The Conrad Chronicles: Rejection is now in print!

About an hour ago, I received my proof copy for The Conrad Chronicles: Rejection. After checking it over, I submitted the okay for it to be distributed. While it will take 6 to 8 weeks for the book to be fully available through books stores and online places such as amazon and Barnes and Nobles, the book can be purchased right now from lulu.com.

In fact, today (November 26), Lulu is offering one of it's biggest discounts of the year, 35% off.  Also, I have knocked 10% of the book, so that means you will save 45% off of the cover price of $17.99 if you buy it today. Though, if you do miss the discount Lulu is offering, today, they usually have another one going on (usually 10% to 20%), so if you head to lulu.com you can find it.

For your information, Rejection is the the third book in the series. You can start the series at this book (as originally it was the first book written), but if you want all the background you really should read Revolt and Realizations first, both of which are available at Lulu at a discount (and are already on amazon, Barnes and Nobles, as well as other places). Rejection is also a darker book than the first two, and thus I have marked it on Lulu as an over 18 book.

Happy Reading!

Backyard Archaelolgy: Last Finds of Year Three

As we are already in November, all major yard work is now complete for this season. Thus, the last bits of treasures for this year have been unearthed from my backyard. Though as abundant as the discarded objects have been, I wonder how much or how little this winter's rains will uncover for my discover next Spring.

These last items were found in two batches. The first batch found two months ago included a small toy car, a marble, and other parts to something.



The last relics found this past month are as follows: Part of a spatula, a spoon, part of a snorkel, a folding toy person/robot, a golf ball, a screw/bolt, and a metal tie down in the shape of a plus.

PS Ignore the date on the photo as I was too lazy to set it in the camera before taking this photo. That's the age of the camera.
