Two books available...soon!

I think I've finally sorted out the problem with the postings from this blog being fed to Bleacher Report automatically.

So, no more such problems, I'm happy to say.

But in the meantime, some news out of my books. "Sweet Voice of Innocence" will be available in mid-June, though an e-book version of this is now available on http://www.cacoethespublishing.net/. It has been featured as one of the new books this month! Yay!

"False Ex-pectations" will come out a month after "Sweet Voice of Innocence", but as you can see, the cover has been done.

Great work by the graphic designers! Kudos!

Finally, KP Wee has his name on a couple of books. Mission accomplished!

With RJ out of the picture...

I'm the lead writer on OA! =)

No, seriously, I haven't had time to write on here or on Bleacher, for that matter! I've been spending more time on my manuscript instead... I've decided to use the words "Rainbow Trout" in my third ms.

We'll see how that goes!

And I must say, I was hugely impressed with the work of the graphic designer on the cover of my first manuscript. That one hit the ball way out of the park--to use a baseball reference!

(Haha, that was also the quote Alex used on Apprentice III when talking about the plexi-glass table that he and Bren came up with in the Staples project. Seemed like *I* was the only one amongst everyone I knew, that liked the product.)

In the meantime, I did post on www.overanything.com, so that'll hopefully stay there till RJ comes back!

Eat your heart out, Trout...

Eat your heart out, Trout!

I'm on Amazon!!

Land of Opportunity

On Saturday, I attended a workshop and got an interesting perspective from the instructor.

No, it had nothing to do with the workshop content, but rather about Canada.

The instructor contended that she was appreciative of immigrating here (from England) because it gave her so many opportunities. Granted, she would be the first to admit that she'd come in a totally different era, but nonetheless, she claimed that you could do whatever you wanted in Canada if you had a goal and strived for it.

I would be one who agreed with that kind of sentiment, which is why I refuse to listen to sob stories that people tend to offer up. I mean, if you worked hard, you could be successful in life. So every time someone tries to be negative or complain excessively, I don't really sympathize with him or her.

Oh, say, this non-story, for example, that made headlines in Canada this past week. Seriously, am I supposed to feel sorry for the individual?

Don't know what the house mates on the zonk think, but that's just my two cents.
