One of my dreams is to write the great american novel....well actually not that grandiose of novel, but at least get a novel published along with some short stories.
I guess you can say I'm a wannabe writer.
Here's where you come in. I recently published two short articles in the RV-Dreams Lifestyles Magazine. Please take a few minutes to read the stories and provide a review, let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance for your help.... it will be appreciated.

Hi Bear , I thought the stories were very informative and well written, my only question is this the format or genre that you have a passion for, or do you plan to just write about various subjects? Gummy

Thanks for the review.
I've always considered myself a jack of all trades master of some sort of guy. So I have lots of interests.
For some reason the Owens Valley/ Hwy 395 corridor area of California has always held a fascination for me. It's such a remote area and yet is full of history and natural wonders.
I plan to take the stories about the salt tram, Owens lake, Cerro Gordo mine and create a murder mystery centered around the building of the tram system and a plane crash on the dry lake.
I do have a Sci-Fi novel in the works and like to read fictional books with a non-fiction feel, like books by Clive Cussler, Tom Clancy, Dean Koontz and even Stephen King. These guys tend to throw a lot of local history into their stories so the books read more like actual events.
I like this genre of fiction, so I plan to start with these types of books/stories and see where it leads me. I also plan to write short stories and articles about RV related technical information, travel & destinations.
