Hiking Southwest Utah and Adjacent Areas, Volume Three wins literary award

I think we can all agree that nature and outdoor activity are winners. I’m fortunate that my hiking book, Hiking Southwest Utah and Adjacent Areas, Volume Three, recently won a Silver Quill Award (2^nd Place) in the non-fiction category of the 2021 League of Utah Writers Published Book Contest.

I believe this award is due mostly to the incredible areas my wife Deb and I hike. I’m occasionally able to capture nature’s wonders in words and photos. If you are…

My hiking book is now available at Zion National Park (Utah)

We all like to think our writing, however wonderful, also has commercial value. My recently published hiking book Hiking Southwest Utah and Adjacent Areas has a dozen or so online sales each month—not bad. Now, thanks to the Zion National Park Foundation, my hiking guide is available at Zion National Park Visitor Center.

Zion has approximately three million visitors per year. While they don’t all check out the visitor center, tens (hundreds?) of thousands do. I imagine…

Review: 30.5 by Sudè Khanian

You may recognize Ms. Khanian from the "One" series. Her story is going to debut this month and it is worth considerably more than the 99 Cent cost.

Well, 30.5 is the reason I wanted her to be a part of the "One" series.

30.5 is a collection of 31 reflectional fiction stories influenced by the author’s vaguest view point of the universe and her autobiography.

It is much more than a collection. Each story is, in a… Continue
