There’s nothing that turns me off more than going to a blog and discovering that it’s all about self-promoting somebody’s book. Yet here I am self-promoting a collection of essays I just published. By my calculations, I’ve less than a dozen loyal readers, so I will only bother you this one time.
I just published a collection of essays titled “Rocky Mountain Pastels.” It’s available on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Rocky+Mountain+Pastels+by+Robert+Robinson
I would appreciate your support. Thank you.
Please forgive the intrusion. Rob
Well, you know I’m all in on this one. 🙂
🙂
Nothing like shameless self-promotion, Rob 😀 It’s the buzz of the times we live in 😀 Good luck with the book
Thanks. It still makes me feel funny. 🙂
It grows on one, people say 😀
🙂
Congratulations on this achievement, Rob. I’ll have your book in my hands soon.
Thanks, Janet. My neighbor’s got here yesterday. It was the first one I’d got a look at. It looks good.
Congrats!
Thanks so much. 🙂
Welcome!
Don’t apologize! That’s frickin’ AMAZING! Congratulations! I’m so happy for you! ❤
Thanks, Rachel. It’s good to hear from you.
Rob, your book was delivered yesterday. It has shelf appeal: if I were to see it in a bookstore, I’d pick it up and have a look. Thumbing through, I noticed some old friends I’ll get to experience again and some new that I’ll get to meet. Can’t wait to read it.
Thanks, Janet. Be sure to read the old friends; all of the essays were rewritten for the book. I appreciate your support more than you know. 🙂
Great! I´m happy for you Robert 🙂 !
Thank you. Have fun in Iceland. 🙂

This must be one of the quietest and humblest of self-promotions! Nobody would ever mind this! I’ll take a closer look and wonder what type of essays they are…congratulations. Always an achievement to self-publish!
The essays aren’t really about fly-fishing. That’s just the thread that holds them together. I published in April, but I had a heart attack in February and almost didn’t live to see the job through. The manuscript was with the editor when I tipped over. The big question now is . . . now what? 🙂
So sorry to hear about your heart attack. Hope you are much better. Do you have any other projects in mind? Best of luck…
Thanks. I’m doing okay. I’m still writing for fishing rags. I have a piece out in the current “Fly Rod & Reel”, and I’ve another that will be out in “Fly Fisherman Magazine” in September.
