That's from Krygowski who never backs up his own claims.

Like I told you before. I'm still a few days from the initial
publishing. It'll be on Amazon. Editing is a slow process. I'm
currently on page 101 of 273.

I write very fast and make a lot of mistakes, as you might have
noticed. I also read very fast. I skip over words when I have the idea
in my head. That means I have lots of editing to do.

Editing is not only looking for spelling and grammar errors, it's also
correcting the verbiage as in "can I write that better," or "can I
change that from a passive verb to an active one," or is there
something better left off, or added....

My earlier books are out of print, but you might be able to find a
used copy. Generally, those copies are way overpriced.

The earlier published books are under one of my earlier pen names,
"John Sailorman Parker." A play on words name selected by my wife. You
might find some of my very early writing under "Parker Soloman," but
those were never on Amazon and never had a ISBN. I think they've all
disappeared. Here's a couple of them while you're wasting for my book.

Angels
She believes in angels, and I believe in her.
I see them when she's sleeping,
although they're just a blur
they hover all around her
and sometimes stroke her hair
 and I hope to be there with them
when I'm no longer here.
--J Parker Soloman


Alzheimer's
There's naught behind his empty face, there's little there at all.
He can't recall a time when he could see beyond the wall.
The sun is never bright enough to reach into his mind,
to clarify the shadows that his racing thoughts might find.
 
Though even as he dares to seek a passage through,
the tangle of despair holds true   
The drumming of his painful strife plays on and on and on,
drowning out the music of a life that's come and gone.
--Parker Soloman 
 



 Look up "John Sailorman Parker" on Amazon.  There might be several
different versions of some of the books.

If you find one of those books, don't expect John Steinbeck. I am an
amateur writer and I do all my own editing, so there might still be
mistakes. I also make no effort at marketing. I refuse to make my
writing hobby into a business. Businesses make demands on people. I
write because I enjoy doing it.

Occasionally, I wander off into my old books and play with the
verbiage. I believe some of the stories are good enough for a major
editing and republishing under my new pen name, J. Soloman Heath.

No, that's not my real name either. I prefer being anonymous since I'm
not interested in recognition.

I've been told that my stories were better than my writing. I have
studied writing a bit since my earlier books and I think I am a better
writer now. That's my personal evaluation. You may disagree. The new
book will be very cheap.

If you don't like it, write a nasty review. I'm all grown up. I can
take it.
