Goat Games

Someone asked me about a copy of “Goat Games”. That made me think. I can send a pdf copy of this book to anyone interested in it this month.

I am still trying to find how Draft2Digital works. Time slides away when I am in town.

There is one problem with offering “Goat Games” for free. It is only as a PDF. And only available through me.

If you want a free pdf copy of Goat Games, contact me through the Contact Page which is working according to the page service.

I am not online at home, so it may take me a few days to get the copy to you.

“Goat Games” is a pencil puzzle book and more about goats. There are lots of different kinds of puzzles. Some are hard.

There are also interviews with goat owners of fifteen different breeds of goats along with breed pages about those breeds. Plus trivia. Plus general information pages.

Upcoming Events

Smashwords has changed to Drafts2Digital. My account has moved. All of my book pages on the site appear to be working normally. I plan to offer “Edwina” as a free download in May.

April Camp NaNo has started. I am through the easy edit/rewrite part for Ship Nineteen in “The Carduan Chronicles: Arrival” novel. Now I’m into the rewrite section managing to redo a day or, if I’m lucky, two days each day. There are only 45 days to go in the novel.

“Life’s Rules” is on hiatus, but not forgotten. There are too many distractions in the spring.

Opal and Agate: Partners in Adventure is getting started as I work on the first picture book of the series and start the sketches.

Chemistry now has the shelf and light. Now I need to get those experiments done.

There is so much to get done. It all takes time.

Seed Planting Time

There are 25 new containers. The first six are filled and planted. Only five and a half still need gravel, dirt and compost. The others need a little more dirt and compost before getting seeds planted.

The Savoy cabbage is doing well under the mesh. No one seems to be chewing on them.

Broccoli and regular cabbage are under mesh in the next bed. They hope I get the mesh propped up soon.

I need spring to move in for good. There are twelve trays of tomato and pepper seedlings to carry out every warm day and carry back in every night.

The kids are now regulars on the trek out to pasture. They now have two Canada geese to watch. These have never stopped on the place before.

My present books are “A Natural History of Giraffes” and “The Butterfly Collector”. There are also more picture books, “Daddy Is a Doodlebug” and “Cat Secrets” this week.

You can keep up with my reading and reviews on Goodreads. As I finish each book, I take the time to write a review on Goodreads. Picture book reviews are on my Goodreads blog. It would be nice if those reading my books would do the same.

Finding My Picture Book Reviews

I really enjoy reading picture books. Often I just stop by and read one as I leave the library. If I tell Goodreads about a picture book, it adds it to my book challenge, messing that up and the average page count.

What I’m doing is putting the picture book reviews, usually two on Tuesday and two on Friday, on my Goodreads blog. You can find me on Goodreads under Karen GoatKeeper.

About GKP Books

I normally sell books through Amazon, Kindle and Smashwords as their sites are secure. Some books, and these are noted, are only available through me. Amazon and I have an ongoing dispute over listing “Asclepias” or any new books. Somehow I am not authorized to list anything new under my name? Some eBooks are too large or complicated for the other sites.

All of the links should be working. If you find one has decided to go on vacation, you can contact me through the now working Contact Page.

Thank you for Stopping By

Keep checking back as the topics on the two posts change every week, weather permitting. Impassable roads can delay things.
