Ancestors were homesteaders in MT migrated from MO, and SC in the late 1800s, grew up in Northern MN.

Ancestors fought in every war since the revolution.

Looks like I will be getting buried in East Idaho where I live now. Payette.

God bless you and yours, and have a great Christmas Season.

Well maybe we should, because now that I wrote my first, I have started working on another, and I plan on writing till I can’t write anymore.

I am on your ping list, but I do not recall saying anything inspiring. There is a feeling of accomplishment, though. I was a professional magazine writer in my college days, but nothing other than advertising copy, letters to the editor, and comic strip content since then. I did have a short attempt at being a publisher, and have done some editing, but no long form writing. Good for you for sticking to something that comes easily for few who practice it well (Rex Stout and P.G. Wodehouse are among those few).

I lurked for a number of years too. I’ve had people call me on things I said I remembered that were before my mint date.

At first it bothered me. That was long ago.

Heartiest congratulations! Can I say that’s a hella lot of work for a book about Scripture?

This appears to be a physical book. Have you (or your publisher) considered making this into an ebook? Maybe after physical sales die down? Or before? I’ve only cursorily examined the ebook world, so I am not offering advice and your publisher might hate the idea; just pointing out the idea as I’m working on a book I’d publish in ebook form. My understanding is that about 7/10 of AMZNs’ bestseller book sales are ebooks, there are vast numbers going on in that space.

I have both a paperback and an e-book available.

So yes, that was the first thing I did after I published it. So it’s available in both forms.

Thanks for the inquiry.

Quite the contrary. Glad to be pinged. And if in some small way I helped, then I am thrilled.

Dear Humble gunner,

I started with FR back in the days of DITHF.

My computer crapped out and I forgot my password, so I created a new account.

Not surprising that someone would have a different start date.
