Publishing

I've tried for many years to be a selling novelist and short-story writer without much success. I did manage, with the help of my mentor, Max Collins, to sell a couple of my first short stories. I had an agent who worked for the William Morris agency interested in my work once, but that fell through. For what reason, I don't know. Anyway, discovering that the Internet is a good place to self publish, I'm going to give it a try. After all , if you're an artist of any kind, you want people to see your work. So, I'm going to publish here my first complete novel, Chilpancingo. It attracted the agent I told you about. I think it's a fine story and have had another self-supporting writer tell me pretty much the same. I'm going to post the novel here with a button for donating whatever amount you feel the read is worth. You can read it for free and not donate a cent if you wish. Or you can donate to the level you feel you've been entertained. It's your choice. I just want you to read it. Click on the Chilpancingo link below in the right sidebar to go to the novel.

About me: my wife and I have lived in a school bus for the last 22 years. We wouldn't dream of any other kind of residence. Presently we are in Arkansas. I'm hoping to visit Mexico for a few months where maybe I can come up with another good story involving that wonderful country.

Enjoy the read.
