You may now read The Best of GO INSIDE Magazine and The Best of Urban Semiotic Volumes 1 and 2 using your Kindle, or smartphone or tablet or desktop — and now, today, you are also able to read three mighty volumes from the rest of the network in Best of Boles Blogs Volume 1, and Volume 2 and Volume 3 — all via Amazon!

We are offering these “Best of…” volumes to meet requests from readers for a new pathway for finding our work, and please know the little bit of money royalty we may receive goes straight to paying for our backend services. We are still not taking home any profit from the Boles Blogs Network. We thank you for your continued readership and support!
This took a long time. Lots of editing and fixing and writing over many years and I am happy to see it is all done. Will there be more volumes in the future?
Yes, this has been a massive and time-consuming project. There will certainly be more volumes in the future as more great “Best of…” articles are written! SMILE!
Well, better get back to the new stuff. Never stops, right?
Never stopping! You pause, you die. The internet has a fickle memory.
David,
The best part of ebooks is that even if you miss an error and it is later found — you know that everyone’s copy will be updated to the corrected edition automatically! 🙂 This looks great. I like the look of the books on my iPhone.
Yes, that’s exactly right. Errors, I have learned, are everywhere and inevitable. It’s just good to have easy ways to get things fixed.
Many buenos on the many new volumes! I see some of the blogs seem to have disappeared.
Thanks, Anne! I was a big job that took me to the edge, but the experience was certainly worth it in the end.
We did some blogs condensing to create several “SuperBlogs” in the Boles Blogs Network. It’s working out great!
