"Collected" an IGNORED book by Leslie Moore

While The Big Books of Wildcats and Taylor and being received in such a positive light, one of my books has fallen through the cracks. I'm hoping that you will take another look at the preview pages of this Kindle book on Amazon.

Why, you ask, am I writing this blog? Well, in my mind, this was the book I worked hardest to make 'good.' It's got a great body swap, some swash-buckling characters, a nice love story, and a happy ending. It even has a talking AI.

Thanks for humoring me.

Collected: A Time Travel Story Of The Twenty-Fifth Century

Hey, Gang!

Collected was published this spring and Just In Case you missed it, here's another pedantic plug for Leslie Moore Industries where they're stamping out new novels every day (just as soon as we get this chimps typing again!).

Thank You

Thank you to all those people who have taken a look at Collected on Amazon. I really appreciate your time and energy. I worked really hard to make it my best work.

BTW: I am in the process of reworking Terry and the Wildcats, Wildcats 1, Wildcats 2, Wildcats 3, and Wildcats 4.

I also have a new Wildcats 5 and Wildcats 6 that will be added to the entire collection and republished as The Big Book Of Wildcats, all 1,500 pages of Wildcats. The whole thing should be up and available in September and will cost less than two books, at $4.99

thank you for your help

I want to thank all the readers for taking the time to read the first two parts of my novella, Taylor, and offering wonderful constructive criticism on how to make it better.**

When it's finished here, I will start again and make it a complete novel before I present it to Erin and the wonderful folks at Big Closet to publish and receive all the receipts. It's my way of saying thank you to Big Closet for everything they do to promote authors.

Something New on the Horizon

Greetings!

It’s been a while. Maybe I got lost or stopped just to think things over.

I’ve had trouble finishing projects that I started, and time seemed to pass around me. But, last night, I uploaded a new book to Amazon called Collected. It should be available soon. I’ve got a novella to share here next that I hope to turn into a complete novel. If it all comes to fruition, I want to donate the money.

Peace,

Leslie

An Update

Hi, All.

I haven't blogged in a while. I've been spending my time writing.

I've got a new novel ready to publish on Amazon in January called Collected. It's a sci-fi story.

I've been working on retelling the Wildcats, starting with book one and ending with book six. Book five and book six are new. I just finished my first draft and it's 360,000 words. I've rewritten the story trying to smooth out the entire epic. It will be published in 2020.

Happy Holidays,

LM

Just Venting About An Amazon Review

Just a brief vent and maybe an update...

Here's my vent. First, I appreciate all the people who take the time to review Leslie Moore books. I read each one and try to learn. But sometimes, I get confused. Here's an example

Kindle Customer
4.0 out of 5 stars

"It's more about Jesica herself and not her adventures"
June 27, 2019
Format: Kindle Edition
Overall it was a good read but I have some minor criticisms.

“Sit down, Teri. It’s good to see you.”

I straightened my skirt, making sure I smoothed it before I sat. I wondered just how wrinkled it would be when I stood up.

“How are you doing?”

“Fine, sir. Just fine.”

“How’s Juliet?”

I frowned. “Juliet, sir? The last time I saw her was at the lawyer’s office. That was seven months ago. I see the kids once a week, but I have to pick them up at her mother’s house.”

My boss frowned. “I’m sorry. I just saw the ring and, well, thought the two of you were trying to work things out.”

a note from the author:

I wanted to mark the publishing of Wildcats 4: A Rock n Roll Odyssey as a Kindle Book, so I penned this one in it’s honor.

Chapter One

Taylor stood in front of the full-length mirror evaluating herself.

It was ironic how she used any flat reflective surface just to audit her look. Recently, she’d become much more aware of how her presence affected her world. A smile towards a stranger on the street elicited a returned look of warmth and approval.

Artificial Intelligence and Some Questions For Y'all

I’m working on NeverWorld, a sci-fi future story and I’m trying to design an Artificial Intelligence that would narrate part of my story and be the one who runs NeverWorld, an alternative interactive world.

I've written down some questions and hoping to start a discussion here, if anyone has the time. Here are my thoughts.

Dealing with the dark side

A discussion inside Wildcats 4 has touched on a topic that I thought others might want to weigh in and share their opinion.

The topic of whether a young adult novel should deal with a harsh or a gentle reality. The thought that dealing with sex, drugs, and violence should be dealt with or avoided so as not to become an influencer (love that word, BTW).

How do you approach these topics knowing full well that kids read coming of age stories and use them as bibliotherapy (look that one up)?

Jessica Jade - Metamorphosis is on Amazon

Finally, as they pried the last manuscript from my stiff, swollen fingers, I cried out! "Please let me look through it one more time, I know I can make it better!"

But, to my chagrin, they took it away and posted it on Amazon

Here's a link. Order it here and BigCloset gets a few pennies. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LDW3G8D/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=...

Chicken Fingers

Emily started crying. We were eating dinner. I looked over, and everyone was crying. I didn't know why. We had chicken fingers.

Mom just sat there with tears rolling down her face. It was a mad face.

Dad had a worried face. He kept wiping his eyes, and black smudges started to appear. He looked like a raccoon.

Technical Gaps Need Filling

I’d like to chat with a few folks who have a sense/knowledge/expertise in creating gaming environments. I’m not creating one, just writing a story.

I need help with the technical stuff, terms, jargon, etc for a new SciFi story I’m working on called NeverWorld.

I’m also looking for someone who can help me with the Japanese anime, manga, hentai world, too.

Copy. Cure. Second Edition is available!

I just wanted to announce that Amazon approved sending email notices to all of you who had purchased "Copy. Cure. - a Nanotechnology Adventure" to get a free copy of the second edition.

I listened to what my reviewers said, (except the one who equated me with porn!) and went back and reworked the whole text to reflect a smoother, less redundant tale. It's still chock full (whatever that means!) of an interesting story with better flow and description. I've tried my best to eliminate the road bumps. I hope if you bought a copy, you'll download your free updated copy.

A New Version of Nanites, Copy.Cure. is now a Kindle Book!

Copy Cure Cover.jpg

Last year, I uploaded a story here called 'Nanites' (27,000 words). After it ran, I received excellent constructive criticism from our readers. I rewrote it and made it a novel (70,000 words). It just went up on Amazon today and I am very proud of it.

A Staycation Contest Entry

Max Williams smiled when he saw it was his mom calling. It was always great to talk to her. Since she remarried, she’d never been happier.

“Hey, mom. What’s up?”

“Hi, sweetie. How are you doing?”

“I’m great. When are you coming up to visit again?”

“Honey, Henry and I are passing thru in the night. We’re headed up to New York City for the Spring and then we’re flying over to Greece for a cruise. I was hoping you’d do me a favor.”

“Sure. Just say the word.”

Metamorphosis - A Jessica Jade Story

Thank you to all the readers and future readers who are peeking in on Metamorphosis - A Jessica Jade Story. I appreciate all the comments and messages you are sending me as I post two chapters a week.

I appreciate Erin making BigCloset a writer's showcase to present new works. It's giving me an opportunity to hear great feedback and wonderful constructive criticism from many talented writers and fans.

Blog Entries - from the heart versus Blatant Commercial Propaganda

Okay, so don't get me wrong. I'm not taking a side here and I don't know how many people actually read the blogs. (Is there a counter somewhere?)

But, here's a money generating scheme to shore up BigCloset.

Need some advice

I got carried away.

I posted Wildcats Prequel Chapter 4 last week and got so excited on how neat it looked that I posted Wildcats Prequel 5. I thought it would be cool to give the readers a “Two For One” to celebrate Memorial Day.

I didn’t realize a BigCloset rule is that’s a no-no. I talked to Erin and she tried to intervene but the Rule God’s won.

So, half the readers missed chapter four. I feel bad. Ant suggestions besides, “Give me a break, just get over it!”

Happy Memorial Day

My Best Wishes go out to all who have served or are serving. My Best Wishes go out to all first responders or former first responders. My Best Wishes go out to all who have taught, counseled, or cared for our children, now or in the past.

I was posting another chapter of Wildcats Prequel today and decided since we have a long weekend ahead to post another chapter, too.

I hope you are enjoying the new story and are looking forward to Wildcats 3 coming out as another Kindle Book in June.

Where in the World is Leslie Moore?

Since no one asked, I thought I'd bring it up. The answer is very simple. I have been working on a new novel and it's pretty close to finished. The working title is "Metamorphosis - A Jessica Jade Story".

If you read the Wildcats, published one chapter at a time on BigCloset last year and now available on Amazon, we meet Jessica in what is now Book 3, coming soon to Amazon. (If you haven't read Wildcats, this new novel will still hopefully make sense and entertain.)

Asking for a favor

I was just on a book review site called Goodreads.

A good friend sent me a link to their page featuring Wildcats.

So here is the favor. If you read Wildcats and liked it and you are a member of Goodreads, would you please go on and add a review about the book. I am asking for me and BigCloset since Wildcats is being published by Doppler Press. So, the more people that read the book through Kindle Unlimited or buy the book on an Amazon download will be helping Erin and this site.

Here is the link. Thanks, Leslie

too much too fast?

I was away working for the past ten days. I had a lot of free evenings and while I couldn't upload to BigCloset I did a lot of writing.

I apologize for posting multiple things this week instead of stringing things out.

I was overdue for Portrait 6 and wanted to get it up and away before I started thinking about 7, 8, and 9.

Because Wildcats was published on Amazon almost two weeks ago, it was important to get the Wildcats short story up to remind everyone that Wildcats was birthed here.
