Sudoku Scattered Showers - Volume 1 - Softcover

This is the first of 16 puzzle books I've written and I've only just started! The others aren't published yet; gotta do a little more work on them...

I had a blast writing this book and the others that follow, but this first one was a bit of a challenge in finding the best puzzle generation software that would allow me to put together 200 puzzles and answers and then to compile them into a book.

I really did enjoy designing the cover. That's my favorite task when creating any of my books because I am an artist, first and foremost and digital art is my forte. I excel in PhotoShop and other digital image editors, but the creative juices begin to flow with pencil and paper. Then it's keyboard time and I hone my images on-screen. I absolutely love it when it comes to life in full color!

My Adult Coloring books are so much fun to create, but these Sudoku puzzle books are  exciting for me as well, because anything I can create and offer to my loyal readers is always a turn-on for me. When I get my proof copies in the mail and hold my finished books in hand, it's kinda like holding your child for the first time. Really, it is!

Another thing I truly enjoy is helping other authors, of any genre, create and publish THEIR books, because I know what a thrill it is going to be for them to hold their new child, too!

I love what I do. Being in a wheelchair took away a lot of what I used to do, but it also opened up this whole new world for me as an author, artist, publisher and consultant for other authors, so... I have no complaints!

This and the other Sudoku books are just another of my growing family and I'm such a proud Pappy! If any of this inspires you to write your own book and you need any help, please check out my website and I'll gladly point you North. As I said, I LOVE what I do and this Sudoku book is a fine example of that.

OKBye!

Kenneth Randy Horn is an author, artist and publisher whom owns SpectraGraf Publishing Co. since March, 2012. Randy, as he's known to friends and family, studied the various visual arts at San Joaquin Delta College in Stockton, CA, College of the Sequoias in Visalia, CA and attended the Bob Ross School of Art in Portland, OR. In 1988, in Exeter, CA, Randy formed KANDU! Graphics, specializing in screen-printed graphics and signage. In 1991, Randy moved his business to Crescent City, CA, where he continued his education, research and practice in the fields of photography, sculpture and casting to produce a strong line of products which included pen & ink artwork based on photographs taken around his beloved Pacific Northwest, sculptures in wood, stone and resin depicting local subjects and private life-casting in various mediums. When Randy returned to Exeter, in 2012, he was injured in an accident and found himself in a wheelchair, permanently. Spending a great deal more time at his desk, he turned to his graphic design training and switched gears in art. This is when he embarked on his career as a digital artist and as an author, concentrating on both electronic art books and children's interactive books. He found that other authors needed his skills and talents for cover design, illustrations, compilation and publishing. So began his present and successful SpectraGraf Publishing Co.
