I’m amazed and in awe whenever I can chat or meet with somebody that can actually string together a presentable story in short or long story format. So Kudos to you. I would never hold that at fault.

So I see your dilemma then. You either slip a reference into a post that’s somewhat applicable with nary a word on it’s veracity, or you include the origination and nature of the work you get accused of being an ad troll on FR.

I don't care about that anymore. Plus, all of my short stuff is free, I just want it read. The short stuff is also collected in a Kindle anthology for convenience, but they are all also available gratis on the web.

If folks enjoy 1/4-million word novels, great, but most folks don't have time. Or they don't enjoy my writing style, I understand that. Hence my short stories and photo-memes. It's my attempt to reach more people.

Along with "What I saw at the coup," I hope that folks will read this one, if they read nothing else I've written:

Enough folks know Travis that accusing him of being a troll won't fly very far.
