A Kindle book on iPhone
I’ve been asked to write an article for the Maryland Writers’ Association blog and newsletter “Pen in Hand” about my publishing experience with Amazon.com’s Kindle format. Apparently, I may be the first Association member who’s gone the Kindle route and my outline of the process would be helpful to other members. Once the article is posted, I’ll include a link to it in a post from this blog.

New links-Surf’s Up!
Saturday, March 21st, 2009If you’re looking for something at either the Chrysalis Publications, LLC web site or on the big WWW, check out the links in the column on the right side of this blog. In the past few days, I’ve added some new links that may help you find what you’re looking for. Happy surfing!
Words on the Wire
Friday, March 20th, 2009Interest in my column at Examiner.com has started growing. I’m receiving information from a couple volunteer organizations and I am now more aware than ever of how many people and organizations are volunteering in the Laurel, Maryland area. It’s heartwarming! Please visit – and subscribe – to the Laurel Community Volunteer Examiner. A lot of what is happening here is happening across our country. In addition to the articles, there is a growing list of local, regional and national organizations supported by volunteers.
Examiner.com
Tuesday, March 17th, 2009Have you ever wanted to combine work with something you really like to do? Some folks manage that easily, some struggle and others come upon it later in life. I fall into the latter category. I’m a free-lance writer for Examiner.com. The best way I can describe Examiner.com is that it’s a really BIG e-newspaper. Because the organization involves a lot of writers [Examiners], Examiner.com is an e-newspaper that goes far beyond what most newspapers cover in a daily paper. For example, have you ever heard of a Baby Boomer Examiner or a D.C. Technology Examiner? A Cleveland Sports Examiner or a SF Travel Tips Examiner? Writers from all over the country cover something that interests them. As you’ve already seen at this blog, I’m a very active volunteer in my community. Ta Da! I’m Examiner.com’s Laurel [Maryland] Community Volunteer Examiner! I found a way to not only write about the various volunteer opportunities that exist in Laurel, MD, but hopefully, I can encourage more people to become involved in helping their friends, neighbors, and other members of their community. If you’re in the neighborhood and you want to volunteer, check out my web site!
Flying Wires for Kindle and . . . iPhone
Saturday, March 14th, 2009Flying Wires is now available for download to your Kindle, Kindle 2 or iPhone [also iPod Touch]. That’s right. After a February announcement about Amazon.com’s Kindle 2, the e-books available for the Kindle products are now available for the iPhone. Perhaps Amazon.com is responding to the demand for the popular e-book format to be available on other media players besides the Kindle and Kindle 2. In this struggling economy, companies often fall back to the “whatever sells” game plan. For Kindle and Kindle for iPhone owners, take a sneak peak at Flying Wires. [See link for "Try it free."] Don’t have a Kindle or iPhone? Click here to see a sample from one of the chapters.

Spreading the Word
Thursday, March 12th, 2009My novel, Flying Wires, is mentioned in this week’s issue of the Howard County Times and Laurel Leader newspapers. In his column, John Hayes highlights the books published by four members of the Savage Writers’ Circle. The writers meet at the Savage, Maryland library on the second Monday of each month. John – also an accomplished writer – has had poems published and a couple of his plays performed. Read about these five writers’ accomplishments here.
