HELLO TO YOU ALL, I AM SO SORRY THAT IT HAS TAKEN ME NEARLY TWO MONTHS TO UPDATE MY SITE, BUT I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON GETTING MY THIRD BOOK PUBLISHED, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THAT WON'T BE HAPPENING ANY TIME SOON. PUBLISH AMERICA WROTE ME BACK AND THEY SAID THAT DUE TO A LACK OF SALES FROM MY FIRST TWO BOOKS, THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PUBLISH ANOTHER BOOK UNTIL SALES EITHER PICK UP OR MY CONTRACT RUNS OUT FOR ONE OF THE BOOKS. I AM NOW LOOKING FOR ANOTHER PUBLISHER TO CARRY MY THIRD BOOK, TALES TO CHILL YOUR BLOOD, WHICH IS A COLLECTION OF SHORT STORIES THAT I HAVE WRITTEN OVER THE PAST THIRTEEN YEARS. IT IS ALSO A CELEBRATION OF WHERE IT ALL BEGAN AND THE LONG ROAD TO WHERE I AM NOW, AND AS I READ THAT CHILLING E-MAIL, I WAS REMINDED OF THE MANY THOUSANDS OF REJECTION LETTERS THAT IT TOOK UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO FIND PUBLISH AMERICA, AND JUST HOW LUCKY I WAS TO FINALLY BE A PUBLISHED AUTHOR. I ENCOURAGE YOU ALL TO DO YOUR BEST AND PERSEVERE EVEN IF IT SEEMS THAT YOU WILL NEVER MAKE IT, BECAUSE THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN THE BUSINESS IS GETTING YOUR FOOT IN THE DOOR, AND I HAVE DONE THAT, SO NOW ALL I HAVE TO DO IS DO MY BEST TO KEEP SPREADING THE WORD ABOUT MY FIRST TWO BOOKS, AND TO CONTINUE TO ALSO DO MY BEST TO FIND A PUBLISHER FOR MY THIRD AND FUTURE BOOKS. MY FRIEND, SEAN ANDERSON IS HAVING HIS BOOK PUBLISHED BY PUBLISH AMERICA, IT IS A COLLECTION OF POEMS AND ESSAYS THAT HE HAS WRITTEN, AND ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO, HE CAME TO ME FOR HELP, AND I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS PROJECT FOR THE PAST SIX MONTHS OR SO, AND FINALLY, WE FINISHED IT, AND I SUBMITTED IT FOR HIM, AND HE GOT THE NEWS RIGHT AWAY THAT IT WILL BE PUBLISHED SOME TIME NEXT YEAR, SO THAT IN ITSELF IS HOPE FOR ME, BECAUSE I HELPED SOMEONE ELSE TAKE THAT LEAP INTO THE DOORWAY, AND EVEN THOUGH IT WASN'T MY WORK THAT IS BEING PUBLISHED, I WAS A PART OF IT, AND BECAUSE IT MADE IT, I AM VERY HAPPY FOR SEAN AND FOR MYSELF, AND I SWEAR THAT I WILL NEVER GIVE UP, AND I WILL CONTINUE TO DO MY PART IN THIS, AND ALL I ASK OF YOU ALL IS TO DO YOUR PART AS WELL AND ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO READ MY BOOKS, AND MAKE THEM AWARE THAT THEY ARE OUT THERE TO BE READ, AND I THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THAT YOU DO FOR ME, AND JUST KNOW THAT NO MATTER HOW SMALL OF A PART YOU FEEL YOU MAY BE IN THIS, YOU ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF IT, BECAUSE WITHOUT YOU, THE DREAM WILL NEVER HAPPEN, SO THANK YOU AND I AM EVER GRATEFUL FOR YOU ALL. I ALSO HAVE SOME SAD NEWS FOR THIS MONTH, ON SEPTEMBER 16th, I LOST A GOOD FRIEND, TONY COBB, HE HAD BEEN FIGHTING BACK PROBLEMS FOR A LONG TIME, AND HAD HAD MULTIPLE SURGERIES, AND EACH ONE MADE HIM WORSE, HE WAS FORCED TO RETIRE ON PERMANENT DISABILITY BACK IN 1998 OR SO, AND HAD BEEN IN SEVERE PAIN EVER SINCE, AND FINALLY ON SEPTEMBER 16th AT THE AGE OF 44, HE LOST THAT BATTLE, SO PLEASE, PRAY FOR HIS WIFE AND FAMILY, AND THAT GOD WILL GRANT THEM PEACE IN THIS TIME OF LOSS. I KNOW THAT HE IS IN A BETTER PLACE AND THAT HE NO LONGER SUFFERS, AND THAT NOW WE ARE THE ONLY ONES SUFFERING, BECAUSE WE NO LONGER HAVE HIM, BUT WE WILL SEE HIM AGAIN ONE DAY, AND THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS. I HOPE THAT YOU ALL HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY HALLOWEEN. TAKE CARE AND PLEASE, KEEP IN TOUCH. I HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU ALL AGAIN SOON.

I HAD A GREAT 4th OF JULY, THOUGH I DIDN'T GO ANYWHERE OR DO ANYTHING SPECIAL, I JUST ENJOYED BEING OFF OF WORK AND BEING ABLE TO SIT IN MY APARTMENT AND WATCH THE FIREWORKS WITH MY CATS, THROUGH THE WINDOW, AND IT WAS GREAT. WHEN MY WIFE GOT HOME FROM WORK, SHE JOINED US, AND WE COOKED SOME FOOD, AND THEN WATCHED MORE FIREWORKS ON T.V. THAT IS ALSO THE DAY THAT WE WENT TO SEE THE NEW TRANSFORMERS MOVIE. PROOF SEEMS TO BE DOING WELL, AND I THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT IN THIS, AND JUST ASK YOU TO KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB YOU ARE DOING BY CONTINUING TO SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT MY BOOKS. PROOF ALSO MADE IT INTO SOME CHRISTIAN SUPPLY MAGAZINES ETC. THOUGH I HAVE NOT SEEN IT WITH MY OWN EYES, I HAVE HAD A FEW PEOPLE TELL ME THAT THEY SAW MY BOOKS IN A CHRISTIAN SUPPLY MAGAZINE, AND THAT ONE OF THESE PEOPLE'S MOM ORDER IT THROUGH THIS MAGAZINE AND DIDN'T KNOW THAT HER SON WAS ONE OF MY FRIENDS FROM WORK, SO GOD DOES WORK IN MYSTERIOUS BUT AWESOME WAYS, SO THIS IS GREAT NEWS.

KEEP IN TOUCH AND HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON. HAVE A GREAT REST OF THE MONTH. BYE FOR NOW. YOUR NUMBER ONE FAN, WES CALDWELL
JUNE 11, 2007:
Hello everyone, sorry that it has been so long since I have updated my site, but I have been having a lot of things happen in my life. From now on, instead of having a guestbook, I will now simply ask you to e-mail me, any concerns, praises, questions, kudos, etc. that you may have at all, and would like to thank each and every one of you who did sign the guestbook, though it will no longer be available for all to see. I apologize again for this inconvenience, but we have to show the filth mongers that they can't spread their crap here. If you would like to write to me, my e-mail is all over this site, but once again, here it is to make it simple wescaldwell2003@yahoo.com I have also finished my third book, which will be a collection of short stories, entitled, TALES TO CHILL YOUR BLOOD. I plan on submitting it some time in the next couple of months. I have begun work on my fourth book, but so far have no title for it, but it is about a hit man, but don't worry, it has some horror elements, as well as religious elements to it. I will continue to keep you posted on both of these works as I know more about what is going on with them. If I seem to be in a solemn mood, then it is because a lot has happened in the past couple of weeks to make me understand more and more why I wrote PROOF, and why I believe what I believe, and stand by my beliefs no matter what others may say, because in this life, as short as it may be for some of us, only the strong survive, and even when they die, they live on forever, peacefully, as it should be, and those who consider the strong weak, and do not realize just how strong the weak really are, are the ones who should be questioning whether or not they will indeed survive when the end comes. My wife and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary yesterday, and for this I am thankful, and pray that God will grant us many more happy years in the future. Before this, my wife's cousin, was killed in a car accident in New York, he was 22, and though it is very sad that he was taken so young, we know that he is with God, and that he no longer has to worry about what is going to happen to him, it was this that made me realize just how short life is, and can be, and how we can not and should not take it for granted. I have brushed with death, and know for certain that I am very lucky to be here, and I thank God all the time for allowing me to live, and for the many talents that He has bestowed upon me. I only pray that when it is my time to go, people will know that I did my best, and I hope that I leave a lasting good impression on all those around me, and that they will know that I had the best intentions when I did all that I have done in this life, whether it can be understood or not, it is what it is, and I am who I am, I change for no one. I hope that you are all doing well, and that life is treating you good. Please, continue to keep in touch, and keep my wife and her side of the family in your thoughts and prayers, and thank you all for all that you have done and continue to do. I hope that you have all had a chance to pick up a copy of PROOF, if not, then you know where to get them, and if not, please feel free to write to me and I will tell you where you can get them, or answer any questions that you may have about anything. As far as my health issues are concerned, I am doing a lot better for now, and pray that I will continue to do so. Thank you all for your concern, and your thoughts and prayers and support, in all that you do. Thank you once again, and please, continue to keep in touch. May God bless you all both now and always in all that you do. Sincerely, Your Biggest Fan For Life, Wes Caldwell
APRIL 12, 2007:
Hello everyone, I hope that you all had a safe and happy Easter. I told you that I would be updating the site as much as possible, and I have some new treats for you. I have decided to make available upon request a sample chapter for both of my books. You can obtain these free sample chapters by e-mailing me at wescaldwell2003@yahoo.com and in the subject of your e-mail putting PROOF SAMPLE CHAPTER REQUEST or DAMNATION SAMPLE CHAPTER REQUEST. I will then gladly e-mail you the first chapter of one or both books to you so that you may read it, and see whether or not you wish to purchase these books. I hope that this will help you in making the decision to read my books, and that you will enjoy what you are able to read. I will contiune to do my best to update this site as much as possible. I thank each and every person involved in helping me get my dreams of being a published author up and going, and I appreciate each and every person who is helping me to become a successful published author. Thank you all so much, and may God bless you now and always in all that you, I am ever grateful for your help and support. My health problems are getting better, I had my colonoscopy yesterday, and the doctor seems to think that everything looks fine, despite the fact that the Crohne's is still there, it isn't the cause of my problems, he now believes that on top of Crohne's, I have I.B.S. and that has been the cause of the problem here lately, and has added a new medication to help control it, and I should be able to return to life as normal by early May. Thank you all so much for your help, support, and continued prayers. I could not and will not do it without you, you are all so wonderful, so thank you once again, and keep checking back for future updates. Until next time, your number one fan always, Wes Caldwell.
MARCH 26, 2007:
This web site is now officially a year old! Hello everyone, it looks as if the wait is finally over, and PROOF is finally here at last. I apologize that it has been a little over a month since I last updated this site. I have been working hard on updating it, but until today, I was having problems with it. I apologize again, but ask you to please hang in there with me as I make the site a lot better. The Store section will be under construction for the next few months, but I assure you that it is coming by the end of the year, if all goes accordingly. I have been having problems with my health (Crohn's Disease), and I am still working on figuring out just what is going on, so please stand by and be patient as I get the bugs worked out in my life, as well as my site, and enjoy reading your copy of my second novel, PROOF. You may now purchase it either online, or at most of your favorite book stores. I promise you that you will enjoy this novel, and that it will be worth your while, and that it will live up to all that I have said about it for the past year. I am very happy with this novel and how it turned out, and I hope that you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it and reading it. This book is a revelation and testimony for what I am going through in my life right now, so I can tell you that if you ever question why bad things happen to good people, and whether or not God loves you, then this is a book for you, because I feel that I hit every possible angle I could to ask and answer this question in a fictional, yet truthful way. It is helping me through my health struggles, and draws me closer to God each day, though I am not sure what is going on in my own life as far as my health is concerned, I know that like the characters in my book, myself and others around me have specific roles in this life, and God has a plan for us all. We touch the lives of other people every day whether we are awair of it or not, and that is what this book is about, it can not be described in words, it just has to be read, and then you will understand, because each person will take from it a different meaning, but every person that reads it should like it, and hopefully love it, and say that it helped them in some positive way. I am also continuing to work on my third novel, which is a collection of short stories that I have written over the past thirteen years, since the beginning of my writing career. I am planning on calling it TALES TO CHILL YOUR BLOOD though I am not positive that this is what the end title will be, but I like it so far. Keep in touch and take care, and be sure to continue to spread the word about my books, because without your help, no one will know who I am, or what my books are about. Thank you so much for your continued help and support. I wish you all the best in life, and with you as a part of my life I already have the best in life, it can only get better from here on. Thank you once again for all that you continue to do for me. You are worth it all to me, and I hope that I am worth it all to you. Until the next time, your biggest fan for life, Wes Caldwell
FEBRUARY 24, 2007:
Greetings my fellow readers. The wait is nearly over, though I can't tell you for sure when it will be, but PROOF is very close to coming out, so please, continue to be patient, and I will keep you posted as to when it will be coming out. I hope that you all had a safe and happy Valentine's day, and that you are having a great new year so far. Sorry it has been a couple of months since you last heard from me, but I have been having some trouble with my Crohn's disease, but now due to a new medication, I am getting back to normal, and life is good once again. I have great news for those of you who have been eagerly awaiting the release of PROOF all we are waiting on now is the cover art, and it should only be a short while until I receive it in my e-mail, and review it and okay it, and then another short period of time until I receive my personal copies of the book, and give them one final review and then it will be ready to buy. I estimate some time in the next couple of months, but I am not 100% sure when it will be, but I will continue to keep you updated through the website, as well as monthly news leters, which I have not failed to send out each month around the 5th of the month, so for the latest news, please sign up for it by writing to me at wescaldwell2003@yahoo.com Also, one last note, please check out the DVD collections of Ghost Hunters Seasons 1 & 2, I assure you that you will not regret it, this is one of my favorite shows, and it is very good, and the guys on there are very nice and trust-worthy, so for those of you who seek the truth, check them out.
DECEMBER 23, 2006/NOVEMBER 21, 2006 :
I have received the latest news on the editing of my second book, PROOF and so far everything is going well, the book is ready to move on to the final process which is the cover design, and then it will be available for print. I estimate, and it is only an estimate that it will be available for purchase some time in early 2007, and hopefully no later than Valentine's Day. I will continue to keep you updated as I know more. I want to wish you all a safe and very Merry Christmas, and I hope that you all get everything that you want this year, and that Santa is good to you. I would also like to thank Mike and the Book Rack of Rock Hill, S.C. for allowing me to attend my second book signing in their store on November 25. I had a great time, and look forward to the next signing. Thank you once again for all of your help and support. Keep up the great work, and keep in touch. I hope to hear from you all soon. Once again, my second book, PROOF is nearing it's final phase, and should be ready to buy some time in the year 2007. I am very proud of this book, and hope that you will all give it a chance and enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed writing it. I am currently working on my third and fourth books, and will have at least the third one finished and submitted for publication by the time PROOF is out for you to buy. Keep on checking back for more updates in the near future. I am still working out some of the issues with the Store section, so please, hang in there, and we will have it up and running as soon as possible, if at all possible, though it may take a few months, your patience is appreciated. Thank you once again for all of your continued hard work and support. I will write to you again soon via the monthly newsletter.

 OCTOBER 31, 2006/AUGUST 22, 2006:

I hope that you all had a safe and happy Halloween, and that you didn't see too many spooky ghosts while out trick or treating. So far there is no news on the store, but I am working on it, so keep checking back. I hope you all have a safe and happy Thanksgiving as well. Hello everyone, I have decided to open a store section on my website. The store will include items such as; t-shirts (black or gray) with the cover of my book on the front of them, and on the back have my website address, Publish America's website address, and my name on them, as well as posters of the cover of my book with the website address at the bottom (signed by me of course), bumper stickers for my website and bookmarks. I am not sure about how much to charge, but as soon as I find out more, I will let you know. Right now it is merely an idea, so please, write to me at  wescaldwell2003@yahoo.com  and let me know if you think this is a good idea and how many of each you would like to have. It will work the same as any store online, purchases will be made up front, and the merchandise will be shipped to you as soon as possible. Thanks, and keep checking back for more news and updates. Wes Caldwell 

JULY 14/APRIL 26, 2006:
The first official book signing at The Book Rack in Rock Hill, S.C. went well, and I had a great time. Thanks to all of you who showed up, and to those of you who were there in thoughts as well. I am trying now to get another signing in the next few months at Barnes & Noble in Pineville, N.C. I will keep you posted. Today I found out that I will be doing my first official book signing at The Book Rack in Rock Hill, S.C. on Saturday July 8, 2006. The time for this signing will be from 1 p.m. until 3 p.m. I may stay longer, depending on how many people show up. For more info on this signing, check out my Events section. Hope to see you there! On June 10, 2006, I married Vania Craven, now Vania Caldwell. My first novel, THE PROCESS OF DAMNATION, is now available to order. If you would like to order a copy of the book, go to;  www.publishamerica.com   www.barnesandnoble.com   www.borders.com   www.waldenbooks.com   or   www.amazon.com  From there go to the online bookstore section or search for the book by the title or my name. My book can also be found at The Book Rack in Rock Hill, S.C. the price is $18.88 plus tax.

This book should be available to buy some time in 2007, though I am not sure when exactly. Thank you for all of your support, keep in touch, and let me know what you think of the book once you have read it. Wes 

FEBRUARY 25, 2006:

PROOF is nearly finished! Today I have nearly completed PROOF. The next step is to finish this book, revise it, and then submit it for publication. What is PROOF? PROOF, is my second novel, and now I am ready to share with you what it is about; We all walk through life, and experience the same situations, but how we react to these situations that we face day to day is what sets us apart from everyone else in the world and makes us unique. Our faith is tested on a daily basis by the things that we see and do in this life, and though we may all live in the same world, we do not all believe in the same things. How many times have you asked yourself, "Is there a God, and does He love me?" This is a question that we all want to know the answer to. PROOF, though it may be a work of fiction will attempt to answer this question, by introducing the reader to Justin Prynn, an interviewer from a church, who wants to know why people do or do not believe in God, and compiles each of these unique interviews into one novel. PROOF will draw you in and whether you believe in God or not, it will entertain you, touch your heart and open your eyes to the many answers to the question asked above. I have put a lot into the writing of this book, and I want it to be for everyone, and I think that if you give it a chance, then you will enjoy it. I will continue to keep you posted on PROOF as well as THE PROCESS OF DAMNATION. Thank you for your time, support, and patience.
