It's in there, ya know. *wink*"<BR/><BR/>re<BR/><BR/>I wrote one book and self-published it. As I was writing this comment I stopped and took a quick count of how many printed copies I had left:<BR/>approximately 26.<BR/><BR/>I am thinking of making an ebook out of my book and eventually selling it on the Internet, and maybe even selling the 26 printed copies I have left.<BR/><BR/>If I do that it wouldn't be until at least the summer of 2007 and maybe even 2008. The price would be less than your book. Who knows maybe we will end up buying each other's book. Though should that be the case, you will end up slightly ahead<BR/>monetarily wise (wink).<BR/><BR/>Not munching donuts yet today,<BR/>TubbyHopalong Cassidyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15553691790970842758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-1159411952126038842006-09-27T22:52:00.000-04:002006-09-27T22:52:00.000-04:00Heya Benning!..stimulating questions dude..ya mean...Heya Benning!..stimulating questions dude..ya mean I hafta think?..lol..Been to Venice and Jerusalem...both prolly the most beautiful cities in the world!..gotta think bout the rest!WomanHonorThyselfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17211851365273181636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-1159410316906827122006-09-27T22:25:00.000-04:002006-09-27T22:25:00.000-04:00***Alert*** *** Book Review *****SPOILER ALERT!**O...***Alert*** *** Book Review ***<BR/>**SPOILER ALERT!**<BR/><BR/>Ok, I've just finished reading "Benning's War", and I'm disgusted! It's factually inaccurate. How can Isaac Benning have existed in the late 1700s and still be alive to blog today? It's just not possible! Now I see why he's hiding behind those shades... he's a big fibber!<BR/><BR/>All sarcasm aside, your book is a great read, and I hope you make another. We got to watch as the tragic loss at the beginning of the story led to something much greater in the end. It's a good lesson that even horrific incidents can lead to positive outcomes if we let them.<BR/><BR/>I'm not giving away the bulk of your story, because people should read it themselves to get the full meaning of the book. I'm giving it a firm A-.<BR/><BR/>And I only attached the minus because neither I nor anyone in my family was mentioned. That's a minus in my opinion, but everyone else would consider it a plus :)blogagoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07359382592912601640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-1159395012104439852006-09-27T18:10:00.000-04:002006-09-27T18:10:00.000-04:001.

Haven't been to Boone though. I know I would have enjoyed the seafood restaurant because that's my favorite too.<BR/><BR/>Gorgeous pictures, Benning, especially liked that one of Ireland.

If I did, I'd have to accuse myself of the same thing! Regarding your meme: #3 - I'm a history buff too, so the Battle of Hastings, Gettysburg, and Salamis came a close second. But I've already been there! #6 - Hogwart's came a close third, after Narnia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-1159382998949691532006-09-27T14:49:00.000-04:002006-09-27T14:49:00.000-04:00Can't wait to see what you come up with.
