By sheer coincidence, I've both recently reviewed a chapbook and put one together myself. The review is for the somber but timely work
The Muddy Season by Matthew Raymond and can be found at
Escape Into Life.
The shameless self-promotion is for a little Christmas story I just put between two covers. I thought this up last year, but didn't get around to it then. And even this year I remembered a little too late. How good the story is, I can't say, but I'm pretty pleased with myself for seeing the project through to the end. Inadvertently, and through no fault of mine (if only you knew how true this was), I think the cover turned out pretty well, or at least is something close to what I envisioned. I've made it as close to free as CreateSpace will allow me. If you want the actual chapbook you can order it
HERE. If you want to read it on Kindle you can order it
HERE. If you don't want to order it and just want to look at the cover, that's fine too.
Seana, I appreciate your shameless self-promotion, without which I would not have known about Wanda's Christmas Story. I ordered it when I saw this post, and it just bubbled up to the top of my reading list today.
ReplyDeleteWhen I started reading it I was not sure where it was going, but I thoroughly enjoyed the journey, and read the ending with a tear of joy. A lovely and entirely believable story. Thank you for bringing it into the world!
Thank you, Jeff. I was ambivalent about doing this project of self-publication for several reasons, but I mean it sincerely when I say that if you got some enjoyment out of it then that has made it all worthwhile.
