More Than a Million Pages! Infinite Thanks!

Kindle Unlimited members have read more than a million pages of my books.

In fact, readers have sent the number well beyond the seven-figure mark and 2026 has recorded even higher numbers than previous years. (Kindle Unlimited is a monthly subscription program that allows free access to books online at Amazon.)

These figures do not include books that non-members have ordered, downloaded, or picked up in bookstores. I could never have imagined such support and interest in my work. My books would have to be around a long, long time to reach Stephen King levels, but I continue to be more grateful than you can imagine.

I have not done this alone. It was my wife Sue’s idea to walk the Camino, which was our first trek, and her cover design, editing, photography, and artwork that elevated my drafts to books readers choose.

Wendy Tells Her Followers: ‘Just Go’

Who travels alone to the Yukon, camps by herself in Oregon and Canada, and has 500,000 followers of her YouTube channel?

Her name is Wendy Eden. She promotes her age of 77 and urges her viewers of all ages to “just go!” She is one of my favorite YouTubers because her simple, captivating presentations and folksy personality make me want to tune in for every broadcast.
