About the Book

What’s all this then?

Well, simply put, this site is about the book that I began writing for fun back in December 2007. It was originally meant to be a short story, but as I went, I kept coming up with more ideas, and it ballooned into a full novel. This site is where I’ve shared it with the world. Since then, I’ve decided to write a sequel, and have begun the process.

Share it on the Internet? Why? Get published!

As previously mentioned, it was written just for fun. I had always wanted to write a novel, and so I did. Since I have some skills in interior publication layout, I set it all out, generated a PDF, put it out to a print on demand company, and away I went.

Just giving it away? Foolhardy!

Since this is the first book I ever wrote, I just wanted to share it with as many people as possible. It is freely available as a PDF book that anyone can download and read. However, there is also a paperback version, a Kindle version, etc. that one can get if eBooks aren’t quite your thing. As I look back, I don’t have any regrets. The experience has taught me a lot about Indie Publishing, my writing ability, and countless other things. Additionally, I have started work on a sequel that is leaps and bounds better than my first writing attempt. My hope is that people who have read the first book and enjoyed it would consider buying the sequel.
