Treischel: I am popping in intermittently, as I am pulling together my Animated Stills book, that I hope to have published by this Fall. Concurrently, any new poems that I post here are for then next book after that, which will be a book about poetic formats. So bear with me as come and go.

Treischel: Hello, and Happy New Year to all my fellow Fanstorians.

I will be back on for a while again no,w as I'm working on my book of formats, trying to catch those that I needs to write a second example of. I'll likely also publish a book this year about Quatrains, the major poetic stanza, along with several variations on rhyme and Metre.

Hope to see all my old friends and looking forward to meeting new ones.

Treischel: Haven't been very active lately because lot's going on. Been posting on Youtube, am updating my blog and facebook page,. Most exciting of all, I finally published my 4th book, a book of Sonnets. Its 385 pages, containing 74 Sonnet variations, with 170 total Sonnets, and descriptions. The book is called Take Flight, The Sonnets and is listed on my profile at the bottom. All the poems were reviewed here first by my fans. Also, several Fanstory members are noted in the book for formats that they created: Jim Bartlett (Pantygynt), Stephen A Carter, Catherine Ginn (I Am Cat), Nancy E Davis, Jyoti. I also acknowledged helpful suggetions from Dean Kuch, Sandra Mitchell, Tony Fawcus, and Gungalo. I'lll now be busy with Book signings and interviews.

Treischel: I recently published my third book. My first two were published by Outskirt's Press and retailed for $53 and $59 in hardback each. My third one was published but LitFire Publishing and retails for $29.99 in hardcover and $17.99 in paperback. So I had the first two republished by LitFire at those same prices. I even got an author's website. Check it out at reischelsreflections.com

Treischel: I've been busy lately meeting a publishing deadline, so my poetry and reviewing have suffered. I got my third book off to the publisher yesterday, 5/23/2016 at around 4:00 PM.

Treischel: Thanks for inviting me to the Project. Do I just post like normal?

Treischel: Wow! Amazon has dropped the price of my first book from $56 to $5.86. What a bargain. Now is a great time to buy it. The green one.

Treischel: My wife is having a full knee replacement surgery today. All prayers welcome. Also, I will be tied up helping her recovery, so my poetry my pay suffer. Please be patient.

Treischel: Wow! I can"t believe that I finally won a second place finish in a committee sponsored contest. After entering nearly 100 over the last 3 years. This is the first time I got some recognition and got $25 dollars. I am most pleased.
