Benton's Books

I have updated my survival site and added about 20 more pages with items pertaining to how to tie knots, ground to air signals, first aid, and a little more. The section on knots is, I think, about 5 pages of the most common knots used in the field. The signal stuff is general signals and how to lay them out so they can been seen by aircraft. The first aid pages are how to apply bandages and wrap injuries.

I hope everone is have a great Holiday...I'm just kicking back, working on some things I ENJOY doing and relaxing. This time of the year it is hard for me to write much....but I have a little. Seems I don't have as much interest, though I have four books unfinished...LOL. I'll start on them after the new year.

My Vietnam novel, "It Don't Mean Nothin'" needs to get done first. I've been working on it for over a year and that is too long....after serving in Southeast Asia, I just don't have much desire to write about that part of the world, even if the book is very interesting. I need to kick myself in the butt and get it done.

Rambling again....LOL...my mom says a writer cannot write Hello in less than 10,000 words....LOL...and there is some truth to that. I was just asked to write a 600 word article for an outdoors magazine and it took me all day...because I had a hard time saying what needed to be said with so few words.

Well, take care, stay safe, and have a Happy Holiday Season,

W.R. Benton
