I started reading Dr seuss’s green eggs and ham last week.. i have 2 pages to go... pretty good book so far
My favorite Dr. Seuss is Fox in Socks
Here is one of my favorite parts:
"Let's have a little talk about tweetle beetles
What do you know about tweetle beetles? Well...
When tweetle beetles fight
It's called a tweetle beetle battle
And when they battle in a puddle
It's a tweetle beetle puddle battle
AND when tweetle beetles battle with paddles in a puddle
They call it a tweetle beetle puddle paddle battle"
?
Love it!

What are they about? ? spy stuffs?
Yes, mostly. Scot is a covert agent who works for the President to get things done that nobody else needs to know about. The books are up to date with current events worldwide, and sometimes a bit prophetic with subject matter. They are action packed and exciting.

Brad Thor lives in TN, and is frequently interviewed on Fox News...he's very conservative.

If you ever read Tom Clancy books, you would like Brad Thor's writing. Brad's are a little easier to read...not quite such in depth detail.

My problem is that all my reading time is spent here on TFO!

He might not want to say it himself, but I recommend our very own @jsheffield's books. They can be found on amazon. I've read the first 2 in his series that follows a freelance "detective/investigator".

Thanks for the shoutout!

I didn't want to bring my work into a place I play, but since you mentioned it...

amazon.com/Jamie-Sheffield/e/B00AVJVYHS

If anyone is interested in reading any of my books, but is low on funds due to Covid (or whatever) reach out via PM and I can arrange a 99-cent or free day forTFO members.

Not yet, but I'm working on a detective novel featuring a tortoise rescuer who also solves crimes.

Jamie

You should write one were someone has a stalker hiding in the bushes, but their pet aldabra bites them on the butt and they are discovered and arrested ?? jk jk

In the "Tooting my own horn" category, I'm celebrating the publication of my seventh book in print this morning.

copilot.jpg

In the tradition of chapbooks (something I only recently learned about, and love the idea of), it's a short collection priced inexpensively so that it gets read.

Ten stories about dogs and their people (or vice versa), "Dog is My Co-Pilot" is a literally pocket-sized collection (5.5" X 8.5" and 83 pages) that should please anyone who's a dog-lover.


Here's a collection of great dog memes to share in celebration of my new book about dogs.

My new book, "Dog is My Co-Pilot", is out... taking a look at the relationship between people and their dogs (or vice versa). If you're a lover of dogs, or know one, get a copy of "Dog is my Co-Pilot" for you or them today.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DC69JXS/

Again, if you're interested in reading it but cannot afford it at this time, reach out to me via pm, and we can work something out... my books are written to be read.

Jamie
