A Kindle book on iPhone
Thanks to JR, a fellow cyber author and publisher, I’ve come across another article about publishing and reading via Kindle, Sony, Blackberry, PC, and other electronic readers. Peter Svensson’s August 15 article Phones, PC’s put e-books within reach of Kindle-less focuses on the popularity of reading from paperless media and the technology that’s responsible for it. Only a few years ago, publishing for portable electronic readers and PC’s was a road less traveled. According to Svensson’s article, it’s hard to keep new e-books down; sales are beginning to climb. Intrepid entrepreneurs turn paper manuscripts into cybertext as quickly as the new software appears and just as importantly, readers are logging on in ever increasing numbers.
Now available in PDF and Kindle formats
The May issue of Light Sport and Ultralight Flying magazine carries a short synopsis and information about the PDF and Kindle versions of Flying Wires. Read the article here and either visit my web site to purchase the PDF or Amazon.com to purchase the Kindle version.

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.

In September 2007, I had the pleasure of attending the Gathering of Mustangs and Legends as a free lance writer for Light Sport and Ultralight Flying magazine. I probably saw Jack’s P-51 while we were there; however, I didn’t have a chance to meet Jack. For those who knew him or who are familiar with the war in which he fought, I honor his life by passing along this information. Fair skies, Jack!
