KenB Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Finally finished my first novel and have it listed on Amazon.com https://www.amazon.com/dp/1520645155?ref_=pe_870760_150889320 This has been a lifetime goal - bucket list sort of thing - and now it's done. YAY! The Dark Side of Joy is only a moderate departure from some of the stranger tales I've told on my Indian Roads website, so if you've enjoyed what you've read here in the past, I hope you'll give it a look. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micmac Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I am jealous, all I've ever written was a thesis. That cured me of my writing and reading endeavors. I haven read a book in decades. Congratulations, I have been on a bucket list quest lately as well. Good luck Ken 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenB Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Your welcome, I do read quite a bit, almost 300 books in the last two years & none of those were porn, now if we added porn you could triple the count I've always read a lot... all different genres... except romance - I'm not into chick-porn. Congrats Ken! I can't wait to read it Slainte!!! I am jealous, all I've ever written was a thesis. That cured me of my writing and reading endeavors. I haven read a book in decades. Congratulations, I have been on a bucket list quest lately as well. Good luck Ken It helps to be Irish - we're naturally inclined to tell stories... and the more alcohol consumed, the more outlandish the tale. Congrats Ken Does it have pictures ? Amazon can't handle fold out pages. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tgwazu Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Got it Ken, can't wait to dive into it. LOVE the title and cover art! For anyone unfamiliar with Ken, lemme tell ya this guy can write! Visit his Indian Roads website for samples of his work, and I am sure you will agree. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenB Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 That's very nice of you to say! Thanks. Writing and telling stories is something I've always enjoyed doing. Now that I'm retired, I'm working on it. Getting this book on Amazon was a lifelong dream of mine. I really hope you enjoy the story.

dk007 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I'll order the book and have you autograph it for me at Durango. However, I enjoy your stories better over margaritas at Mexican restaurants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenB Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Posted this up in the new Indian forum, thought I'd add it here too. I ordered some custom primary covers from River City Biker, and had them use the image from the cover of my book. They installed in about 5 minutes each, and are held in place by REALLY STRONG magnets (they aren't going anywhere). Quality was good, and the service was excellent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
