OK – I admit that these books are self-published, but it still gives me a thrill to think that I have managed to put them together and that they can sit on my bookshelf as evidence that I can actually string a few sentences together!
I belong to a writers’ group called the Hinckley Scribblers, and the stories in these books were all written for “Scribblers” sessions. I simply put some of these together (more than 80 in total) and made two books out of them.
The “Shakespeare” volume is so named because I have used the characters of Shakespeare plays as inspiration for some of my stories.
Another reason for doing this was so that I could offer the books for sale at the library that I help to run. Whether they raise much cash remains to be seen, but every little helps!
There is nothing finer than having your name on the spine of a book. Congratulations!! That is impressive!!!
Thanks! I have had a book published by a “real” publisher, but that was an index to a 30-set run of journals devoted to Charles Dickens – not exactly a runaway best-seller!
i have had several technical books published. it is a great moment regardless!!!
Congratulations! It is wonderful to see you own writings in print.
You did it. Not all can even though they could be great writers. Congrats.
Congratulations. It’s a joy to see once work in print. The little is better than none.
