The Latest Matt Rutherford Thriller:
The Mile High Club

 

Reviews and book sales continue to do well!  I keep getting sly feedback, especially from pilots (and their close personal friends) who voluteer that in fact, they are "members" of this informal organization.   I keep waiting for someone to show me the secret handshake.

 

Among my regular fans, I still hear "the best one yet," and I have to agree--it's a great story.  Click on the link below to read more about the story.

 

If you'd like to order a signed copy, please see the Contact Us page on the header above.  If you're just curious and want to see what the book's about by reading a few chapters, Click Here.  I've posted the first three on another page on this site.

There is always something happening.  I'll try to list the most current thing of interest here with a link either to my "News and Notes" page, or elsewhere.  Most of this will be of interest to readers and/or writers, but occasionally I'll post something that I find unique or fascinatingly unusual.  

 


 

New Magazine Article Added

I have just added an article I did for Middle Georgia Magazine on Sandersville's Old Jail.

To read it, click on "Magazine Articles, etc." on the menu at the top and follow the link on that page.


 

Article in The Macon Telegraph

Phil Ramati recently did a profile piece on me as an author in the Macon Telegraph:

 

Sandersville Doctor Finding Success As Author

William Rawlings insists he is only the latest in the long tradition of physicians-turned-novelists.  Certainly, Rawlings has a long way to go to live up to the standard set by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the Scottish doctor who created Sherlock Holmes. Or Michael Crichton, the physician who drew inspiration from Conan Doyle’s novel “The Lost World” to create “Jurassic Park.”

The Rutherford Cipher Re-Released!   

I am pleased to announce that The Rutherford Cipher, my second and many readers' favorite novel, is being re-released in a quality softcover editon.  The hardcover editions have long been "sold out" and many people have resorted to buying used copies on the internet.  I have arranged with Indigo Press to bring out a new editon of the book.  It will be available shortly on amazon.com and through other outlets.  If you'd like a copy, please contact me, or look for it on-line in a few weeks.  I hope to have the electronic edition (for Kindle and other readers) available shortly also.

  


New On-Line Purchase Options

I am in the process of establishing PayPal links for all of my books so that they can be purchased on-line with a credit or debit card.  Bear with me if you will; it will take me a few days to get this all up and running properly.
