I Read My First eBook

Are they even called that anymore? I have always read books in their paper form, saving digital media for social media, how-to's, recipes, and exploring my personal wonder - by that, I mean Wikipedia. I have been through seven long years of college and have amassed over 70 books during that time all related to the readings of coursework. I don't even remember what class mandated that I read The Jungle or God Gave Us Reason -- Not Religion . But they did, and instead of just renting them, I bought a fresh copy, right off Amazon's Click-to-Print presses. My collection of college-mandated books also includes lucrative reads like Organic Chemistry 3rd Edition and Modern Inventing 6th Edition .  I know, these two are at the top of Amazon Best Sellers list. In fact, instead of paying $680 for Organic Chemistry like I did, you can get this exact edition for just $30! What a bargain! I mean, who knows when I may need to reference the chemistry vices circa 2013? My first ...

eBook stubs for Beneath the Whispering Pines

 I had only read my first eBook several years ago, in fact, I blogged about it. Beneath the Whispering Pines went live abruptly this past Tuesday, September 25, 2023. Sales have been way above expectation, but it was namely because anticipation only had one option: buy the paperback.  For whatever reason, the eBook lagged far behind in production and only went live yesterday, which has had several purchases on the Balboa Bookstore moreso than Amazon, in fact, the book is now trending on Balboa thanks in part to them including the sales of eBooks as equitable to paperback.  Not all booksellers do this, however. In fact, Amazon doesn't count eBooks towards rankings of books on their websites. I am not sure why, the Kindle helped usher in the trend of eBooks, notably the Paperwhite Kindle series. Is it that eBooks are subpar? When reading my eBooks (I have a handful), I enjoy being able to find things, like when using my trust Abs Diet Recipe book, I can skip the fluff that ...

Beneath the Whispering Pines

 Beneath the Whispering Pines is finally launching.  The journey.... I started writing the book way back in 2015, when writing The Chronicles of a 21st Century Coal Miner, I wrote a short called "Masks To Hide Your Chagrin", a story about me and a belated friend, Julia, that was entirely unrelated to the Chronicles manuscript. With time, several small stories from my childhood compiled much like Chronicles had been the many small stories of my time as a coal miner.  In 2016, I picked up an agent to help peddle Chronicles , which was fraught with rejections due to marketability from a coal miner story, despite the 2016 Presidential Election really pushing coal's return to mainstream by then-candidate Donald Trump. I grew frustrated with the lack of securing a book deal and moved Chronicles to self publishing, after talking with Dorrance, Balboa, and Xlibris, among others, in the self-publishing business. Ultimately I went with Balboa, due to the fact I had actually see...
