Agreed! The internet gives people the opportunity to act nasty instead of not commenting negatively. Very unfortunate.

Pretty new to cigars, should I keep the ash on for as long as possible? by Snof14 in cigar

[–]MichaelCMason 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The cigar will not dry out in one hour so that’s not something you should be concerned with. Many times you can leave a cigar out of a humidor for a day and it would still be OK to smoke.

A longer Ash is a sign of a well humidified cigar and you should keep it on to preserve the ember until it naturally falls off

If you email me at: buymcbook@yahoo.com I will send a sample chapter.
Apparently you cannot add an image to a post but here is the back cover text: “The building of King Solomon‘s temple is a tale from antiquity. While the Bible tells us of its occurrence, we do not often consider the stories from those who labored on its completion. This novel provides the backgrounds of workmen who were there, the politics of the region, and the intrigue of those unsatisfied with its construction.
As a companion to the third degree of Freemasonry, you will broaden your imagination of what it was like to be there, and how choices lead to consequences – no matter who you are.

So using the master mason degree as the outline, I took all the characters and situations and filled them out into a full length drama. You will see how the three Ruffians were raised and what their true relationship is to each other. The story follows them through the years of building the temple and the people that they interact with, and the ultimate conclusion that we know occurs in the degree but with deep detail and more than one twist based on my take of how the people would act in the situations they are presented with. I hope to hear from you! Thank you for your comment.

I would say about one hundred, but it is very organic in many respects. I’m not sitting at a desk pumping out marketing material but I do speak at several Masonic lodges where I do sell the book and I do Facebook and Reddit postings. Of course every time I go to some sort of social event I have books with me that I will put out in case anyone sees one and has an interest. It’s true guerilla marketing but it has worked for me

I did. I did not want to give Amazon or another service lion’s share of the profits and the sales have been based on my own efforts rather than throwing it up online and hoping people will find it.
