Yes, I do more than just blog. I have a life outside the laptop, filled with activities that enhance my daily existence. In retirement, I spend my days trying new hobbies that I didn’t have time for during my working years. This phase of life lets me enjoy quality time with my wonderful wife, sharing joyful moments and appreciating the little things. We’ve made our home a cozy place to host friends and family, creating lasting memories. My workshop is a space for creativity, where I work on woodworking projects that show my personality. I enjoy all the benefits of retirement, relishing the freedom to choose how I spend my time without job constraints or the need for consistent income, allowing me to focus on what I truly love.

Sometime in the first part of this year we were visiting some friends and during that time I had to use the facilities. I noticed that he had a small collection of small paperbacks on a shelf in the restroom. I said to him that I noticed that there was a collection of small books and I asked him what kind of books he uses for the short time of personal business. He replied. “I like a collection of short stories. Just enough to pass the time and nothing deep and long.” I then had the thought, “I can do that!”

Since that time, I have been creating small paperbacks of around 100 pages and a variety of different topics by keeping with my blogging agenda, “Comments About Anything“. I also discovered about Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing. This works perfectly for me. The only investment I have is my time. No financial investment whatsoever. If they don’t sell, no loss whatsoever.

I just finished book four and really enjoying this new challenge. They are only $4.75 for paperback, free thru the 24th and then $2.99 for Kindle and $0.00 if a Kindle Unlimited subscriber.
