Thanks to all of you who upheld us with your prayers leading up to and during Donna’s surgery. She came through in fine style and her sciatic nerve pain is GONE!!!
We are rejoicing at God’s blessing, and now look forward to walks together again as well as the possibility of another Rocky Mountain exploration trip!!! (Any cat sitters out there?)
Praise Him from Whom all blessings flow!

Hi all; my wife and best friend for nearly 48 years is scheduled for back surgery on the 23rd of Jan at 11:10 in Toledo.
We’ll take all the prayers we can get! This is outpatient surgery to (hopefully) remove the intense back pain she has been fighting for way too long.
Thanks so much, I’ll post updates here as is appropriate.
Many blessings,
Will

Wow, can it be Christmas of 2011 already? I’m currently in the middle of preparations for Donna’s (wife) surgery on her back.
My efforts to write have been fruitless because the nature of her injury problems have dulled my desire to do anything other than care for the needs here.
I have changed the direction of the story in my current number one project twice now, and I think I finally have the next steps down in my twisted little mind.
This coming week gets me back to the laptop with a definite direction so hang on, fans, life she is a startin’ back up!
Meanwhile, I pray for everyone a wonderful Christmas as we remember the world-changing event that pointed us toward Easter 33 years later and by that act of consummate love, pointed us toward heaven!!!
Praise Him from Whom all blessings flow!

Wow, can it really be June already? I have been a lazy bum as far as the writing goes! It isn’t that I haven’t had the time; goodness no. Life has been a real zoo here, but that is no excuse for not taking pen (or laptop) in hand during the morning hours.
Truth be told, I’ve let the fire go out for a while. I certainly apologize for that, and promise it will not continue!
I’m working on two books at once right now; a fourth western in the Odyssey series and the futuristic Christian fiction novel.
The latter is in the 10th chapter now, and is starting to write itself, whether I want it to or not! I’m not ready for some of the things going on there!!!
The western is simply a fetus at the present, with just two chapters written the way I want them.
So…please be patient, I promise to be more diligent in the very near future!
Blessings,
Ole Will Riley

It’s been way too long since I caught you up on the activities at the Hinton ranch, (all .3 acres of it!) so here’s a bit of drivel for you.
My writing efforts have been marginal at best, life has been in the way!
My dear mother in law fell a month back so we’ve been on the road more than we’ve been home as she lives 40 miles away. (She’s 97!!)
When I do set down and write, I’m currently working on two books; a futuristic Christian fiction, and Rocky Mountain Odyssey number four.
The western I work on in waiting rooms at the hospital, doctors offices and the like. That’s being handwritten at this time. (That means I have to decipher my terrible handwriting and type it in later on!! That, dear readers, is a daunting task!)
I hope to make another Rocky Mountain trip soon, providing we can find a reliable cat-sitter, and get pumped for more writing enthusiasm. Both current books are set in the Rockies. (Where else?)
So, you all have a great year, and may God richly bless each and every one of you.
In Him,
Will

I want to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt thanks to those of you who visit this site regularly and who have purchased my books.
May you have the best holiday season yet, and yes, I mean CHRISTmas, He is not only the reason for the season, He is the reason for LIFE!
God bless you all.
Will

I, along with author friends Mary Mueller and Josh Clark, both White Feather Press authors just came through a week at the Fulton County fair near Wauseon, Ohio.

It was so very exciting to meet many readers who have read some of our works!  Yes, we did arrange for the booth in order to sell books, but without readers, that doesn’t happen and it was wonderful to meet and greet so many readers who have been so kind.

I sold more of my first book, Lonely Are The Hunted, than either of the others.  Those who had never read my work before wanted to test the waters, and as a result, sales for the other two have been picking up.  This is truly a thrill for me.

Thank you to all my readers, God blesses me through you!  I’ve taken several weeks off from writing since submitting Shadow of Vengeance to White Feather Press, but now I’m geared up again and ready to go back to work!  Stand back, here we go again, this time with a futuristic Christian fiction adventure.  Then it will be back to the westerns.

Shalom,

Will

Hello All,
The cover art for Shadow of Vengeance is done and it’s the very best yet!! Skip has really outdone himself this time!! The best word for it is, “Wow!”
It looks like the books should be available by the end of July.
Other news, the other two novels in the series are now available on amazon.com, including on kindle!
White Feather Press is doing a lot of hard work to make these available and to get the names of their authors out to the general public in a meaningful way.
Check out the possible titles at amazon.com and see how they’re doing.
Will

It’s finished! (As far as I can go.) Shadow of Vengeance, book three of the Rocky Mountain Odyssey series is written, edited, proofread, and now rests in the capable hands of White Feather Press.
They are really busy, so with cover design etc. ahead of them, I can’t tell you when to expect it to be released. I will, however, be sure and let you know here as soon as I know the date.

If you want a personal email about the release date, be sure and email me your address through this website and I’ll add you to my special address book for my readers.
God bless,
Will Riley
