Happy 4th of July!
Hey there, -- It is Independence Day here in the US, which means Hot Dogs, Fireworks and our annual celebration memorializing Will Smith's defeat of aliens! 

Welcome to Earth!

The July 2013 issue of the Colorado Chess Informant magazine is out now.  It is free, and anyone can read it.

Editor Fred Spell did a great job as usual! 

My "Tactics Time" column appears on page 20, if you would like to check that out.  It has 9 Tactics taken from recent games played in Colorado.

Other contributors include Paul Anderson, Buck Buchanan, Todd Bardwick, Randy Reynolds, Brad Lundstrom, Joe Fromme, and Michael Wokurka.

Some good news!  Anthea Carson and I have started on a sequel to our very popular Tactics Time Kindle eBook!

The original Tactics Time continues to do really well, and is consistently the top selling Kindle chess eBook on amazon, and jumps between #1 and #3 on for all chess books (paperback or electronic).

You can see the list of the best selling chess books on amazon here.  (Updated every hour)

This book will continue the tradition started with the first book - lots of tactics from real games of real players!

NOT - a million queen sacrifices, not a million smothered mates, not a bunch of under promotions that happen only in endgame studies and composed problems.  Just the type of real positions that happen all the time! 

I don't know yet when we will be done, but I will keep you posted!

Also, the paperback version of Tactics Time should be out in time for Christmas!

Happy Tactics and Happy Fourth of July!
