Edgar Swamp Hi Melissa,
I apologize for the delayed reply. Yes, Amber Hollow is available in paperback from Amazon. In fact, a contest on Goodreads for ten paperback copies just finished and I received the names of the winners today. I'll be making it available on my website www.edgarswamp.com very soon, in which it it will be discounted from the $11.99 I am charging to $9.99 plus shipping. Thank you so much for asking, take care!
Edgar Swamp I am presently reading Five Wishes by Mollie Moon, which is a departure for me as it is a YA novel, but the story is about human trafficking and I know the writer personally. I'll add it to my 'too read' list. Other than that, I'm not sure what I'll read this summer; too early to tell! Maybe one of Lance Carbunkle's many books, as they look interesting!

Edgar Swamp I am presently writing two books, one fiction, one non. The fiction novel is a psychological thriller about a man pushed to the brink by divorce and the lengths he goes to to take his hatred out on the world, committing terrorist acts. The non-fiction novel is about my pet sitting adventures in sunny San Diego, mostly humorous stories. Two polar opposites!
Edgar Swamp I love to write. I do it because I HAVE to. I am a natural story teller and it keeps me out of trouble. I won't elaborate on that.
Edgar Swamp The Supreme Court's 'Citizen's United' ruling and the 2012 presidential election. Also the rise in popularity of research chemicals, and my own mismanaged health issue with a doctor and subsequent collapse of my health insurance.
