Anna Blue, 2nd in the series, available FREE starting August 22

Hullabaloo and Shenanigans!   Through the gracious hands of our overlords at Amazon, the second book in the "Found Nothing, Coming Home" series will be available at no cost!  Zero dollars and zero cents.  Of course, this engagement is only available for a limited time.  Be sure to pick up your copy on August 22nd and the following weekend.

If that's not enough for you, then both the series opener, Found Nothing, and the 3rd installment, For the Time Being, are also available in the Amazon Store, for the modest price of $0.99.

A summary follows.

Adrift in the ocean of self-wrought apathy, a siren calls the young man to shore.

Ron Collins finds himself as the product of misplaced ambitions and unjustified self-worth, and cannot summon the strength to acknowledge his failures. Yet, there is one thing in his life that is worthy of his efforts - the young mistress Anna Blue. Anna is a vibrant and volitile young woman, beautiful and confident in her disposition. Ron craves her attention and finds himself at her beckon, despite being regarded as her boyfriend. Anna, perhaps knowingly, keeps him at a persistent distance. In the meantime, Ron finds his friendships suffering, his energy waning, and his emotions dulling. Will he meet Anna again? Can she save him?

Anna Blue explores the expanding and evolving concept of relationships in young people; they who have technology as a buffer from intimacy, and also often come from less than ideal family circumstances.

August 8: One release, one free. Book-iesta!

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIBA!

In celebration of the release of Anna Blue, my other ebook, Found Nothing, will be free. Yes, FREE. On Amazon. But it is not a permanent arrangement. This is limited to August 8th and the subsequent weekend. so, get on it, peeps! Time's a wastin'!

Oh, and there is also my new ebook, Anna Blue. I'm somewhat proud of this one, as I've always had a degree of difficulty developing female characters. It was a fascinating exercise, and took no small amount of work before I was contented. So then, let's plug, shall we?

"Found Nothing" is the first story in the compilation Found Nothing, Coming Home. Within it, we meet Ron Collins - a superior personage with inferior prospects. As a young man struggling to come to terms with his failures, Ron looks to his on-again girlfriend, Anna, for support. Through the story, each of them finds that they are unable to cope with their own inflated expectations, which causes Ron to descend deeper into a denied yet stubborn self-loathing. Both intense and revealing, Found Nothing explores the emerging problem of being young, educated, and unsuccessful.

Future short stories in the series will be launched at a later date. For more information, please follow the author: @Goodjeg (www.twitter.com/goodjeg). Updates and alerts will be distributed regularly.

"Found Nothing," ebook, is now available on Amazon

It has been a fascinating and delirious trip to finally complete what is my first self-published ebook.  Fortunately, I have tempered myself with the advice of others, and therefore I am not one of those first-time authors who expects to become Hemingway overnight.  Although the story itself was a journey for me, the book here is just the first step.

But enough of these cliches.  They are hurting my soul.

The book is actually a short story, the first in a series of six (count 'em - six) short stories that will be released sometime in 2013.  If you would like to learn more (and why wouldn't you?), please point yourself to the "works" page of this little website.  Gee, thanks.

Also, the book can be found at: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E96S1P2

There are sure to be free giveaways, special deals, etc, in the near future.  So stay tuned.  Please.
