Hopefully this is not offensive or out-of-place. But I believe it is also in the interest of promoting Sammy Clemens' genius - albeit through fiction and non-traditional way. My new novel, *Mark Twain & The River of Timeless* *Temptation* is part of an Amazon Scout campaign, with readers given a sample and asked to show their level of interest. Those who vote for its full publication will receive a free copy if it is chosen by Amazon. It is certainly my intention to publish regardless. But any support would be appreciated. The story, in short, is based on relatively young Clemens' 1866 trip through Nicaragua and his travelogues that included a mysterious companion and occasional literary foil named Mr. Brown. In my fictional version, Brown has another agenda and satanic purpose, taking them both on a journey back in time. They encounter other historical travelers on the Rio San Juan, including Cornelius Vanderbilt, future Lord Nelson, pirate Henry Morgan, Giuseppe Garibaldi and Christopher Columbus. Will the resulting adventures cause Sammy to trade his soul for fame & fortune? Or will he thwart his Mephistophelian companion while changing and rewrite history? Enough said and pitch finished.
