From 5/29-5/31 I am giving away free digital copies of IN LOVE AND WAR, before releasing the audio version at the beginning of July.  Also, I am planning to do at least one other audiobook in the not too distant future featuring my short fiction.  At the same time, I also am working on the novel A CONTRITE SPIRIT, and gathering marketing information for my novel.  I am not a marketing expert, but I have a small amount of money to devote to hiring a short term marketing assistant.

  My debut novel, IN LOVE AND WAR, is now in production as an Audiobook!!   Early in July, it will become available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes!     If you were interested in the concept of IN LOVE AND WAR, but prefer audiobooks, this just might be the right choice for you.   Also, in the next two days, May 2 and 3, digital copies of my previous collection of stories, SWIMMING AMONG THE OLYMPIANS, will be available for FREE! I am also working on a collection of New and Collected Stories, called FINE PEOPLE.   This book will be available soon.   By late 2021 or early 2022, A CONTRITE SPIRIT, will be published.    This is a sequel to the novella, UNDER OLD GLORY. In the future I hope to bring out audiobook editions of my other books.   I find the process exciting and exhilarating. Click here for free copy
