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.
