Did I just beat Cancer with over-the-counter Supplements?
My doctor, of course, says that is impossible--but the second biopsy (and now the third biopsy as well) shows no cancer, after a biopsy in 2017 showed prostate cancer, with a Gleason score of six. I had thought it was seven, but now they say it was six. And the doctor has no explanation about where the cancer cells went. I think I know. I took three supplements that are known to kill cancer cells in petri dishes. My doctor says that's in a petri dish, and it has nothing to do with how they react inside your body. Well, okay, then, doctor, where did my cancer go? And my sexual performance got noticeably better as well, which would tend to indicate that my prostate is in better health overall. I am writing a new book about prostate health! Writing is finished, but next appointment with the prostate doctor is coming up, so I will hold off publishing the book until about late November or early December, so I can get the latest information into the book. Okay, my life got put on hold May 25th, when two corrupt and very stupid Alachua County deputies decided they were going to make me their DUI bust of the year. I will PROVE that they Lied Under Oath in the arrest report, which is a sworn document, so they are guilty of criminal perjury. I spent 47 days in jail solely because of their outrageous and extremely prejudicial lies, and since I got out, I have been diagnosed as suffering from depression and PTSD. They would not allow me to go to my followup appointment at the VA. I have now had another biopsy, and the doctor just called me to cancel the followup visit because the biopsy was once again negative. I will get a copy of the result and add it to the book along with some comments, and the book will be ready to publish. Sorry about the delay, but then I will have another book to write, all about how you can be minding your own business, and get wrongfully arrested for a serious charge!

The 2019 biopsy also found no cancer, and I have a copy of the printout from the lab, but need to black out certain identifying details before I insert it and release the book. It should be available soon. Other distribution avenues will be added later. Smashwords does aggregate through Apple Books, Barnes and Noble, and Rakuten Kobo. (No Pre-Release pricing on Physical Copies.) Again, I am very sorry for the delays, but things were totally out of my control. I had no internet access at all, and was denied permission to even look up my sister's phone number from my wallet, so i could arrange bail, when i should have been out on personal recognizance the very first day!
This book is not yet ready to be released because we are concentrating on the new book.

Smashwords or Amazon? Amazon is easier to use if you actually have a Kindle Reader, though there are instructions on Smashwords as to how to download the .mobi version of their books to your Kindle Reader or tablet or whatever. The advantage of Smashwords is that they support other E-Reading platforms than just the Kindle. You can choose to download books from Smashwords in .pdf format, or E-Pub format (used by Apple, Barnes and Noble, and Kobo, among others) and several other formats. Smashwords is also an aggregator, which means that they wholesale to companies like Apple i-books, Kobo, and Barnes and Noble, so if you have an account with one of those companies, the books are available there as well. And, frankly, Smashwords is much more author-friendly than Amazon, and pays higher royalties. Our books are now available on PublishDrive, Draft 2 Digital, and Lulu as well. PublishDrive distributes through Google Books, D2D makes certain things easier, and Lulu has more formats available, including hardcover. (We like Lulu a lot....)
NEW! No-Content Books!
We have joined the rush to No Content books with our new "Author's Journal" and "Author's Notebook." The journal is old-school, perfect bound, white paper with black lines. The notebook is spiral bound, so the pages can lay flat, and you can fold it over so that the book open is the same size as the book closed. This makes it much better for hand-holding. You can hold it in one hand and write in it with the other. It is also A5 in size, which makes it 5.833" x 8.264", slightly smaller than the 6" x 9" perfect bound book. And we made the lines lighter and narrower, so that you can use the pages for a sketch or a diagram, then scan it in to your computer, and adjust the brightness, contrast, and/or gamma to make the lines disappear, then you can plop it right into your Work In Progress. Or you could even use it for text, and make the lines disappear, and make it appear that you could hold perfectly straight lines without a line in place! This is a premium paperback book, which has 60# interior pages, and 100# cover stock, heavier than the perfect bound book. You may find it well worth the increased price, which is still significantly less than double the price of the perfect-bound book....

SOLAR ENERGY on a Shoestring Budget
We have devised a VERY inexpensive means of mounting solar panels to the roof, and we reveal that in our book on the project. We are now at five panels and four batteries, and Phase One will max out at six each, which will provide enough electricity to run our table saw and a small refrigerator for all of those Smutty Nose Porters, and Coke for Kraken Cuba Libres. Phase Two will max out at 15 panels and batteries, and Phase three, if needed, will be a duplicate of Phase Two. Phase One may then be moved to provide energy to the 12' x 28' shed at the rear of the property.... Solar panels are now available for less than a dollar a watt, so you can add up to a kwh, with a 100-watt panel, a battery, and a charge controller, for right at $200, or just about what you probably pay every month to the power company right now! Pop in one a month, and in 2-1/2 years, you'll have 30 kwh, about what the average house uses in a day. That's the plan, anyway. We need to cut down more trees to get that much power per day from each panel in the winter time, though.... And if you don't average ten hours of sun every day, it goes down a bit, but you don't need full sun to get full output, either. Regular sales price is $4.99. Paperback now available at $9.99 from Amazon and from Lulu. And yes, you can buy the Tee Shirt from $17 (varies by shirt quality, with very large sizes going up as well. The quality seems related to the smoothness of the fabric, which determines how well it takes the ink.) Click the button below to show everyone you believe in renewable energy.

Our First Review (Yay!)
Jay Hamilton (motorsports journalist and former manager & salesman for several automotive dealerships) wants to make sure if you’re buying a car, it is you and not the dealership in the driver seat of the negotiation. His straight-talking ninety-two page primer is folksy and filled with personal anecdotes and insider information designed to give a buyer the money-saving advantage needed to make a smart deal. It is well worth the price of the quick-read book. In fact, with the information provided in the nine chapters of HOW TO BUY A CAR WITHOUT LOSING YOUR SHIRT, the reader will come to know exactly what the salesman knows, and more.
Like having a personal consultant at your side, Hamilton’s casual but detailed primer is a fun and easy read. Topics range from researching your dealership to motivations of a salesman, and even to specifics regarding some of the tricks and traps which plague the industry of automobile sales. Using personal experience and anecdotes, Hamilton breaks down the psychology of buying by illustrating the complexities of the buyer/seller relationship in layman’s terms.
Particularly in the chapter, The Five Steps in Selling a Car, we learn how salesmen can play to a buyer’s habits, tap into a customer’s behavior patterns, and subtly connect to their customer's psychology in order to dampen intellect, amplify passion, and compel them to just say ‘yes’. But with the help of HOW TO BUY A CAR WITHOUT LOSING YOUR SHIRT, the reader will be informed not just in the buy/sell process (including used vehicles), but also in the servicing of the vehicle for the future, and even right down to the nitty-gritty of the warranty package.
Beginning with a simple concept--actually practicing to buy a car out in the real market before opening one's wallet--Hamilton’s no-nonsense advice and personal experience will literally save the buyer hundreds and possibly even thousands of dollars. And with hand-drawn comic illustrations (by artist Michael Garvin) and witty personal examples from real life, this book distinguishes itself as a serious, but seriously fun way to very quickly become a wise consumer—and not just for automobiles, but also in the practical buyer/seller situations we face each and every day.
If you are in the market for a vehicle, preparing with this book is an invaluable asset!
