i had to add another book to the Winter Road series on how to lose money without say I Do to get the years 2010-11 included. being the 13th book and the 3rd book in the series means the book is cursed. so i used a picture of one of the white suburbans i owned which was given away as a parting gift to one on the ladies who was engaged to me. the first book in the series My Struggles is stll being offered for FREE with amazon till midnight tonight.
April 19 2021
just finishing the 2nd book in my winter road book series on how to lose money without saying I Do. the book is based around the 86 Dodge known as the Head Hanger because when you drive the truck who hang you head in shame. the truck right from the factory was never a chick magnet.
April 18 2021
back in 2005 i had a black suburban known as Chrome-less because there was no chrome. we splashed the paint over the chrome when we painted the suburban black. Chrome-less fell off the trailer while loading it to head south because the transmission blew up. my dad changed out the suburban body and mounted a 46 chevy cab, fenders and box to be a hot rod truck driving around brandon MB for a fellow. my loss was someone else gain. amazon still has my step by step book for free which is my loss your gain.
April 17 2021
as amazon has my 1st book in my Winter Road Book Series on for FREE for 4 more days. i continue to work on the 2nd book call Head Hanger which is based on the 86 Dodge Ram truck that we used on the winter roads. this new book series is a step by step instruction on how to lose money without saying "I Do". also amazon has my new book in the family section on amazon because i have included being a single parent of my daughter Xena from birth.
April 16 2021
since facebook was dead like my Honeymoon yesterday. amazon was nice enough to let me load up "drafts" for my next 3 books in my Winter Road Book Series. now to stay sober to write all 3 books at 35,000 words and 40 photos each. also amazon has the 1st book in the series on for FREE for the next 5 days. click on a share it well because amazon knows how to make money.
April 15 2021
one of the features on amazon other then having a freshly released new book go to #1 in new release is the look inside option. this is a nice feature because you can see how the book is laid out and do a test read for your enjoyment. just like in marriage today, nobody waits for the Honeymoon for the fun to begin, everyone enjoys a few test drives before the Honeymoon these days. i like the look inside option because this is the only way to see what my books look like until a few Kingdom Followers purchase my books then send me pictures and tell me what it is like. due to the covid 19 lock downs, we Canadian authors can not get our FREE author copies mailed to us to be proofread. oh well to me this is a minor detail in my struggles in life. once you click on the look inside option, the book will appear as several test read pages. i like things tight with no spaces, no tabs in on sentences and font 14 for easy reading. i can squeeze in 35,000 words, 34 pictures (not sure if in colour being colour blind) in to a 150 page book which is a good size of book according to amazon. please enjoy because i am working on the next one in the Winter Road Series which is my book 12 of my writing career.
April 14 2021
it is official with my 11th book of my writing career now on amazon. this is the 1st book in my winter road series based from 1996 to 2007. the book tells of "My Struggles" to learn winter and ice roads plus being a single parent. plus being colour blind i like the how the cover turned out.
April 13 2021
yesterday i worked on getting the cover for my 11th book completed which is the first book in the KoO Winter Road Book Series called Winter Roads: My Struggles. the 39 chevy looks good for being 82 years old. thansk
last day for being FREE on Amazon my 4th book
April 12 2021
i have been working on the 1st book in my 3 book series on winter roads which span from 1996-2020. these books explain the fun i had and the learning i did in building, traveling or becoming famous for 15 seconds on national TV around the world. the 1st book is called Winter Roads: My Struggles (mine campf if you want to add humour to the present day lock downs that i am under in northern manitoba, lol) which is from 1996-2007. i hope to have the book finished this week to join my 7 other books on amazon. my 4th book is still FREE on amazon. when looking for pictures for my books that were on the 35mm film, i found this picture of the 37 Dodge as work truck in 1993 after my DIEvorce when i had nothing.
April 11 2021
on friday during the heat of the day, i took Thor in to WHO-ville to xena's house. we used the air on the truck to air up the tires on the quad since they went flat over the winter. it is a lot easier using Thor then anything else. "yes" the quad is parked in a steel shed because WHO-ville is the new Detroit Michigan of the north with lots of crime and town water we can't drink plus high taxes. being a famous 5 Star Amazon Author i might be moving to Cuba to live and write my books like Ernest Hemingway did because it is the same lock down rules i am living under now plus warmer.
April 10 2021
i am not sure what i did but my first book that i re-released on amazon as a second edition with a different cover picture of the linn tractor is still #1 in new release 10 days later. i hope this means more Stars for me because like kindergarten i am liking all these Stars my books have been getting. my 4th book is FREE on amazon for 4 more days so click on and share it well because amazon knows how to make money.
April 09 2021
looking for pictures for my winter roads books. i found a picture of the Screaming Ford in 1996 which was taken 2 years after i bought the truck. oh the memories of simpler times and when i had hair on top of my head too.
Amazon has my 4th book on FREE on the Ebook for the next 5 days so click on and share it well.
April 08 2021
after the DIEvorce i was left with obsolete equipment to make a living. the 15B dragline loaded a lot of scrap metal with the 36" magnet. the 37 Dodge which i am making famous in my Naughty Natalie Book Series for being a fast truck was my work truck. the rear-end and transmission got changed out and replaced in the truck of speed to a truck of slow speed but making me money. oh the memories plus i had all my hair on top of my head back then too.
April 07 2021
it was just a normal day in the Kingdom with snow on the 39 chevy to remind us we still have 2 months of winter in the Great White North. plus i am not sure what i did but some of my books with Stars showed up as a group on amazon so i snapped a picture. i am very pleased to have this many Stars on the usa amazon because it is a tough market for only having books released at the end of january. with more snow coming, i made a list of the 15 books i will have on Amazon before summer. also summer for us is the 5 hot days we get in july then it is back to winter.
April 06 2021
it was a nice surprise to see my 4th book in the new releases on amazon so quickly because i just released it on sunday after waiting over 10 years. then when i scrolled down to see what other books were on the new release chart i found my 3rd book still there. now that was a surprise too. not sure when amazon will have my 4th book on for a FREE 5 days down load but i let them handle the marketing since they know how to make money.
April 05 2021
i am thinking of using this picture of the Screaming Ford for my 12th book cover Winter Roads: 15 Seconds of Fame. i am unable to use any Hollywood pictures from when we filmed on the advise of my lawyer who is one of the best that advertises on TV after midnight. plus i like using all my pictures because i took them and being colour blind i like the colours.
it is the last day Amazon has my second book on for FREE down load on Kindle. please enjoy and share it well.
April 04 2021
it was a quiet day in the Kingdom and i was able to get my 4th book on amazon. 6 hours later it was released and people can enjoy my book that took over 10 years to bring in to print. the hardest part about getting the book together was the fact i wrote most of the story while i was drinking professionally. yes, most of the ends of all the stories had to be re-written because i was shit face drunk and made lots of mistake. i thought i need the booze to be creative but that only created some very creative mistakes. now writing sober is a lot easier plus less mistakes too.
April 03 2021
this will be the cover on my 11th book which is the 6th book in the King of Obsolete Book Series with Amazon. it was decided to do 2 books on winter road in northern manitoba which will span my 20 years of having fun and losing money like having ladies in my life. this picture of the Screaming Ford was taken on the winter road that we were hauling on long after it closed back in 2012. also Amazon still has my 2nd book on for FREE as the Ebook so click on and share it well.
April 02 2021
yesterday was April Fools day in Canada and this is what i woke up too. both of my books on usa amazon as #1 and #2 in new releases plus my KoO Ladies book has a 5 Star rating twice for only being on amazon for 8 days. i hit refresh on the computer several times thinking that this was a good April Fools joke but it was not. usa amazon has taken a liking to me which is suppose to be a hard market to get in to. all successful amazon authors say to use canadian amazon to get started then switch to usa amazon once successful. i am having better luck on usa amazon then on the cdn amazon and i am canadian. oh my is all i have to say. amazon has my 2nd book on free for 4 more days, share it well because amazon knowns how to make money.
April 01 2021
with the big 2 days snow storm, xena's ski-doo trail to WHO-ville drifted in which is normal. i used the Famous Black Cat to plow out the trail for her. this is the second time in 4 years that i have included a pictures of this sign. the fellow left town to become famous where as i came to town to be famous as a single parent of a daughter, on national TV around the world for 15 seconds of fame, now a famous 5 Star Love and Romance Author on global Amazon. i have done all this from my 10x30 shack down by the tracks in a gated community.
Mar 31 2021
15 years after i had my first book printed in 2006 it final became #1 in new releases on USA amazon which was a surprise. i had to bring the book out as a second edition with new book cover and ISBN number when my cdn publisher closed the door of his business due to government covid lock down rules. plus this is the only book of my 6 books on amazon that is not in the Love and Romance section. yesterday to celebrate my great success all by living in a 10x30 shack down by the tracks in a gated community. i did a little snow plowing with Thor the plow truck.
Mar 30 2021
we got a 2 day snow storm in the Kingdom which we sat and watched the whole thing through the windows in the house-office and the cameras. now today we will take Thor out for a little plowing to say we had a little fun. then it is back to working on my 4th book to be released.
Mar 29 2021
it was a busy day yesterday as a 5 star author plus i found out my books are for sale through walmart. now if i ever get to do a "book signing" at walmart i can also pick up the old-roy dog food for the 7 guard dogs that xena and i have protecting our assets.
Mar 28 2021
i am very pleased with "all" the 5 star ratings i am getting for my books on amazon which do not have the professional covers, they are not professionally edited, they are not on the amazon ad campaigns. these books are all done from a 10'x30' shack down by the tracks in a gated community all because of the covid 19 lock downs. so i think i am making the best of being locked down by bettering myself with my stories of the fun and difficult times i have had in my life. as a single parent of a daughter and published author plus on national TV for 15 seconds around the world. also these pictures were taken last night before bedtime and i woke up to my 6th book Love is Trust having another 5 star rating added over night.
Mar 27 2021
with my 3rd book the KoO Ladies at #2 in cdn amazon Love and Romance plus a 5 star rating on the usa amazon. it is time to get my 4th book finished and on amazon as an adventure book because having 4 books out of 6 in the Love and Romance section might bring love from a woman. who in the end will leave with my white suburban and flat screen TV as a parting gift like the other ladies in my life. the cover for my 4th book will be this picture of the TD-9 known as Bad Business by the crashed DC-3 which was a 20 mile drive across a frozen lake. not many people take a 60 year old cat in 2009 for that kind of a trip.
Mar 26 2021
oh my is all i have to say about my 3rd book getting a rating of 5 stars so quickly because of my writing style. i was drinking professionally when the stories were written over 10 years ago about the ladies in my life and how they teased me. some of the stories were written at the remote cabin which also created a lot of excellent pictures like this one. amazon has my 3rd book FREE on kindle Ebooks for the next 5 days so please enjoy and share it well.
Mar 25 2021
i needed a selfie picture and the staff took a few pictures but the shiny chrome mirror is in the way in most of the pictures. this summer it is on the to do list to paint over the chrome because chrome does not get you home or make you money in the frozen wastelands of the great white north. plus covid 19 lock downs are coming up to 1 year now and this might be the only picture or time i had my face covered because of the cold wind. plus having my nose covered with a scarf fogs up my trademark dark sun glasses too. it is a good thing the staff handles all the mail and shopping in the town of WHO-ville wearing her pantie mask to get in the buildings which they only allow 5 people at a time inside.
Mar 24 2021
well i am not sure what i did but the 3rd book was to be released on amazon on april fools day because i thought it was only fitting. but i must have clicked on the wrong button and the Ebook is on amazon now. i will tell everyone that the cover picture is some actor because no one will believe it is me in my poodle clothes.
Mar 23 2021
i was so focused on working on my 3rd book to get it released this month on amazon i forgot to take out the frozen OJ to thaw. while cooking (burning) frozen french fries in the oven at 450f for the guard dogs supper. i used the oven vent under the back stove element to thaw the frozen OJ.
Mar 22 2021
the 3rd book is getting close to being released after over 10 years in storage. i think it is best that the book "plates" for my 3&4 books were lost because they were only in rough copies when my publisher went out of business due to covid 19 lock downs. now i have taken my stories from memory sticks and organized them. the 3rd book in the King of Obsolete Book Series will be about my ladies and the 4th book will be about my adventures based from 2003-10. that way the 3rd book can be #1 in Love and Romance and the 4th book can be #1 in Adventures on Amazon.
Mar 21 2021
the winter roads have ended early because they were not really roads the government built with all the cut backs to the budget. now the scrap guy without his ladies loaded up the broken vehicles in the Kingdom from the winter road. it was a tight fit but they all fit.
Mar 20 2021
a Kingdom Follower in France sent me pictures of his TV while my 15 second of fame aired. not sure why the Hollywood film crew made me did the interview in the sunshine with my trademark glasses off which caused me to act like Dracula in the sun. it is a good thing i did not become a Porn Star because the Hollywood film crew would not always show my good features while filming.
Mar 19 2021
just another fun day in the Kingdom with at tandem lift for loading a D7R blade at +10c.
Mar 18 2021
for the first time in 3 years i put the tire chains on the forklift know as the Rut Maker. now i can dig deeper ruts and get stuck twice as deep. also i will have to buy a Bra because my man Boobies will be jiggling because the tire chains will make the ride so rough in the forklift.
Mar 17 2021
the scrap guy returned without his ladies and this time needed a little welding done on the truck because of the rough winter roads. i preformed the magic and it was all good for the scrap guy to do another round of fun on the winter road.
Mar 16 2021
i have decided to go ahead and release my 3rd book in the King of Obsolete Book Series which was written over 10 years ago. the book will be call the King of Obsolete's Ladies which will be all the stories of what these ladies did to me. yes they even shaved me up and dressed me in poodle clothes to show me off. waiting the 10 years to release the book was on the advice of my lawyer who is one of the best that advertises on TV after midnight.
Mar 15 2021
we had to unload a fancy southern truck on sunday which will be reloaded on to a winter road truck this week. not sure why the straw matting at the end of the world which has to be a southern thing.
also amazon has this book for FREE for the next 5 days Cat Train Newsletters : Second Edition eBook: Barnes, Joey: Amazon.ca: Kindle Store
May 23 2018
i asked my son xena to take a selfie for me because i can never do it right. tee shirts during the day and jackets on at night. welcome to the great white north.
