Marketing

 Writing is not easy. You have to be constantly putting your book out there if you want to sell. People do not read and buy books like they did 15 years ago. Now everything is Social Media. I bet I am spending as much time promoting my books as I spend writing them.

Life Stories of a Martial Artist

 The Life Stories of a martial Artist was finished and published last month. It's available as a paperbck, ebook or Audible. I also did a Spanish edition. 

Diary of a Hitman was a book I wrote years ago, but never published. It was too busy and didn't flow. I decided to split it up into two shorter books in a series and published it now it works. the perfect book when you don't have a lot of time to read.

John Shane Wolf a  Western series I wrote a few years back is getting remarketed for the Japanese market for a possible manga production.

Then this website was updated and refaced. 

Memories of Miami Vice is still my most popular book and Alternative Medicine and Treatment seems yet to be discovered.

Things Maybe Happening in Japan

I've approached several companies in Japan about turning the John Shane Wolf books into a possible Manga series. Lets see what develops

New Web Site

Welcome to the new website. 

Here I will talk about my current books and future projects. All my books are available on Amazon in all formats. I write fiction as well as non fiction. My last book Life Stories of a Martial Artist  is non fiction. True stories of my time practicing martial arts and my time working the streets of Miami as an undercover cop.https://a.co/d/01m7GzPX

Just do it

I guess like any creator you want your product to be perfect, but no matter what you are going to have people that like what you do and those that do not. Everyone has different tastes. Case in point there is a well-known author  Chuck Palahniuk who wrote Fight Club that later became a hit movie wrote a book called Pygmy worse book I ever read. Written in pidgin English you could hardly understand. Then there was a weird rape scene involving two boys in a bathroom it was something I wouldn't waste my time to read. After a few chapters, I threw it away. Someone out there must like his books because he's a best selling author.

Stephen King this guy has written some great books and some dogs. What I may consider dogs others may consider gems. The Dark Tower series, for example, was weird and confusing. A story of a western style gunfighter that is on a quest to find a special tower. He gets attacked by lobster creatures, then he finds a portal and lands in modern N.Y inhabiting someone else's mind. Weird and hard to follow, but there is a huge fan base that loves this series.

We all don't listen to the same music and we don't all like the same books, but I guess if we did life would be boring. So, if you feel like creating something just do it and don't worry about what others may say.

New Books

I should have two new books out in the next three months. Finishing up on them now. One fiction one non. Not like anything I've written before.

Miami Vice Audible

First one of my books to go on audible Memories of Miami Vice is selling more on audible than on digital format. Which I find interesting. The book is actually my second non fiction book I also wrote a short book on how to be an entrepreneur.

The Miami Vice book was probably the easiest book I have written since it was all life experiences and didn't require me to create characters, or plots. It was an exciting time when the cocaine flowed and wild west type shootings were common place. Besides being the Glamor capital we were the Homicide capital and the Cocaine capital.

I wanted to put those memories to paper, maybe something left behind for my son. Although he's shown little or no interest in anything I've written, but maybe one day he'll read it.

I doubt I will get rich off this book, but I was proud of the time I served and I think the experience definitely opened my eyes to the real world we live in.

The Passion of Soccer

Visiting Colombia on vacation I got to experience the true passion of soccer. Playing were two big rival teams National of Medellin and Milionarios of  Bogota. Walking to the stadium we were greeted by a battalion of riot police in full gear. Blue smoke bombs exploding everywhere. A scene of controlled chaos. Six mounted police on horses rushed into the crowd to separate the two side of crazed fans. Going through the gate I was searched three times once against the wall assuming the position, which proved to be an interesting experience, being an ex-cop I´m used to making others assume the position. Once inside there were cops everywhere, as soon as a fight started the perpetrators were swarmed and quickly escorted out. The whole stadium erupted in team chants as the fans jumped up and down the whole stadium vibrated in tempo.
A beautiful stadium surrounded by majestic mountains it was the ultimate soccer experience.

What makes one a Writer

What makes one a writer? Just because you wrote a book or two are you a writer? Maybe or maybe not. It seems I´ve never been one to express myself vocally, but have always been able to express myself in my writing. The thoughts seem to just constantly flow like an open faucet, it´seems it has always been easier for me to write my thoughts out than expressing them in speech. I tended to run on the shy side as a kid, so writing was an easy way to express myself. Kicking out the first novel was a real challenge what seemed an impossible challenge, in the beginning, turned out to be not so bad in the end. So, it seems each book gets easier and easier as I continue down this road of creativity.

John Shane Wolf

My two Westerns are a little off the cuff, kind of like a Quentin Tarantino style.The main character is half Apache half white and is a bounty hunter. He has an arsenal of guns like the classic character from the Sabata movies. He gets stuck with an orphan so decides to teach the kid the trade. So now you have a bounty hunting duo. If you like the Spaghetti Westerns with Clint Eastwood you will probably enjoys these two books. If you're a western purest good guys wear white, bad guys wear black then you will probably not like these books. I am graphic on the violence and sex, I guess it's what I liked growing up. I miss those days and the Western movie selection is getting less and less. 
  If you liked Django or the Hateful Eight then you should enjoy these two books.
