"Founders' Keeper" by Ed Markham (Mgoblogger)
Ed is an author and Mgoblogger that created a post about a yr ago (?) to introduce the sale of his book, "Founders' Keeper" to the board. Anyway, I finally finished it today and wanted to congratulte him on creating an exciting read and some great characters. 
Also, upon finishing I noticed that he has written a few more books starring the same characters that the board may enjoy.
Congrats, Ed for creating a world that's fun to get lost in.
Wow, I had completely forgotten that the author was an MGoBlogger! I've read and enjoyed the first 2 books. Thanks for the heads up about the 3rd one.
He's also a Wolverine alum! Congrats on all the success.
I purchased the book when he posted about the sale and just never got to it. After I got started it was a page turner. Very entertaining.
Didn't realize there are two more books. I'll check them out. Thanks for the heads up!
Am I the only one who clicked thinking this was about a microbrewer?
There are some things that can be combined with alcohol
Do we have any other author's on the board? I'm thinking of writing a couple of scifi books once I retire. I have a notebook full of ideas.
I've been writing three books for about fifteen years.
Whether I ever finish them, let alone get published, is another story. So am I an author? Not really. But kind of.
my 1200 pages of infantalism fan-fic ?
$3 on Kindle--can't beat the price.
Also, pretty awesome that Elmore Leonard gave him a quote for the cover. He's a legend.
I'm "Ed Markham," which is a pseudonym. I work as a magazine journalist, so I try to keep these thrillers separate from my professional writing. (My real name is Markham Heid. Ed was my grandfather's name, and now it's also my second son's name.)
I'm at a loss for words here. Everyone on this board was awesome and supportive when I posted about my book last year during the off-season, but I never expected it to come up again. I'm almost getting emotional sitting at my desk and seeing this. If this isn't an example of the Michigan Difference (and the MGoBlog Difference), I don't know what is.
I'd love to pay this kindness forward somehow. If anyone here is thinking about writing a book, or would like information about any aspect of book publishing or self-publishing, I'd be happy to share what I know. You can reach me at [email protected]. LLB, thank you again.
I will probably take you up on that "Ed". I've been extremely fortunate (lucky?) in the business world so I'm now looking at a very early retirement with the intent being to write a book on my experiences. Good to know a fellow MgoBlogger & alum has already been down that road and is willing to give directions to the neophytes.
My name is Don Hubbard and my email is [email protected]. Thanks in advance and now I've got to buy and read your books!
Your're welcome. Also, have you already decided in your mind who would play these characters on the big screen?
For whatever reason, the dad from the TV show "Frasier" has always flashed through my mind when writing the Martin Yerxa character in these. But it's mostly his voice, not his face.
I pictured Judd Hirsch and Rob Morrow from "Numbers".
