My consistent readers,
Both of you, JUST KIDDING.
I’m posting a review of the anthology, Curious Hearts, submitted to GOODREADS.
Read from September 13 to 20, 2011
Anthologies are interesting. You get a wide range of stories and styles. Curious Hearts was no exception. Seven authors contributed to the collection, with a common theme of tough choices involving love. Within the pages were tales of time-travel, space travel, the draw toward old lovers, experimenting with new love, and a near-death experience.
Each story showcased the author’s unique voice. I particularly enjoyed that some of them didn’t end quite the way you’d expect. The choices that had to be made were gut-wrenching at times. There was also a good share of humor in several of these.
Some of the best unexpected twists and humor were found in Jane Carver’s “A-mazing Shift”, Walt Trizna’s “Elmo’s Sojourn”, and Jenny Twist’s “Doppelganger”. But, you’ll have to read it yourself if you want to pick your own favorites.
Because of some very explicit sexual content in the stories “Mission to Doom” and “Bi-Curious Wife”, I recommend this book for adults only

My consistent readers,
Those with Kindles and Nooks, here’s another opportunity to read one of my stories, The Crystals of Life published by Books To Go Now.
I hope you buy it (it is really cheap), and enjoy it, please let me know. If you don’t enjoy it, let me know why. I have a writer’s ego, able to compliments and criticism.

My readers,
I know some of you have read my poem about 9/11. This is certainly a rough day for us all, but we are strong. This unexpected evil has happened to our country twice. It could someday happen again. Never forget who you are and what built this nation.

Folks, get those Nooks and Kindles ready, very soon I’ll have another eBook for you to read, well actually, it’s a new eStory.
Books to Go Now will be publishing The Crystals of Life. I’m going over the final edits now and will soon have them back into the hands of the publisher.
Here’s a hint: Martian samples; USE EXTREME CAUTION.
I bet you can’t wait. I’ll let you know when it’s available for your horrifying enjoyment.

My consistent readers,
Just wanted to let you know that Chester County Book & Music Company will be selling Curious Hearts, an anthology in which I have a novella, Elmo’s Sojourn.
Elmo is a retired scientist who putters around in his cellar, and accidently discovers how to time travel though wormholes. He journeys to a distant planet where he helps with a scourge that is plaguing the residents.
I also have had some positive results with my effort to publish my novel, The Beast Awaits. Nothing firm yet; I’ll keep you posted.

My consistent readers,
A BIG THANKS.
I just received a royalties check from Books To Go Now.
Buying my beach house is still on the pilot light, and we have an electric stove, but at this point in my career, the important thing to me is that people are reading my work.
Last quarter, three people bought my story, Martian Rebirth. Fourteen bought Unholy Ground.
I first want to once again say thanks. I would also ask you, if you don’t mind, to post a comment on amazon.com. A comment would be appreciated whether you liked my stories or not. Writing is a lonely experience, and feedback is important.
Walt

My consistent readers,
I would like to ask a favor of those of you who would like to read my work for free.
Go to your library and ask them to order New Moon Rising in paperback. If you do that, you and others can have a free read. I have already donated a copy to my local library.
At this point in my writing career what I feel is most important is that people read my work.
Also, you can ask libraries to order my story, Martian Rebirth, as an eBook. It is available to libraries through OverDrive. Soon more of my stories will also be available to libraries using this website.
Thanks,
Walt
