Bunnies from the archive.

The Thursday Doors recap for the two and one half day period listed above is ready to be viewed. Click here if you’re interested. There are some wonderful doors out there this week!

Anyone who leaves a link or makes a pingback to the current week’s Thursday Doors post on my site, is automatically included in the recap. If you don’t leave a link, I will try to find you, but I can’t make any promises.

Yesterday was Veterans Day in the US. We were very busy welcoming Damyanti Biswas to the bar, and I only managed to post a flag photo from Veterans Park. Today, I want to add something to today’s post to improve on that message:

  • The entrance to the park always makes me think of the veterans I know/knew
  • We have a new banner at the entrance to the park
  • Every service represented
  • One flag–Every American

Books on Gateway Clipper

Knuckleheads — The Evil You Choose — When Evil Chooses You — Secrets held Against Evil

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.

    Your baby bunny photo is outstanding! It may be the bestest of the bunnies. I also enjoyed the post that featured Damyanti yesterday. The observations about traditional publishing and how it alters the process for the writer were informative. A friend recently landed a memoir with Simon & Schuster after multiple rejections from multiple other publishers, but instead of the typical 9 months to release the book, Simon let him know that it is being pushed from 2024 to 2025 because of the expected glut of election- or politically-related books that would be competing for eyeballs. My friend is still thrilled but observed “But in 2025 i’ll be 80 years old!” Sometimes deferred gratification has unintended consequences. Anyway great post and interview session.

    Since I’m digging through the archives, I’m trying to find some good ones.

    I feel for your friend. And, I hate to think that reading in general will be down next year due to the election. Don’t we hear enough about that? Don’t we need a distraction?

    Damyanti’s first book with this publisher was pushed back twice. I guess these guys know what they’re doing, but that would drive me crazy. I’m glad you enjoyed the post

    Thanks Dan. I was just looking at the photo I have of my father in his uniform standing next to my grandmother when he was about to leave for Normandy. We have no idea. (K)

      I have a picture of my dad standing next to his mom before leaving for the South Pacific. He never talked much about it, but from what I’ve read, it was a tough time.

        My father never talked about it either.

    Did the rabbit go under the deck to have babies, Dan? This baby bunny is so cute.

      They make a shallow pit in the yard to have their babies, then they cover them with grass and other stuff to hide them. We have to be very careful in the spring not to uncover them. They don’t keep them close to their home so predictors can follow them to the nest. They check on them a couple times during each day/night.

        That is a smart way to protect the young. We don’t have rabbits around here. I’ve seen rabbits in my friend’s backyard in California.
