    My book is now for sale!



    http://www.lulu.com/content/2479595

    This is The Time Tourist which I posted as The Time Guardian.

    The story I now have in print is slightly different from the original. I edited and fine tuned it for print. Anyway here it is. If you feel charatable than feel free to buy a copy or buy two and give a copy to your mother this mother's day.

    I will be offering this for sale on Barnes and Noble as well as Amazon at a later time.

    Love always

    Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.

    PS

    Please excuse my shameless self promotion. This took me about two years to complete and I am very excited.

    Hardly, I am still an amature. But I did investigate this publishing thing thouroughly. You have to beware of bogus publishers (publishing mills, author mills etc). Its best to find a legitmate agent. Check the authors digest website if you are not sure. I ended up going to Lulu, a print on demand service (not the same as a publish on demand which is typically a bogus service). Lulu is good because they charge very little for their services and have a solid reputation.

    I'm impressed Tom. I'll have to give it a look.

    Sounds pretty cool... Just what I'd expect from you. I'll just have to buy one cause I know the author.

    Lets make this a sticky for a while.

    My daughter just read it and pointed out more typographic errors than I could shake a stick at. I went back and re-edited it.

    Bummer. You can't edit your own book, though, man. Even editors have someone else edit their books. Your brain will see what's supposed to be there. Hand your daughter a highlighter, then find one or two others who'll also edit for you. THEN make corrections.
