First Book on Kindle

Thanks to Kimberly Erickson for the image!
Getting over the flu, I decided it was a good time to experiment with the Kindle format.  It turns out that it's not only simpler than Lulu, the finished product is also much better--not to mention the wider distribution.  So...I'll probably be keeping Kindle for future short writing ventures and turning to Lulu only for things like calendars.

My first e-book for Kindle users is called Three Short Stories.  This book includes "Stars Within the Glass," "Into the Night," and "Light in the Darkness."

While two of the stories have been sold separately before, "Into the Night" has never been published before.  It was originally intended to be part of a larger work, but I discarded the novel subplot idea it represented. While this is probably more of a chapter than a traditional, unified short story, I think you will still enjoy reading the tale.  I welcome reader comments, as they may actually help me decide whether, or not, to finish the tale of Benjamin Jenkins in the late 1800s.
