The Detective’s Car Released


The ebook and audiobook of Vin Stone – The Detective’s Car have been published. They are available at Kobo as well as other places. At such a low price as that, I can’t see why anyone wouldn’t want to pick it up and then, of course, write a review of it.

In this book, Vin Stone engages in some interesting conversations with a car, so you should really check it out.

Stories for Men – Part One

Today’s reading is part one of Stories for Men by John Kessel, part of a collection of short stories called The Baum Plan for Financial Independence. It is about twelve minutes long. The story isn’t actually a short story. It’s more like a novella, so be prepared for many parts. We’re back on the Moon with this one. It’s the same locale as in The Juniper Tree. A boy is trying to find his way in the matriarchal society, and finding many of the same problems as are found by women and girls here and now.
