    My Other Hobby - Take IV

    I got great news this morning. I just learned that my novel, FALL EAGLE ONE (http://amzn.to/ITGoGk) is a semifinalist in The Kindle Book Review's Best Indie Books of 2012 in the Mystery/Thriller category. Finalists will be announced in September. Thanks again to all you who have given me reviews on Amazon.

    That's some great news. My wife has a Kindle. If I can swipe it for a while, I can read it. Thinking positively on you winning.

          Congratulations! I know how much work all that promotional stuff is, when you'd rather be writing... My wife's first book just got published a few weeks ago.

          Good luck, hope you make it into the finals!

            I've been distracted recently and I haven't had a chance to finish it. Certainly not due to the lack of interest, it's a very well done book. I'll make it a point to finish this week and submit my review.

                    Congrats!

                    I will certainly look to read this book sounds awesome.

                    Keep up the good work.

                      You have my vote. Just finished reading it at about 2:45 this morning, impossible to put down. Keep a pad of paper and pencil handy as you read as there is a lot of info to look up later. I love all the technical stuff, strong characters and a great plot. Great job. Are you working on anything else?

                      Good Luck
                      Rick

                        Thanks for all the supportive words, guys. I am currently working on a novel about the early months of WW2 in the Western Pacific. I call it, HOLD BACK THE SUN. It relates the adventures and romances of two Naval Reserve lieutenants in the U.S. Asiatic Fleet. All the Fleet actions through the Battle of the Java Sea are included. I hope to publish it sometime next fall.
                        Thanks again,
                        Papa
