently published through Smashwords.

The Dead End Survival Project, was published in November of last year. It was written by that extraordinary writer's program called the NaNOWriMo. By finishing this 50,000 plus novel in a month, it became one of the winners.

I love this book and wrote it in the contest under the pen name Evangeline Cobalt. I now have a newspaper which runs on the Internet called The Evangeline Cobalt Weekly, but actually this changes content every day.

But the Dead End Survival Project called me away from my favorite hobbies of painting and cooking, and at the end I had a book I love.

I tell the story of Lance Cabot, a man who is leading a team of an old fashioned space ship, the Thunderbolt 5. They plan to try to rescue a woman captured and taken hostage, called a Visionary.

WHEN SHADOWS FALL was published in June of last year. Ezecruis is a man of magic and his trip is one of savagery and mystery.

To me the subject of space is always exciting and I invite people to try these two books out this month.

These will be part of the Smashwords

New Cookbook Announcement

I would like to share our newly published book's arrival.

Check it out at Smashwords.

This is the second cookbook I have written which shows simple and economical ways of cooking. My Parents taught me a lot about The Great Depression and living simply. I have been cooking all of my life and would like to share some of my great ways to cook and save money at the same time.

The Great Depression taught people some hard lessons and the recent economic woes are doing the same.
