The John Fresolo Saga Now Available as Hardcover

The John Fresolo Saga is Now Available in Hardcover at Amazon.com and by order at any bookstore.


Many thanks to Graphic designer, and long-time friend, Sarah Conti, who created the cover you see here, which adds a lot of punch to the layout. It's important when a book is on the shelf in the library or in the bookstore, that the cover reaches out to the reader. 

Combined sales of eBook and Paperback have reached 150 copies, according to my distributor. It's exciting to know that those readers will get the truth about how the state government used it's excessive powers to drive John Fresolo out of the House of Representatives.

The book, which took two years to write, exposes the conspiracy that manipulated a naive young statehouse staffer to make up false allegations, thus allowing the Speaker of the House to force a fake, kangaroo-court hearing with one goal in mind: embarrass the Representative with titillating charges that created exaggerated and misleading headlines that stretched from Boston to London.

If you read the book and like it, write a review at Barnes&Noble.com or at Amazon.com. If you didn't like the book, write to me at:

Reading Books From My Library

Retirement Means Time to Read

Why Atheism?
As President of NEB Publishing, I am very busy writing, editing, and publishing books, such as The World's Seven Biggest Liars. But, in fact, I'm retired from the corporate world and have more time to read than ever before. I am averaging a book a week and I report on most of my reading each week on my other blog: Life in Jefferson.

Over many years I have collected thousands of books, which I keep in my personal library. I have read most of them but I do have a large "waiting" list to read. By the way, if you want to read any of the books I report on, let me know. 

My current writing project is reaching the final edit stage. When I have a firm publishing date I will report that, but right now, it's hard to say when I'll finish.

The Country Bookseller Celebrates 25 Years

Shelf Awareness Comments on The Country Bookseller

I enjoy the updates that Shelf Awareness provides on the independent bookseller all across the country. Today's issue commented on the 25th Birthday Celebration of one of my favorite bookstores: The Country Bookseller in Wolfeboro, NH. We spend a week at nearby Laconia each summer and I'm always happy to stop into The Country Bookseller.
From: Shelf Awareness:
Congratulations to the Country Bookseller, Wolfeboro, N.H., which celebrated its 25th anniversary yesterday. A message posted on the store's website said, "We know without a doubt, we couldn't have done it without you! From midnight Harry Potter releases to moving a whole store across town, you've been with us every step of the way. To our sales reps, our staff, our fellow businesses, and the community that has welcomed us with open arms THANK YOU!"
In addition, the Country Bookseller shared a staff favorites list, noting: "As hard as it was, we've compiled a list of our top 25 titles over the last 25 years. Stop by the store to chat with us about your favorites or find out more about ours! (Okay, there may be a few more than 25...)."
If you are near Wolfeboro this summer, be sure to stop in and congratulate The Country Bookseller for defying the odds and keeping the independent bookstore alive and well.

Books Are Important To Me at NEB Publishing

Jefferson, MA - Books are important to me. I read a lot of books, mostly non-fiction, as entertainment in some cases, and for the education or information, they bring me in other cases. I also write books, magazine articles, blogs, and other publications because I have strong views on some things that I want to share.

I can also help you publish your book. Contact me if you want help with any aspect of publishing your book. Use the message link below.

I also have a fascination with bookstores, and in particular, for used book outlets. I really can't afford to spend current New York Times bestseller prices on a weekly basis. But, I can spend from $2 to $5 at my local library or one of my favorite nearby bookstores to satisfy my craving for something to read.

I have not really adopted the eBook method of reading. I seem to need the book in my hand, even though I have little trouble with newspapers online, blogs, Facebook, etc. I can handle the electronic stuff - short of reading a book. Not sure why that is; but, there it is.

I write two blogs. The original is The Books of Richard F. Wright, (which you are reading right now) and which is updated on a leisurely basis over time. The other blog, Life in Jefferson, is a bit more disciplined, as it tries to appear each week, chronicling, as it were, how I'm spending my time now that I'm retired formally from the corporate world. Both of these blogs test my determination to write continuously. 

My other writing effort has been devoted to producing the three books that have been published under my independent publishing mark, NEB Publishing (New England Bookstore Publishing). These three books are available variously on the Barnes and Noble website and Amazon.com website. It's been exciting to have these books out in the public eye where people I don't know can take time to make a comment or make an inquiry. It's been a lot of fun. Now that I'm retired, I have more time to work on more projects, which is what I'm doing now.

My Author's Page on Amazon lists the books that are available as Paperback or eBook.

My next book has been in development for about a year. It's an investigative piece, with a strong political attack angle to it. I'm independently investigating what I view has been a miscarriage of justice, or if not that, miscarriage of fairness. I won't reveal any more here as I still have more interviews to conduct and the less known about specifics, the better it will be for me to get the job done.

Finally, on the Life in Jefferson blog, I routinely list the book or two I read that week and provide a small synopsis of the subject. If you want to read any of the books I mention, let me know. I own all of them. I own every book I ever read. My wife is expressing some concern about that, but that's a story for another day.
