Nightrider's Lament

"Why do they [write] for their money? Why do they [work] for short pay? They ain't getting nowhere and they're losing their share. They must have gone crazy back there." — Michael Burton (paraphrased)

Please Buy My Novels Out of Thin Air

On March 17, 2016 By wastedpilgrimIn Books3 Comments

My new novel, Forgive Us Our Trespasses, goes on sale at Amazon.com on March 29. To my friends who cling to their tightly packed paper, I apologize because the new novel, like the last one, will be unavailable in print, at least for now. I'd like to sell paper novels. I own the rights to …

Grab a Novel, Don’t Cost Nothing

On October 2, 2015July 24, 2016 By wastedpilgrimIn Books2 Comments

It's not raining now. Well, maybe a mist. It's been raining. Last night it was heavy when I was driving home from Spartanburg. It's going to rain some more. A lot more. On The Weather Channel, it looks like a wall of fire is coming through South Carolina on Saturday. Any old rain is light …

Download and Let the Good Times Roll

On September 16, 2015 By wastedpilgrimIn BooksLeave a comment

  This isn't the first time I've tried to let you know you can read my new novel, Crazy of Natural Causes, without owning a Kindle. Before Crazy was selected as a KindleScout winner, I wasn't knowledgeable, either. All three of my novels, and several of my non-fiction books, are available in a Kindle version, …

So You Like ‘Real’ Books, Huh?

On August 30, 2015 By wastedpilgrimIn BooksLeave a comment

  My novel, Crazy of Natural Causes, has been out for almost six weeks now. It's gotten a good response. The sales have been decent, particularly since it remains available as a Kindle ebook only. It only costs $3.49. You can download free apps that allow you to read it on a wide variety of …

From Me to You on My Crazy Novel

On July 24, 2015 By wastedpilgrimIn BooksLeave a comment

Friends, countrymen and countrywomen, city folks, cowboys and Indians, readers frequent and infrequent, As you know, I've written another novel. It's good because, right out of Amazon (the retailer, not the river, but the two could be related by marriage), and into my portable devices, I read it. It took just slightly over one day, …

Potential Locations Abound!

On July 22, 2015 By wastedpilgrimIn BooksLeave a comment

As I have mentioned before, for obvious reasons, you don't have to own a Kindle to read my Kindle Publishing novel, Crazy of Natural Causes. I don't own a Kindle myself, but I have free apps installed in my Surface tablet, two iPhones, and an iPod. Here's what I didn't know till today, mainly because …

Do Me a Favor and Don’t Keep This a Secret

On July 20, 2015 By wastedpilgrimIn HumorLeave a comment

As the song goes, I ain't too proud to beg. My novel, Crazy of Natural Causes, will be released on Tuesday, July 21. As these words are written, that's several hours away. No matter how hard I try, I can't possibly reach enough people to make it a success by that means alone. I've got …

Submitted Once More for Your Consideration

On June 30, 2015 By wastedpilgrimIn BooksLeave a comment

Ahhhh. Next week my third novel, Crazy of Natural Causes, is scheduled to go on sale for advance orders. It will be available, uh, "on demand," about two weeks later. The release of a book is exciting. It's the culmination of lots of work: drafts, outlines, rewriting, tinkering with the order, et al. Now I …

Horses in Disguise

On June 13, 2015 By wastedpilgrimIn WritingLeave a comment

I tried to think stimulating thoughts and come up with something profound, but, so far, all I’ve come up with is “you say potato, I say po-tah-to” and “what’s good for the Michigoose is good for the Michigander,” which probably has something to do with the NASCAR race being there. In other words, I got …
