Writing the Backwash with R. H. Sheldon
Publications
Here are a few items I’ve written. These don’t include feature articles or technical stuff. But they’re something.
5-Spot ebook travel series. Each book provides information about five free places to visit in one of many cities and regions around the country.
Ebook Now: The Essential and Simple Guide to Creating and Publishing Professional Ebooks for Kindle and ePub. The title says it all.
Dancing the River Lightly. A novel. A storm. A frolic through the woods. And much much more.
Grabbing Characters by the Throat and Squeezing the Truth Out of Those Lying Bastards. A look at how to use dishonesty in fiction to reveal the complexities of characters’ personalities and their relationships with those around them. The ebook is available from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple, Smashwords, Sony, Diesel, and Kobo.
“Birds of Paradise,” Silk Road Review, Volume 6, Issue 2 (Summer-Fall 2011). Last I checked, you could read the story here.
The silent epidemic: climate change extends the range of forest-killing beetles. Kindle ebook, 2007. The book is based on an article I wrote several years ago. I discovered it was on the Amazon site accidentally. I was never informed about its use, nor have I ever received royalties. Such is the nature of publishing these days.
Pacific Passion. Fraser, Colorado: DB Publications, 1987. Part of the proposed gag-gift series “ToileTales: Read ’em ’n’ wipe.” Like the last book, the link is to Amazon. I was quite surprised to find this book listed. One used copy. I’m tempted to buy it myself, just because I can.
Hungry? Seattle Family: The Lowdown on Where the Real People Eat! Los Angeles, California: Glove Box Guides. 2008. Contributed to the collection of restaurant reviews.
In addition to the works above, I’ve published several other ebooks based on my blog posts. I created the books mostly because it was fun coming up with the covers, that and being able to tell people I have a bunch of ebooks on Amazon. But the books are available in other places as well, in a variety of ebook formats. Along with each of the following titles, I’ve included links to my books at the various outlets.
