Ahoy, mates one and all!

My first book, Characters: The Buffalo Soldier and Other Poems is finally out for purchase! It will be available on Amazon.Com in about six weeks or ye can buy a copy at http://stores.lulu.com/Blackbead. Or you can go to me website, http://www.Blackbead-jewelry.com , and follow the links. The poems are varied but the book does contain "The Homecoming of Danny Fry," a poem about a pirate leaving the sweet trade for the easy life in the village he grew up in and the effect that his return has on his neighbors. Thank you for considering me work!

Red Bess and Joe,

Ahoy there, and thank you both for your kind words! I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner but I failed to do a search for the latest postings since I logged on. I've sold several copies of the book so far but I've just recently done a "black and white" version which reduces the cost to only $7 a copy! It doesn't include the pictures but I think most people are going to want to read the poems, not look at the pictures.

I've also come up with an idea . . . how many other pirate poets do you think there are on the forum? Do you think anyone would be interested in compilation book of pirate poems? Let's see . . .
