    Bill Sheehy

    A prolific writer, I have a number of western stories and crime mysteries published in the old fashioned way, paper and ink, and am now moving some of those stories into eBooks. As time goes by I'll format all or some of these as well as a major SF saga and at least one if not two non-fiction works. Stay tuned and make a note of my name so you can search for it and my stories. Remember ... Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it. P.J. O'Rourke
