Paradise, with Books and Dogs
My guest today is Mac Wheeler, the author of an astounding number of novels and an awesome photographer. So I'm just going to let him tell you about himself and show you some of his photos.
Cool Stuff First
To celebrate publication of the third book in my New Order Apocalypse series I'm giving away a mobi/epub copy of NOA 1. You can read about it here...if it sounds interesting, drop me a note (I won't keep your email address, I promise).
My Photography
I blog my pitcher-taking experiences. As an immodest exhibitionist, I especially love to show off my beautiful pups. A sampling of some of my favorite shots line this post on the right. I hope you'll visit my blog and experience my Florida via my Sunday Safari posts. (Lately with the gorgeous spring we've had, I've spent more time in the park with my pups, so I've been posting more photos.)
My Pups
If you visit my blog you'll see a lot of pictures of my three girls. Molly is slowing down, but she's my dynamo. A 12 year-old Labrador with a failing transmission, she can no longer ride with me on my Goldwing. I miss that I won't see any new photos of her on my bike wearing her red Doggles. Lucy is the Rottweiler. If you know the breed, enough said. She is the most loving, goofiest friend I've ever had. Gracie is a mix. I'd guess mostly Golden, with some combination of Collie, Border Collie, Sheltie, and/or GSD. Talking about Velcro-Dog. I hope you'll visit them.
About Me
I live in beautiful Tampa, Florida, AKA paradise, with my dearest of a whole bunch of years. I'm an active guy, though slowing down since passing the double-nickel. Rotten knees preclude basketball which I dearly miss, but I'm out every day with my pups, jog, hike, and bicycle every opportunity.
The Writer
I'm a full time writer of speculative fiction, fantasy, SF, suspense, and paranormal with a twist. The Wheeler library entails eight series from YA with ogres and trolls, grittier vampire and werewolf noir, and a traditional family saga. Two stand-alone novels are screaming for their own series, with outlines waiting to be fleshed out. If you're a reader, consider dropping by my web page and perusing my titles. Click a cover to read a 30-page excerpt. I hope you'll find something you like.
Carol, thanks again for letting me visit. Be seeing you on Bloglovin. Cheers.
I owe Mac two apologies. One for totally blanking on the date this post was supposed to appear originally. And the second for not being as technically proficient as he is with Blogger and photos. I was unable to make his photo arrays larger without them taking over the entirety of the posting area and running into the sidebar.
So go to his blog and take a peek at the real things - you'll be happy :)
Thursday is the last day to enter the July contest on my website - www.carolkilgore.net - for a chance to win a Kindle copy of SOLOMON'S COMPASS.
Before her uncle died, he sent Taylor a message with the location of his buried treasure. Unearthing it will place her squarely in the killer's crosshairs, but she's determined to fulfill her uncle's last wish.
Jake, sent to protect her and find the killer, has other plans. His mission would be much easier to accomplish if he could forget how good she'd tasted when he kissed her.
Good luck!
Comments
Hi, Carol.
Congratulations to you to Carol. I finally figured out why I haven't been able to comment. Glitch in the machine.
Yvonne.
Love,
Janie
And I am very, very awed/humbled/grateful for the work of all the writers - and have learned to love many that I have found here. Thank you - and him. And all the other writers too.
Anne - Glad you figured out the problem!
L.G. - Same here :)
Liza - My pleasure.
Lexa - When I have blog issues, I know I'm not alone :)
and carol - thanks for supporting my bbf blog tour! i'm headed over to enter your raffle now!
While I love his nature photography, nothing makes me smile more than seeing pictures of his dogs.
Tara - Cool!
Julie
Waving at Carol.
Waving back at all of you!
Thank you for hosting me.
I look forward to greeting your readers when I'm feeling better.
(my wife typed this for me)
Take care of your hand. They're kind of important for writers.
Congrats! Now that's taking PRODUCTIVITY to the max!
I got really sick from all the meds and have been mostly flat on my back. There is no minor surgery, let me tell you. Those doctors start injecting you with stuff and I think they get carried away.
I appreciate all the kind words about my purdy pups, photos and productivity. I am just such a good liar I keep coming up with new yarns.
Love ya all...now back to bed :)
