Kay Elizabeth commented on Howard Alan Lantzer's blog post 'Publishing'"Alan, how do you find their customer service/support side? I heard that the after sales side wasn't that great from a lady who also has a book there. Has that been your experience too? I never judge a place by the word of one person as they may…"
Howard Alan Lantzer posted a blog postHurts So Good!
I'm an exercise junkie. I just finished a HARD workout...and it hurts so good! There's a very clear reason for this, however. If I can make it happen, next summer I would like to climb ALL (54) 14,000' mountains in Colorado. And I would like to bicycle from Michigan to Colorado carrying all my gear! (Hey, why not?)I honestly don't know if I can make this happen, but I'm going to train for it anyway. That way, if I can pull it off, I'll be ready. And if I can't, I'm certain my training will open…See More
Howard Alan Lantzer commented on Howard Alan Lantzer's blog post 'Spring?'"Hillary's words work for me! I've always been intensely physical...but born that way. I find a rare joy in testing myself against some difficult, but meaningful, standard. Getting to the top of any of these mountains is NOT easy, but the…"

scribbler commented on Howard Alan Lantzer's blog post 'Spring?'"I could go up all those mountains in two months too. All I'd need was a chair lift LOL. ;) What motivates you to do that, Alan? Are you of the Edmund Hillary school of thought? He once said that "people do not decide to become…"
scribbler commented on Howard Alan Lantzer's blog post '100 Best Novels!'"That's a big challenge right there, tackling that list! Whose 100 Best Novels list did you go with, out of interest? I know both TIME and Random House have them amongst others. The Way of All Flesh was published in 1903. No wonder the language…"
scribbler commented on Howard Alan Lantzer's blog post 'Are You Impressed?'"I don't think it's pretentious to join. Ask me how I feel about you bragging about it though. ;) Just kidding! Seriously, people who don't like to see others shining a light on their achievements and abilities are the ones that have…"
scribbler commented on Howard Alan Lantzer's blog post 'For Everything There is a Season'"I find that too, Alan. When a project keeps hitting obstacles, experience tells me I need to step back and wonder why. Nine times out of ten it's just not the optimal time to go ahead with it and I find the next time around it works out far…"

Howard Alan Lantzer posted a blog postFor Everything There is a Season
I've spent the last several weeks trying to make things happen. In this case, it's the video project I have planned. But nothing is working properly. People seem enthusiastic at first, then disappear. It's frustrating.But it's also clear the universe wants me to wait. I'll know when the time is right, and the time is not right now.I'm not passive by nature, so this is a little difficult. But I've learned how necessary this is. So, I'll wait and see what happens.Blessings!AlanSee More

Linda, look at Lulu.com. They publish all my books and only charge when a title sells. I think it's the best deal available.

NPR just broadcast a very interesting program about the "future" of book publishing. Of course, this means the Internet. Look at us...we're here making things happen. The program mentioned Lulu.com prominently. That's where I have my books posted. So, I'm off to the gym for my workout basking in my identity as a "cutting edge" author!
Blessings!

Are You Impressed?

I just renewed my Mensa membership. Yeah, I know...how pretentious! But not really. I've been an
on and off member for a long time, and it's always been fun. Some time
ago, I coordinated the Mensa motorcycle special interest group. That was
particularly interesting.
I've met any number of remarkable people at various meetings, etc. Sure, there are a few - very few - who pose and posture, but most are
just folks, like you and me in… Continue
