Howdy from Alaska, and yes...it is already snowing
Yeah you read right, it is already snowing in Alaska. Even in the southern part of central Alaska, right here in Anchorage, the mountain tops are already covered. And the darkness is steadily encroaching on us. Within the next two months we will drop down to less than 6 hours of daylight max and it will stay that way till spring.

That is why I have had time to write three full length Military/Terrorism Thriller novels and numerous short stories. The novels are currently available as Ebooks via Kindle and Smashwords. They were all originally produced solely in free podcast audio format and are still available as such. After being downloaded by nearly 20,000 listeners I realized that they might be OK, and so I am now offering them in ebook format for readers and as commercial free CD audiobooks at my website www.basilsands.com.

Being new to this forum I don't know my way around yet, but do hope in the near future to meet a lot of folks and enjoy the company.

Hello, Basil, and welcome to MobileRead...

I have always been fascinated by Alaska, and it's on the top on my list to visit (that'll be after my mother passes on - until then my overseas trip are to Denmark)

I'm looking forward to reading your books.

Good to have your company from the Frozen North, Basil. I know it has its many, many great points, but give me the blue skies and sunshine here on the Mediterranean coast any time. Very best wishes. Neil

There is definitely a lot to be said for not being cold.

Welcome. I can't believe it's snowing already. And I"m complaining because it's only in the seventies today on the East Coast. I miss the heat. No wonder you can write so many books. Congratulations on your books and good luck.
