The Honor Belongs to You

I’m pleased to announce that this blog, “Swindled,” was a finalist in the Colorado Authors League 2017 Awards contest for work published in 2016. This is an unexpected honor, because I wrote “Swindled, “ the story of the conservation easement fiasco in Colorado, to simply tell the story, in a simple and straightforward manner, of what happened to hundreds of landowners in Colorado who have been swindled. If this publicity will help them in any way, it will be enormously satisfying and I share the honor of this award with you, the victims of this "swindle" and you, the readers who supported me during this process.

As you may have discovered, “Swindled” is a serialized blog, so you have to read backwards, starting from the bottom up. Some readers have complained that this is difficult, so I’ve made a .pdf of the whole story from start to finish, starting with #1 through #36.
 
IF YOU WOULD LIKE THIS .pdf DOCUMENT, please use the contact form and send me your email so I can send it to you. Please understand that I will also add your email to my database, but fear not – I do not sell the data and I rarely send emails. (I will not provide the .pdf in any other way except by email.).

    Hi! Welcome to this blog!   I'm a professional writer and award-winning author. I didn't really want to write this blog, but I also believe that the story of the huge conservation easement fiasco in Colorado has not yet been adequately told. So here it is!

    It's so long, I've had to serialize it, so please note that you have to START with Blog Post #1 (June 28, 2016) for the story to make sense!  So, if you're new to the blog, please go back to the beginning and start there.
