I am a writer. My works are featured and sold at amazon.com through book sales. I have a few locations where I can be found on the internet but no website per se for any good reason of my works yet. Principally, following me on to Facebook (at Facebook.com/redcrosse10999), links visitors to other sites that are basically the same redundancy as the Facebook location. I hope to have a redcrosse10999.com website someday, but that isn't in my immediate plans at this time. (Meanwhile, you may visit my other blogs at both brutimperialantarctica.blogspot.com -- which is a Blogger site by Google & also at brutimperialantarctica.wordpress.com -- which is another native of WordPress, which I believe may also be a Google company. But my Facebook page has a sidebar link set that will help you navigate to other pages which may or may not be included links on any of these (interesting) blogs. Have a happy day! (I wish I had an emoji for this bio. Very little else is interesting with me.)
