Writing is great but being published is even greater!

Hi, everyone! To all my Facebook friends interested in the world of writing, please visit me on my web site: www.nolancarlson.com I have been a published writer for over 30 years and been to over 200 schools throughout the midwest presenting programs on reading as well as my books. I have been published by Berkeley Pub. Group of New York and sold books to E.P. Dutton. Presently my young adult books are being published by Vintage Publishing out of South Carolina www.vrpublishing.com I would be glad to share the trials and tribulations of writing plus the final success. Just let me know if you would like for me to share with you. Nolan Carlson

New Face Book Friends

A warm hello to all of my new Facebook friends. I hope many of you like to read. I like to read as well as write. I have been a published author for over 30 years and have enjoyed some success. I have had 19 books published so far. I also like to read. I just finished reading two great novels by Ken Follett. The first one was about 1,100 pages and titled Pillars of the Earth and the sequel was World Without End and had 1,100 pages. I read that one twice. I also love football and spend most of Sat. and Sun. watching it during football season. Please visit me at www.nolancarlson.com Take care. Nolan

Good books for reluctant middle school readers

This series is great for reluctant middle school male readers. I have been told that by teachers, parents, and the kids themselves. They seem to love the series and put down the remote on their video games.

Presenting at Riley County Jail Literacy Class

Had a great time presenting to the inmates at the Riley County Jail in Manhattan, Ks. on Thursday, Nov. 5th. The guys in orange jump suits were attentive, polite, and interacted with interest. I gave a presentation two years ago and enjoyed myself at that time as well. Many of them were very well read. I was impressed!
