The ‘double top secret’ project from my post of a few days ago, ‘Holy Crap!’, is now completed and can be revealed. So without further ado, except for the obligatory drum roll, here it is.
It is available here:
I have been working on a small collection of poems, a humble effort that I have now published on amazon. Most of you that have been following this blog for a while will not be surprised to know that the entire collection is dedicated to the love of my life, Ionia, the inspiration in all I do. This includes a personal message for her, and this book is my version of shouting my love for her from the treetops. The poems are all based on love and separation, as you could have no doubt guessed.
I would also like to have a blog tour (some time in December) to publicise the release of this, my first, but hopefully not last, published work. If you would like to sign up and help me out with the blog tour please let me know in the comments.

Of course I am happy to help promote your collection. And I’ve already downloaded it to my kindle ☺️

Thank you so very much, Pam.; That was an incredible review. It is not often a review can bring tears to the eyes.

Bought it. Though I’m not sure how one would review a book that has such a personal touch to it. Might be happy that Amazon got rid of that 20 word minimum. I’ll help with the blog tour.

Yeah. This one also reads very personal. Good structure throughout so far.

Excitedly impatient. I love it. Definitely an eternal declaration of my love.

What if people want a sequel?

I am sure I can find a way to declare my eternal, undying love in poetic form for all manner of events. There is always the wedding for starters, the green card, a whole raft of possibilities. Not that it was intended as a series book.

A series of poems on getting a green card? That would certainly stand out and garner some interesting reviews.

Well there’s an idea. Not necessarily something one would want to publish before getting it though, if there are difficulties along the way.

I agree. Unless you make it about how much you want one and how great this nation is . . . Yes! Wrote that last part with a straight face!

Oh believe me, I want one very badly. It is a great nation, built on the foundations of another great nation.

Lol, amongst others. A country with a long (well not so long) history of contributions from other countries. I can provide further contributions, of a less bloody variety.

USA really is the rainbow-colored paint can of the world. Might be why we both get along and antagonize everyone else. We’ve got the ‘hand me downs’ and whatever we can claim as our own will be crowed about until we’re distracted by something shiny. I’ve said it before, but I really do think this is a country that’s still in its teenage phase. Kind of frustrating since that typically seemed to include a conquering stage, which can’t be done in the modern world. Not without pissing off a lot of people at least.
