Guest Post by Ben Ditmars

Hello, this is Ben Ditty of Nice Old Spice. Chris has graciously allowed me to guest post for my upcoming book promotion. Ten Minutes in Heaven, my collection of short plays, will be free Monday on Kindle. So, let's get this party started!

How many of you like funny sketches? Show of hands!

Did I see one? In the back? No? Well, my book has quite a few of them. I call them ten minute plays and boy are they fun. I have one where Satan climbs aboard Noah's ark and goes after him Last Temptation style. Not religious? I also have one about sex. And another about murder. See, what I'm doing here, with the broad themes?

I can be more specific too. In Jumper, Edgar Allen Poe and Vincent Van Gogh try to talk a college freshman out of suicide. He cheated on his girlfriend and felt his life was over. It's amazing what dead artists can do for your self esteem.

Of, course, there's also the actors from the Wizard of Oz. I based a play off a drawing that appeared in a paper after the last of the four main characters died. It's a more serious departure. But, I think you'll like it! So, stop by Kindle Monday, even if you don't have one. You can read it on apps for your PC and smart phone.

You crack me up Ben Ditty.
I gotta get me a Kindle! I'm tired of sitting in front of a computer. I want to take my books on the road :)
