Free ebooks

I have two free ebooks available.  Did you get your copies yet?

One ebook is called Humorous Yarns and Other Stuff and it's been downloaded over 2500 times since September 2010.  It contains samples of my stories and novels.

The scene is called The Strange Worlds of Hank Quense.  It provides a humorous backdrop for the two worlds I have created for my characters to romp around in.  Gundarland is a country populated with humans, dwarfs, elves and other fantasy creatures.  Zaftan 31B is the home world of my vicious, foul-smelling aliens.  It's been downloaded over 400 times since it became available last February.

Here's a review:  Elizabeth Miller on Dec. 21, 2011 : star star star star
Hystically companion to Hank Quense's rather odd and funny novels.





Either (or both) are a good way to sample my stories and find out if you'll like my books.

You can both of these free ebooks at:

Faux News Network Expands its coverage


Faux News Network is proud to announce that it has signed agreements to greatly expand its network.  Effective immediately, a news bureau will be established in Dun Hythe, the capital of Gundarland.  A second bureau will be set up on Zaftan 31B, the home planet of the aliens known as Zaftans.
Our Gundarland bureau chief is named Sandra Elfenheimer.  She will concentrate on interviews and updates on the lives of the many story characters that live there.
On Zaftan 31B, Chazerei will head up the bureau.  We have asked her to compare election processors on Zaftan 31B and on Earth.  Look for her report in the near future.
Since both these bureaus are in a parallel universe, Faux News Network is the first news organization to expand into other worlds and we will be the first news organization to use the newly developed Wormhole Communication System.
