I've republished my books through Amazon, after severing my relationship with Lightning Source.
In addition to the 4 paperbacks and Kindles, all 4 books now have audio editions.

Believe me, I know. ere are plenty of real monsters walking around out there in the world. ey look respectable, but can’t hide who they are from me. Real monsters hurt people for pleasure, or for no reason at all—they’re just not as well armed as I am.”

My reading pace slowed tis past month, between entertaining guests, building and stocking a greenhouse,a and a myriad of other physical activities I've been mostly falling asleep from exhaustion before reading for a whileStill reading The Calling (Louise White), close to finishing and will report. I also added Wonder (R.J. Palacio) and The Devil's Backbone (written by James Babb, a fellow winner of an IPPY award for juvenile fiction). Also added some non-fiction, but I won't expound on this since Fiction Rules.
