Yes…I’ve just completed this project, managing to wade through the complexities of self-publishing using Amazon KDP, and am happy to announce that my book of short stories (twelve in all), “All Roads at Any Time”…has been published in paperback form, and is now available for purchase.
What’s it about? Here’s a little descriptive from the back cover:
“This collection shares the experiences of a young long-haired wanderer dodging mass murderers, muggings, revolutions, drug overdoses and other narrow escapes in the 70’s, to the unexpected heroics of a New Wave dilettante in Ottawa, and young dad in Vancouver in the 80’s. It navigates its way through some of the unanticipated side-effects of the long journey to sobriety, and ultimately drops you off on a sweet island of bliss and healing in the current era.”
Writing, which I enjoy, was the easy part. Formatting a WordDoc and cover design were beyond my ken, and I was saved from these struggles by Deborah Strong and Teresa Gustafson of TG Design respectively – for which I am most grateful.
I haven’t yet started work on the eBook version, or the Audiobook, but if you’d like to pick up a paperback copy of “All Roads at Any Time”, there are currently 3 ways to do so. The first way, would be to go to Amazon and buy it directly, just click this link:
Or, copies will be available at Shavasana Gallery & Café https://shavasana.ca/ a little Gallery Café that I run on Mayne Island, B.C. at 457 Village Bay Road (usually open Saturday through Monday)…I was surprised and delighted to see this happen last weekend when I put out a stack of books:
Or, thirdly, you could order a copy (or copies) through me and I will get it to you either directly (if we are in close proximity), or via mail. The book is $19.95 Canadian and I imagine postage will be $4 or $5 (I haven’t calculated that yet). To reach me directly you can either send me a message through this website, or via email at: gbathgate@telus.net , or give me a call or text at: 604-418-3846.
Cheers! …and happy reading!
