Volume 2- Johnny Dreamcatcher and the Sixteen Stones of Washaktoon

What a title. Believe it or not, Washaktoon is an actual ancient city in Belize that literally means "eight white stones" and from this city I based the premise of book two in the Johnny Dreamcatcher series. You may be asking yourself why then is the book called the "...sixteen stones..." well, that is where the story begins as Johnny's great grandfather is sent to find the sixteen stones. It is an epic adventure that closes the gap between Johnny and his great grandfather forever as he travels back in time to join his great grandfather in the adventure of a lifetime.

Now the real work begins

I remember being told that getting the book published was the easy part. The hard part is getting people to buy and find your book. So...this is what I am doing every evening as I strive to find new avenues to get my book out there. It is not the easiest thing I've ever done, but again nothing worth while is ever easy. I am reminded of the first summer football camp I attended as a freshman in high school. I was in great shape, but I used muscles I had not ever used before, by the third day I was so sore I could hardly walk, but by the end of the first week I was ready to go and did not experience any more sore days other then when I absorbed hits because I thought my 120lb frame could take it... I digress, I am open to suggestions from anyone on ideas to bring this book to the masses and allow more people the opportunity to read what I consider to be a great book.

Finally the Book is available

Johnny Dreamcatcher and the World of Dreams is now available at www.johnnydreamcatcher.com as well as Amazon Kindle. It seems these last few weeks have just dragged on as I awaited the books printing and now distribution. For those who helped along the way, thank you! Dave

Three Days until the Book is Available

It is hard to believe that the day for my book to arrive at the warehouse is on Tuesday the 9th of October. This is a special day in two ways. It is my wife's birthday. Happy Birthday Jan. And it is the day the trucking company delivers the books...!!! Exciting! I hope I sleep the next few days.

Actually Printing

Whew! Details, details, this is what I've been asked for...so this is what I will give. Maughan-Thyme Publishing, LLC is please to announce that the first edition printing of Johnny Dreamcatcher and the World of Dreams is officially on the printing press...so to speak. It is being printed digitally in Michigan and then will be shipped to the fulfillment center(IntegraCore) in West Jordan, Utah. The website www.johnnydreamcatcher.com will be turned on the day after the books arrive. Then at this time, you can log into the website and order the book. The fulfillment center will then ship the book within 24 hours.
We are excited to have this important step/hurdle crossed.

Thank you for your patience, this has been a much longer process than expected. But it will be worth the wait. I promise to notify the day the books arrive.

Final Editing Stages

Great News!

Johnny Dreamcatcher is in the final editing stages, a few minor tweaks requested by the editor and then one more push through. Once the editing is finished, I will turn on the website which will allow for the pre-purchase of the first edition. I will personally sign all first edition copies before the ditribution center ships them out to you.
