Just realized I haven't yet posted in the new year, so here goes ( Read more... )

Figure I'll try to get one more post in for the year!  Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas, and I wish you a Happy New Year ( Read more... )

As most know, I write what most people call Age of Sail/Naval Adventure stories, although my are unique in having a slight Science Fiction touch.  It should be obvious that I also enjoy reading stories of a similar nature, including the Hornblower tales by C.

So a day or two after my last post, I went to upload the Kindle version of the second edition of Beyond the Ocean's Edge: A Stone Island Sea Story.  The process of doing so went well, but later I discovered it was "blocked."  They said it wasn't different enough from the earlier version to publish.  ( Read more... )
