Under the Lone Pine Chapbook

I created a new chapbook of my poetry with a Las Vegas/Southwest bent. All of the pieces reflect on my time in the northern Mojave desert either living in Las Vegas or central California.

This area holds a major pull on my imagination, especially the arid southwest. I am continually amazed at how much life I find in my travels and how hot it can get!

I published the chapbook myself, and through CreateSpace. This also led me to a Kindle version.

Which reminds me: Kindle users can get a free copy of the chapbook for a limited time through an Amazon contest. Find the link here: https://giveaway.amazon.com/p/1615e12da634cd1f

The CreateSpace version is still being proofed, so I will update you when that is ready. I'm sending personalized copies to my family that I am printing and putting together myself. I will send you one too for 1 SBD transferred to @wordymouth with the memo "chapbook". I will sign it and dedicate it to you or a friend.

Thanks to everyone who supports my poetry found here on Steemit.

Depending where you're at it could be any mountain pine. This one is near Lone Pine in the Sierra Nevada.
