You aimed me in that direction and I plan to put Parallax on Kindle with Amazon before I actually publish it. I know you prefer that medium and I'll do the same with the L. G. book as soon as I can get a shot of the cover. So if I can figure it out, both will be available for Kindle or on a PC.

Your re-write, Folsom Paralex, should do well. <br />I'm going to get your book on Las Gatos. Growing up in Sam Jose, this should also be a good read. <br />I had no idea how complex and risky publishing is and respect your lifelong efforts even more.Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04238911690667911158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7356810570417598585.post-48903064379300933492011-03-19T10:18:39.665-07:002011-03-19T10:18:39.665-07:00Ahhh Ralph.

While I still want to buy (not a gift mind you) a copy of the book and will likely want to buy Folsom Parallax, I'm very sad it will be paper copies rather than an ebook (without DRM I hope).<br /><br />So let me know when and where I can buy the books. I'm looking forward to both.Malcolmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02382287257942302447noreply@blogger.com
