Question and Answers

I enjoyed presenting Confessions as a question and answer type of document. I am the one who is asking the questions, of course, if anyone wanted to know. The ideas was to question my playoff format from a hard core college football fan's point of view. I hope I hit on a lot of points. I am passionate in my belief that the NCAA came up short of giving fans a TRUE playoff. Is it better than the BCS we are living behind? Of course it is, but an improvement for the sake of improvement isn't enough. I thought the organization should have worked harder to get it RIGHT. 

Promotional Peorid

Both of my works: Confessions of an Angry Sports Fan and Waiting are available for free download today and tomorrow on Amazon.com. This is a wonderful opportunity for readers to see if they enjoy my writing style in both a non-fiction and fiction format. Confessions is my first stab at the world of non fiction. I LOVE sports so expressing my opinion on various sporting subjects makes sense.

I did want it to be a little diferent. And writing it as a normal article, essay, or the like just felt STALE. So that is the reason for the confrontational question and answer session with a fictional questionare. I felt the questions and challenges to my plan were fair. I think I will use this format again. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Waiting

Waiting will also be running the promo simataneiously with my newest upload for 48 hours also. These will be the FINAL free offerings for Waiting. Enjoy. 

Confessions of an angry sports fan: Volume 1

My new Ebook article will be posted on Amazon.com within the next 12 hours. I had uploaded a copy late yesterday but tinkered with the blurb and the cover. I will be offering it free for a two day period. I would love to hear some feedback.

This is the ebook with my take on a TRUE college football playoff. It weighs in at nearly 13,000 words, and I'm pleased with how it has turned out. I present it as if it were a question and answer
session with a college football grilling me on my opinions about the coming playoffs and what I would have done different.

It was a lot of work, but I had a blast doing it. Enjoy!

Second Draft is coming along

I'll be completing the NCAA second draft by tomorrow. I'm hopeful that the formatting doesn't put it on me and I will have this puppy ready to upload by this time tomorrow.

Finished 2nd draft

I feel great. With the back matter NCAA came in at over 10,000 words and I really like it. I will make all the effort I can to edit this piece over the weekend, format it and design a cover for it Monday and have it up and published by Tuesday morning.

Monday WILL be busy as I place that cover over my advertising sites using Backpages for the first time as well.

Dang, time to get ready for the JOB.

New pics tomorrow?

There may not be an act in the world I hate more in the world than taking pictures. Yet, me and the boy and the camera will be here, so why not present or more friendlier face than the one posted right now.
