Fourteen Years as an Indie Author

November 25th marked 14 years since I became an Indie author. My first published story, Faith, Love and Moonshine: An Appalachian Tale, was published on Smashwords back in 2011 and has since spread across the interwebs to many other retailing sites. That story has also spawned two novels: Moonshiner's Justice and Moonshiner's Honor. Eventually, I plan to expand the series into a third book. I've been claiming that for a while now, but I know that someday it will happen.

I still write about every day, although, I don't publish as often as I would like. My writing consists of whatever story I'm working on at the moment and journal entries. Both are very therapeutic. I couldn't stop either even if I tried. I suppose I'll stop writing when I lose my mind or when I'm dead.

Here's the very first Faith, Love and Moonshine cover compared to the most recent one. There have been a few in between. Also, this story is permanently free on Amazon and other sites. Grab a copy HERE if you'd like.
