NatCh and Bob Russell,
Hey guys, I missed the update on this thread, so I didn't see your questions about the Jack Banen books! Sorry! It's a character I created inspired by all the fun I had reading the old John Carter of Mars and Doc Savage books after I discovered e-books. I sorta "tricked" my son into reading more by writing some action stories that would interest him. I would bounce ideas off of him and then write some short stories; so naturally the curiosity got him to read more.
Anyway, some friends found out, they read the books and liked them. Then it just sort of became a real project. The downside is that I have some fun story ideas and enjoy the writing but I have very poor grammar skills!! I'm taking some writing classes at a local community college and learning what I should have learned long ago in high school.
I plan to have them be free e-books and just good old-fashioned fun reads. I'm working on a website with Jack Banen character info, artwork and various related items. I'm an artist, so I have already done the artwork for the book covers and everything as I'm learning to writing better. So thank you so much for your comments on my avatar pic, I wanted a retro sci-fi/action hero kinda vibe thing.
Ok, so long story made shorter: Stories are written, but they're in the process of being cleaned up and edited. Artwork has been designed because I am inpatient and enjoy doing the paintings and book covers. Website has been registered and I'm working on the design. It'll all be free and promoted in the spirit of enjoying ebooks and of course, I'll have them all formated in the different ebook formats as well as RTF and TXT.
Sorry to all for reading my long off-topic post, but I didn't want anyone to think I was ignoring them.
