I’m Ron Lewis, a writer of tales, and have done so most of my life. About twenty years ago, I dipped my toe back into the writers’ pool. Using various pen names, I published at SOL to reacquaint myself with the art of putting words on paper. Slowing, honing my skills until I was ready to sell work.
For a period, I bowed out of SOL. And as you can see, I haven’t put up much on SOL or Story Room. I’m going to turn 72 in September this year, and I’ve given my notice to retire to the owners of the business I manage. By now, 20 years with them, I’m betting they’re happy to be shed of me.
Unfortunately, because of events before I took my current position, I no longer have the retirement I had from a previous position. The company I work for doesn’t have a retirement plan. So, I’ll be living off Social Security and my wife’s meager income from her part-time employment. Leaving us scrambling to increase our side income from her online businesses and my writing and editing.
Not your problem, I dug the hole, now I have to climb out of it. One reason I haven’t published much on this site is that I make money from my writing. It seems counterproductive to give away what people pay for.
However, I’ll be publishing stories that have run their course in the sales stream on SOL and Story Room going forward. But I certainly will appreciate every sale made on Bookapy and ZBookStore. I also hope to put up work on those sites, along with Amazon, as often as I can.
I’ve been remiss about posting any kind of blog. I’ll try to do better from now on.
I'm currently posting the eight parts of Michelle Tanner: Going West, here on Story Room one at a time. I expect to post a new parts twice a month.
