Books

Once upon a time…

I wanted to write science fiction. In fact, I wrote a fair bit of it over the years. The lack of sales forced me to admit that I’m not that good. Even so, when I had the books available as free downloads a few years ago, I was seeing a couple thousand downloads a month. I was hit with extra bandwidth charges by my service provider which I was hard pressed to pay. I shut that site down.

I’ve had polite inquiries about my books, so I decided to make them available once more. Enjoy them, and consider showing your appreciation with a buck or two in my tip jar

Thank you.

Just to be different, I’ve written on subjects other than SF. Here’s a craft-type article I wrote a few years ago.
