Important Notice: The deadline for writing entries to the Thursday Doors Writing Challenge has been extended to run concurrent with this week’s doors challenge. The deadline for both is now noon on Saturday, June 3rd.
Last week, I attended a retirement lunch for a woman who worked for me before I retired. The lunch was catered in the office where we both used to work. On my way there, just like I did every morning when I was working, I stopped at Great River Park. Normally, my visit to the park consists of watching a few ducks, maybe some fishermen, but last week was different.
Two men pulled up to the boat ramp dragging a good sized boat. As they were backing it into the water, a park ranger drove over, stepped out of his quad and walked over to the men. From what I overheard, the men with the boat didn’t have a registration for it. I didn’t hear all the details, but it sounded like a whole lot of “the check is in the mail” and like that.
The bottom line was offered by the ranger.

“If you get in any trouble on this river, their gonna ask where you put it, and it ain’t gonna be from my dock.”

All five of my current books are now available in audio book form thanks to Amazon KDP’s Virtual Voice process. The voice is AI generated, but I can honestly say, it’s pretty darn good. The audio books are reasonably priced (all below $7 US) and, if you already own the Kindle version and want to add an audio version, you can do that for $1.99. There is a five-minute sample on the book page for each book. If you’re interested, click on any of the Dreamer’s Alliance book links below the image or on the link below for my latest book.
