Got some proofs in the mail today. I haven't gone through them, but I'm just happy that the covers turned out, because I got error messages on both of them.

Why did I also include photos of unrelated TPBs? To show that the size I chose, 8 x 5.25" is the closest to actual TPB size. I wish Createspace offered 8.25 x 5.25 or 5.5, but they don't, and 8.5 is too tall. 8 x 5.25" is the only standard TPB size they offer (both of the above books are that size). A lot of people go with 9 x 6". That's hardcover size, so it looks weird unless it's like 700 pages. And why would you want your page count to be low? To make more money off paper sales? How many paper books do you sell versus e sales lost due to low page count? The only reason I made these is so that Amazon will replace their too-low estimate of Psychomancer and Blood Tells True, which I know is hurting my sales.

Everyone has their reasons, but 8 x 5.25" makes sense to me.

From what I heard, if you don't use Createspace (meaning if you go with Lightning Source), your page count doesn't get corrected. I don't know if that's true or not.

PS I got these after reading Helen Hanson's post, which explains how Createspace has repeatedly messed up the cover of her most recent effort, due to what I believe is the same error message I got. I got lucky.

  1. I went with the 8.5 x 5.5 on mine. Believe it or not I had to go check because I'm such a scatterbrain. When I made my choice it was between the 8 and 8.5 size and I went back and forth about it for a couple of days. I ended up measuring all of the paperbacks on my shelf and trying to figure out which size was the most comfortable to read for me. I feel like you can use a slightly bigger font on the 8.5 as well, which I like.

    I've actually sold more paper copies so far than I ever imagined I would. I'm at 10 even right now, which I didn't expect. Not flying off the shelves certainly, but that's 10 people I would have reached otherwise. Okay, 9. One was bought by an old high school friend who likes to be supportive. :)

    1. I do have a rare few tpbs that are 8.5 high, so I vacillated a bit. As you can tell, I broke out the ruler, too!

      A bigger font size is actually a really good reason. I've thought that I wouldn't mind doing mine at 12 pt (instead of 11 with 1.15 spacing), and I think I'd have to go up in size to 8.5 x 5.5 to do it.

  2. I've not done the self-published 'physical' thang as yet. Unsure as yet whether to leap in...

    1. I like having the paper copies. With these last two, there was just always some more worthwhile way to spend my time until Amazon pulled the "estimated pages" thing. But I don't think there are any drawbacks if you have the time to invest in learning the formatting (which is about as complex as the e-equivalent).

      But I wonder about the factors an international situation brings up.

Toyota is to pay a record $1.2bn to resolve a criminal investigation into its handling of consumer complaints over safety issues, in what officials say is the largest penalty levied by the United States on a car company.

The Japanese carmaker admitted it misled US consumers by concealing and making deceptive statements about two safety issues, each of which caused a type of unintended acceleration, the Justice Department said.

Prosecutors filed criminal charges against the company but agreed to defer and drop them if the company allows an
independent monitor to review its safety practises and if it abides by the terms of the deal, the Reuters news agency reported.

Toyota is "effectively on probation for three years," US lawyer Preet Bharara, whose office conducted the investigation, said at a news conference announcing the settlement.

"It cared more about savings than safety and more about its own brand and bottom line than the truth," Bharara said.

Toyota said it would take a $1.2bn after-tax charge for the settlement in the fiscal year ending March 31.

'Unfortunate chapter'

"Entering this agreement, while difficult, is a major step towards putting this unfortunate chapter behind us," Toyota's
North American legal chief Christopher Reynolds said in a statement.

The settlement resolves a four-year investigation by US authorities, as Toyota continues to face hundreds of lawsuits over acceleration problems.

The case gained public attention after the deaths of a California highway patrolman and his family, which were reportedly caused by the unintended acceleration of his Toyota-made Lexus.

The faulty acceleration prompted Toyota to recall millions of vehicles, beginning in 2009.

But Toyota's public statements about the recall misled the public, because it knew it did not recall all the cars susceptible to the problems, caused by faulty floor mats, prosecutors said.

The company also took steps to hide from regulators another type of unintended acceleration caused by pedals getting stuck, officials said.

"Idiots! Someone will go to jail if lies are repeatedly told. I can't support this," one Toyota employee said after a meeting with regulators, according to a statement of facts filed with the settlement.

No individuals were charged as part of the settlement, Reuters said.

Last year, Toyota received approval on a settlement valued at $1.6bn to resolve claims from Toyota owners that the value of their cars dropped after the problems came to light.

It is also negotiating with hundreds of customers who said they had been injured.

Al Ahly are celebrating their centenary year
Egypt's Al Ahly football team have just won their domestic league.

Fittingly it is the Cairo club's 100th major title victory in what is their centenary year.

Al Ahly is the most popular and successful team in the Arab world, with a fan base in the tens of millions.

But as Sportsworld's Andy Richardson found out, the club is about much more than just sport.

Sailing into hearts

Africa's entry turned heads
The business end of the Louis Vuitton yachting series will begin with the four remaining entries battling it out for the right to challenge for the sports greatest prize.

But, as Al Jazeera's Bendan Connor reports, it was another entry that captured hearts and imaginations during the challenge series.

Sailing towards a bright future, Africa's first ever entry turned heads at the world's greatest yachting series.

Carribean cricket

Carribean cricket continues to struggle

The Cricket World Cup in the West Indies is now over.

The hosts display was, without a doubt, one of the biggest disappointments of the tournment.

As Guy McCrea reports, the inevitable question being asked now is why, with all the money being pumped into Carribean cricket over the last few years, does the team and the region continue to struggle as a cricketing power?

Industry Insider

The sports industry's invisible players

We read and hear about it  most days. Sports men and women signing new deals that will earn them millions of dollars.

But far away from the spotlight, where there is not an athlete in sight, much more lucrative deals are being done by the organisations and businesses that make the big sporting events possible.

Wayne Hays travelled to China to meet some of the invisible players in the sports industry.

First Wind Marks Five Years of Commercial Operations at Cohocton Wind

Cohocton Wind project celebrates five years of successfully producing enough power for 35,000 homes since January 2009 while delivering significant economic benefits

COHOCTON, N.Y.--First Wind, an independent U.S.-based renewable energy company, today recognized the fifth anniversary of successful commercial operations at its 125 megawatt (MW) Cohocton Wind project in Steuben County, New York. Construction of the 50 turbine project began in the fall of 2007, and Cohocton Wind began commercial operations in January of 2009. The project produces enough clean, cost-competitive energy to power over 35,000 homes each year.

"As our largest operating wind project in the Northeast, and our second project to achieve commercial operations in New York, Cohocton Wind has been an integral part of our generation portfolio and we are very proud to recognize this milestone today," said Paul Gaynor, CEO of First Wind. "In the five years since the project went online, as well as in the development and construction periods, we are thrilled to see how this project has not only delivered renewable, cost-competitive energy to ratepayers, but has also served as a significant source to further local economic development for the Town of Cohocton and surrounding Steuben County communities while supporting New York's ambitious clean energy goals."

Since 2009, the Cohocton Wind project has provided significant local revenue and benefits by generating more than 200 jobs during construction, providing for 10 permanent operational positions, and helping to stimulate the local business economy. Cohocton Wind also provides substantial tax revenue for the Town of Cohocton, generating a total of at least $14 million in tax payments over a period of 20 years, with almost $4 million paid in the first five years. It also serves as a source of tax revenue for local schools, Town of Cohocton Special Districts, and Steuben County government, thereby reducing pressure on property taxes while helping to improve schools and strengthen local services.

To date, the town of Cohocton has been able to reduce property taxes by 60 percent, purchase all new highway equipment, pay off all debts, improve the local community park, start a new paid ambulance service, rebuild aging infrastructure, and generally improve services. Below is a summary of some of the notable milestones achieved during the five years of successful commercial operations of the Cohocton Wind project.

Project Benefits and Highlights

*The renewable power generated has been supplying clean, renewable electricity to approximately 35,000 New York homes annually since the project went online.

*The Cohocton Wind project provides significant local revenue, including over $14 million in tax payments to the Town of Cohocton over the course of 20 years. The property tax revenues fund county infrastructure, conservation, and economic development projects.

*In addition to the payments to the Town, First Wind also makes annual lease payments to landowners.

*Based on data recently published by the U.S. EPA's Emissions and Generation Resource Integrated Database (E-GRID), generating an equivalent amount of electric energy from a traditional fossil fuel burning facility would have required about 2,213,000 barrels of oil or 637,400 tons of coal over the five year period, yet has none of the associated toxicity, health, or cost issues.

*As an active member of the Cohocton community, First Wind has donated over $50,000 to local food pantries, the Cohocton Lego Robotics Club, the Cohocton Lions Club, the Cohocton Fire Department, the Cohocton Historical Society, the Sons of the American Legion Post 805, multiple Wayland Cohocton Central School programs, and others.

*First Wind provided $150,000 toward the revitalization of The Larrowe House, which is a local historic landmark.

*Each year First Wind has provided a $3,000 scholarship to a graduating senior from Wayland Cohocton Central School.

In addition to the 125 MW Cohocton Wind project, First Wind also operates the combined 35 MW Steel Winds I and II projects in Lackawanna and Hamburg Counties, New York, along the shores of Lake Erie.

About First Wind

First Wind develops, finances, builds and operates utility-scale renewable energy projects throughout the United States. Based in Boston, First Wind currently operates wind power facilities in the Northeast, the West and Hawaii, with combined capacity of more than 1,000 megawatts (MW) – enough to power about 300,000 U.S. homes each year.

Here’s Why You Don’t Bring a Taser, a Dog, and Unarmed Cops to a Knife Fight

How freaking stupid is Britain in that it requires their police officers to show up at the scene of a knife-wielding goat-humper unarmed!? That female officer looks like she can barely control the K-9, and the officers are limited to a Taser and maybe a baton.

All of them seem about as dangerous as a wet noodle. The female officers screams like a Banshee Indian because she’s out of her league, and lacks any real weapons to subdue the man.

Why are British cops, in this day and age, not permitted to carry pistols? How many more crazed ‘migrant’ goat-humpers do they have to encounter before they get smart and issue handguns to all their officers? In America, this follower of the pedophile prophet would’ve been ventilated the second he took one step forward toward the officers.

No officer should ever take knife threats lightly. Not only can a determined knife-wielding suspect instantly kill an officer, but knives don’t have to be reloaded. Check out the following video and you’ll see what I mean.

‘End of Watch’ (movie) Opening Scene Shootout Shows Us What NOT to Do

For a movie that was technically accurate about much of the ‘LAPD way,’ the opening scene of the movie ‘End of Watch’ (2012) showed some pretty piss-poor tactics.

As soon as that pursuit ended and when the bullets started flying, the two LAPD officers stepped away from their position of cover and walked right up to the suspects while still engaged in the firefight!?

Yeah, I know it’s just a movie. It’s hollywood. This I do know: No police department, especially LAPD, would ever teach to an officer to step away from a position of cover and expose himself in the heat of battle. It’s best to always return fire from a place of protection instead of leaving it and walking up to the very people who are firing at you.

For now, that’s all she wrote, 10-8.

Women as Cops: Harry Callahan Tried to Warn Us

This is what happens when liberals ignore the innate differences between men and women, and try to place women in positions they were never naturally equipped to fulfill.

I don’t question the sincerity of female police officers. The greater majority of them are hard-working and decent people. But they were never physically designed to do the job, and this is why academy fitness exams have had to be lowered on their behalf. This is why they are so often unable to physically restrain and overcome even medium-sized males. They don’t have the upper-body strength. They don’t have the speed to chase down fleeing suspects and still overcome them once they catch up (if they ever do!). They don’t naturally have a warrior mindset, nor does this even come natural to them.

In my opinion, women in law enforcement belong in a support role (e.g., dispatchers, records clerks, advocates for crime victims, crime scene technicians) and not in a patrol function. They were not designed for the physical aspects of the job, and no matter how much we may try to convince ourselves otherwise, it will never come true.

Don’t focus on the exceptions to the rule, focus on what is normative of most women in law enforcement who are deeply dependent on male officers when it’s time to go ‘hands on.’

Seattle Police Engage in One of the Wildest Police Pursuits and Shootouts Ever!

This is one of the wildest police pursuits and shootouts I’ve ever seen. Kudos to the cop who kept on the carjacking thief, and who drove like a pro! Even when the suspect was firing at them, they kept themselves in the game.

The pursuit began in downtown Seattle and lasted for nearly an hour. Although no one was killed other than the suspect, who was identified as 35-year-old Raymond Azevedo, several collisions occurred as a result of this dangerous high speed chase.

Thankfully, the worthless pile of excrement was ventilated by Seattle’s finest. A review of Azevedo’s criminal record shows prior convictions for theft, vehicle theft, burglary, assault, malicious mischief, and eluding the police. This guy was criminal life and he deserved the end he received. Let him now burn in hell!

No more Sunday drives for him

This pursuit illustrates how crazy and truly dangerous a cop’s job is at times. Anyone wanting to get into police work better first have a passion for the nature of the job, and not just be looking at the pay and generous retirement pension.

I’ve seen many guys get into this line of work solely for the monetary benefits and who become miserable after time because of the constant danger and the wicked pukes one has to deal with on a daily basis. If you don’t love the job, you don’t really belong in it. It’s not for everyone, and the sooner one realizes it, the better off they will be.

This is not intended as a put-down of other career choices, but only to emphasize that chasing bad guys, arresting criminals, issuing citations, and having to interact with some of the world’s most unpleasant people is an integral part of the job. I know it sounds somewhat contradictory, but the ugly nature of police work is something you better like from the start or you will never be a happy camper doing it.

Raymond Azevedo: Can you say Swiss cheese?

Feel Good Video of the Day: New Jersey Cop Bitch-Slaps Idiot in a Bunny Costume Who was Tooting a Loud Air Horn Inside a Police Station

This moron in a bunny costume got what he deserved. The cop is now under investigation and, yeah, it was an unprofessional response on the part of the officer. But I sure enjoyed him bitch-slapping that annoying punk!

The video illustrates, unfortunately, the infantile and utterly asinine ways of today’s young White males. The Left has turned scores of our once masculine males into pansies who will do anything to get attention from others.

They may appear to be grown up (beards and all), but they are like little children in their minds. Like silly and vacuous school girls who giggle over everything, so these two males made complete asses of themselves.

By the way, the  idiot who turned himself in because of a warrant he had not only told everyone his real name, but also provided his date-of-birth too. He shouldn’t get too alarmed in the near future when he becomes a regular victim of identity theft with an array of on-line purchases using his name and DOB all because of this stupid stunt.

Footage of Female Chicago Officer Savagely Beaten by Black Man on PCP

Two quick points here:

(1) I give credit to the White female officer who at least gave a valiant effort to subdue this worthless groid pumped on PCP. In contrast, check out the two overweight Black female officers who don’t seem to know what to do at all. These are your typical Affirmative Action hires, the people whom our police agencies had to lower all the standards for so they could be hired and so no one would accuse them of ‘racism.’

(2) The scenario underscores the uncomfortable reality that women don’t belong in police work, that is, working patrol and handling calls. When the defecation hits the fan, they are more often than not unable to handle the physically demanding requirements of the job.

Due to their size, weight and lack of upper body strength, they are almost always overpowered by males who are determined to fully resist. Thankfully for them, most males comply with their orders, but not all of them. The parolee willing to fight to the death so as not to be arrested and sent back to prison, for example, can easily overpower the average female officer.

More than any of this, most female officers do not know how to fight. Most can’t take a punch, and I’d say the greater majority of them have never even been involved in a fist-fight. Thus, they are wholly unprepared to subdue the average 200 lb. male or those who are much larger and stronger.

To clarify, while I do not believe women should serve in a patrol capacity, I do believe they can serve in a support role as dispatchers, assisting in investigations, public relations, and a host of other ways that still fall under the domain of law enforcement.

For those interested in more of my thoughts, check out my article: ‘Women as Cops: Not Impressed’ from March 17, 2013.

Ever Wonder Why U.S. Cops Take Knife Threats So Seriously? Here’s Your Answer (Warning: Graphic!)

Everything about how these cops handled the situation was wrong from the start. Obviously, their training is very poor (if they’re even trained at all!). As a result, two of the cops were injured and one was killed.

You might want to think about this the next time you criticize the cops for shooting a man wielding a knife. Knives, it must be remembered, don’t have to be reloaded. Depending on who is wielding the knife, debilitating and deadly slashes can be lightening fast. They are easily concealable too.

Maybe all those self-righteous citizens of the People’s Republic of San Francisco ought to reconsider these videos before they condemn SFPD officers for fatally shooting knife-wieldling crazies like Luis Gongora and Mario Woods? They ought to, but they won’t.

How NOT to Do Police Work: Cops Forget to Search Hood-Rat Before Placing Him in Squad Car

Here’s a classic case illustrating the importance of searching everyone who is placed in the rear of your patrol car. The cops, apparently, were giving this inebriated hood-rat a ride home instead of taking his sorry ass to jail. They were actually giving him a break – their first mistake!

The hood-rat, as one might expect, didn’t have the sense to play it cool and just leave his handgun alone. Instead, he pulls it out of his pocket and then drops its on the rear floorboard twice!

The primary lesson here is to always search anyone you place in the rear of your patrol car. This is basic stuff that even the newest academy graduate should know. But cops are human, and they too sometimes slip up.

How NOT to Do Police Work: A Clusterfuck in Chicago!

Is there a problem officer? Yes, yes there is

Hmm, let’s see, how many Chicago police officers here muzzled each other? How many cops deliberately placed themselves in the line of fire? Check out the guy who goes low-crawling toward the van on his own, and then nervously scampers back. What the hell was that?

Is that how Chicago cops do felony, high-risk vehicle stops? Check out the officer who entered the front passenger door while two officers stood directly in front of the windshield with their rifles pointed inside the van’s interior.

Seriously, if one of the officers would have fired into the van, I’m certain all of them would have fired into it and likely not knowing who or what they were shooting at.

Check out how many officers are giving commands to the driver, some of which seem conflicting and assuredly confusing to the occupant. Doesn’t anyone have a P.A. system in which to direct clear commands to the driver?

Whatever supervisory leadership is present at the scene, they seem to have abdicated their role.

I’m sure that Chicago cops are a well-trained bunch. They are professional law enforcement officers and their basic police academy is probably one of the finest in the nation. Still, the video demonstrates how even the best trained officers can sometimes lose perspective when their adrenaline and emotions are high.

Palo Alto (CA) Cops Shoot & Kill Schizophrenic Knife-Wielding Man

This shooting looked like something out of a Hollywood script and seemingly choreographed like one too. But this is reality, and it illustrates just how deadly and dangerous police work can be at times.

Anyone considering going into the law enforcement profession better first think long and hard if they have it in them to take the life of another human being. The job indeed entails serving people and often responding to mundane calls. But it also entails going to these type of calls.

By the way, this footage puts to rest the notion that a man charging with a knife can be easily disarmed. Even though the schizophrenic man had been shot a few times prior to reaching the officer, he still didn’t go down. Those who imagine that it’s easy to take down a knife-wielding psycho need to rethink their assumptions.

Mr. McClellan of Florida joined the meeting after the roll call had been taken.

Mr. Philip White attended, first as a guest, and then as a member of the National Committee from Michigan.

A quorum being present, the National Committee meeting was opened with the Pledge of Allegiance. The Secretary delivered the invocation.

The Secretary reported receiving notice of the election of Philip White of Michigan to the National Committee. The Secretary moved the amendment of the Certified List of National Committee members to add Philip White of Michigan. His motion was seconded by Mr. Lovell and adopted by unanimous vote.

A question was raised as to whether Mr. Anderson of Texas had resigned from the National Committee. The matter was referred to Mr. Pangborn, Chairman of the Texas state party, for clarification.

Mr. Doyle moved the adoption of the Certified List of National Committee members as amended. His motion was seconded by Mr. Lovell and adopted by unanimous vote.

Mr. O'Brian moved the adoption of the Agenda that had been previously circulated. His motion was seconded by Mrs. Lovell and adopted by unanimous vote.

The Chairman gave his report. The bumper stickers have been received by the Secretary and are ready for shipping. The prices, which were set by the Finance Committee per the National Committee's instruction, are $5 each, three for $10 including shipping. However, state parties and candidates can obtain bumper stickers at the reduced rate of $28.85 per hundred including shipping.

The Chairman described the proposals he had obtained for on-line processing of credit card contributions. Two companies, Capital Merchant Solutions, Inc. of Chicago, and US Merchant Systems of Boulder, have provided preliminary proposals. However, final contracts have not been received from both companies.

Mrs. Lovell moved that the Operating Committee be authorized to enter into a contract with either of the two companies after making the final determination which proposal is in the best interests of the party. Her motion was seconded by Mr. Stryker.

Messrs. Moses and Pate moved to table the motion. The motion to table failed.

Mr. McClellan moved to amend the motion to submit the matter to the National Committee for action by written consent (a vote by mail) after both final contracts have been received. His amendment was seconded by Mr. Law. The amendment failed.

Finally, on the main question of whether to submit the matter to the Operating Committee for final disposition, the motion was adopted by unanimous vote of the National Committee.

The Chairman reported on his attendance at the immigration forum. He encouraged the party members to focus on support for the party's candidates during the final three weeks before the election.

Mr. Francis provided an update on the Traficant campaign and the rally scheduled for October 26th at the Allenwood prison facility in Pennsylvania.

The Vice-chairman reported on his trips to Memphis to assist Mr. Edwards in his campaign for the state House of Representatives. Several party members from out of state intend to assist on the ground on election day.

The Secretary delivered his report. He reminded the members that he had previously circulated draft minutes of three National Committee meetings.

Mr. Hey moved the approval of the minutes of the August 8, 2002 meeting of the National Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Ahuja and adopted by unanimous vote.

Mr. Hey moved the approval of the minutes of the August 25, 2002 meeting of the National Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Doyle and adopted by unanimous vote.

Mr. Hey moved the approval of the minutes of the September 5, 2002 meeting of the National Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lovell and adopted by unanimous vote, with Mr. McClellan abstaining.

The Secretary reported more progress on creating the Party Building web site infrastructure, including the addition of statistical reporting. He mentioned briefly some of the figures regarding the number of contacts the party has received and the performance of the party building committee members in recording interactions with those contacts. The detailed statistical reports are being provided to the Party Building Committee chairman for his use in managing the activities of the committee.

The Secretary reported on the increased traffic on the party web site. The month of October will set a record for hits and visits if the current trend continues.

The Chairman delivered a very brief Treasurer's report in the absence of the Treasurer. Since the last report, donations of $220 have been received, and $58 has been expended.

Mr. Lovell moved that the Treasurer reimburse Mr. Charles for the cost of the bumperstickers in the amount of $599. The motion was seconded by Mr. O'Brian and adopted by unanimous vote.

The Chairman reported a balance of $3267 in the party bank account.

Mrs. Winters delivered the Public Relations Committee report. The logo contest is being organized and the proposals will be circulated for the voting/bidding process.

The newsletter is almost ready to send to the printer. A discussion was held regarding efforts to obtain and exploit "free" media such as talk radio and cable access programming.

There being no further business, upon motion made by Mr. Pangborn, seconded by Mrs. Weatherford, and adopted by unanimous vote, the Chairman declared the meeting adjourned.

Biography of Shel Silverstein

Shel Silverstein

Shel Silverstein (1932 - 1999)

As Edwin McDowell reported in the New York Times Book Review (8 Nov 1981), Silverstein "for several years now... has refused interviews and publicity tours, and he even asked his publisher not to give out any biographical information about him." What is known about Silverstein, however, is that he was born in Chicago (Illinois) in 1932, is divorced and has one daughter. Most of what is known about his views and opinions, aside from what may be interpreted from his works, comes from a Publisher's Weekly (24 Feb 1975) interview with Jean F. Mercier. Silverstein discussed the roots of his career in his childhood with Mercier:

"When I was a kid - 12, 14, around there - I would much rather have been a good baseball player or a hit with the girls. But I couldn't play ball, I couldn't dance... So, I started to draw and to write. I was... lucky that I didn't have anyone to copy, be impressed by. I had developed my own style, I was creating before I knew there was a Thurber, a Benchley, a Price and a Steinberg. I never saw their work till I was around 30."

Silverstein's talents were already well-developed by the time he served in the US armed forces during the 1950s. He was stationed in Japan and Korea, and while in the military, he was a cartoonist for the Pacific edition of the military newspaper, Stars And Stripes. After his stint in the military, Silverstein became a cartoonist for Playboy in 1956. His work for that magazine has resulted in some published collections, such as A Playboy's Teevee Jeebies and More Playboy's Teevee Jeebies (Do It Yourself Dialogue for the Late Late Show).

Silverstein did not begin writing for children until he penned Uncle Shelby's Story of Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back, published in 1963. He confided to Mercier:

"I never planned to write or draw for kids. It was Tomi Ungerer, a friend of mine, who insisted... practically dragged me, kicking and screaming, into [editor] Ursula Nordstrom's office. And she convinced me that Tomi was right, I could do children's books."

Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back is the story of a lion who obtains a hunter's gun and practices until he becomes a good enough marksman to join a circus. A Publisher's Weekly (28 Oct 1963) reviewer called the bool "a wild, free-wheeling, slangy tale that most children and many parents will enjoy immensely", and it met with moderate success, as did Silverstein's Uncle Shelby's A Giraffe and a Half (1964).

But Silverstein achieved fame as a children's writer after the publication of The Giving Tree in 1964. The book had been rejected by editor William Cole who felt that the book fell between adults' and children's literature and would never sell. In Silverstein's eyes it was a story about two people; one gives and the other takes. Ultimately, both adults and children embraced the book. The story of a tree that gives its shade, fruit, branches, and finally its trunk to make a little boy happy, The Giving Tree had slow sales at first, but its audience steadily grew. As Richard R. Lingeman reported in the New York Times Book Review (30 April 1978), "Many readers saw a religious symbolism in the altruistic tree; ministers preached sermons on The Giving Tree; it was discussed in Sunday schools." But feminist critics later saw something else in Silverstein's tale; as Barbara A. Schram noted in Interracial Books for Children (Vol. 5, No. 5, 1974): "By choosing the female pronoun for the all-giving tree and the male pronoun for the all-taking boy, it is clear that the author did indeed have a prototypical master / slave relationship in mind... How frightening that little boys and girls who read The Giving Tree will encounter this glorification of female selflessness and male selfishness." Nevertheless, the book remains popular with both children and adults.

In the late 1960s Silverstein became also known for being a composer and lyricist of songs, including "A Boy Named Sue" (sung by Johnny Cash, 1969), "One's On The Way", "The Unicorn" (sung by the Irish Rovers), "Boa Constrictor", "So Good To So Bad", "Sylvia's Mother" (sung by Dr. Hook, 1972), "The Great Conch Train Robbery", and "Yes, Mr. Rogers".

Albums of Silverstein's songs recorded by others include FREAKIN' AT THE FREAKER'S BALL [Columbia] (1972), SLOPPY SECONDS [Columbia] (1972), DR. HOOK [Columbia] (1972) and BOBBY BARE SINGS LULLABYS, LEGENDS AND LIES (THE SONGS OF SHEL SILVERSTEIN) [RCA Victor] (1973).

Albums of original motion picture scores include Ned Kelly [United Artists] (1970), Who Is Harry Kellerman And Why Is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me? [Columbia] (1971), in which Silverstein even played a role, Thieves (1977) and Postcards from the Edge (1996). Other recordings include Drain My Brain [Cadet] (), Dirty Feet [Hollis Music] (1968), Shel Silverstein (Songs And Stories) [Casablanca] (1978) and The Great Conch Train Robbery [] (1980).

In 1974 Silverstein published a collection of poems for children called Where The Sidewalk Ends. Bringing him comparisons to the likes of Dr. Seuss and Edward Lear, Where The Sidewalk Ends contained humorous efforts such as "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout / Would Not Take the Garbage Out", "Dreadful" and "Band-Aids". Kay Winters lauded the author's achievement in The Reading Teacher: "With creatures from the never-heard, Ickle Me Pickle Me, Tickle Me too, the Mustn'ts, Hector the Collector and Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout (who would not take th garbage out), Silverstein's funny bone seems to function wherever he goes." She further noted that Where The Sidewalk Ends "is an ideal book for teachers to have handy." The book has proved popular with child readers as well; it continues to sell many copies, as does Silverstein's 1981 follow-up collection of poems, The Light In The Attic. Publisher's Weekly called the latter book "a big, fat treasure for Silverstein devotees, with trenchant verses expressing high-flown, exhilarating nonsense as well as thoughts unexpectedly sober and even sad."

Silverstein's 1976 picture book, The Missing Piece, like The Giving Tree, was subject to varying interpretations. It chronicles the adventures of a circle with a wedge of itself missing, who goes along singing and searching for that missing part. But after the circle finds the right wedge, he decides he was happier on the search - without the missing piece - than he is with it. As Anne Roiphe explained in The New York Times Book Review (2 May 1976), The Missing Piece can be read in the same way as "the fellow at the singles bar explaining why life is better if you don't commit yourself to anyone for too long - the line goes that too much togetherness turns people into bores - that creativity is preserved by freedom to explore from one relationship to another... This fable can also be interpreted to mean that no one should try to find all the answers, no one should hope to fill all the hopes in themselves, achieve total transcendental harmony or psychic order because a person without a search, loose ends, internal conflicts and external goals becomes to smooth to enjoy or know what's going on. Too much satisfaction blocks exchange with the outside." Silverstein published a sequel, The Missing Piece Meets The Big O, in 1981. The latter book is told from the missing piece's point of view; as in the original, the book's protagonist discovers the value of self-sufficiency. A new book for children, Falling Up, was published in 1996. Silverstein illustrates his own books with black-and-white line drawings. Being himself a book collector, he takes the feel and look - the paper, the type, the binding - of his titles very seriously. He does not allow his books to be published in paperback. But this hasn't hurt his popularity: Silverstein has 14 million copies in print.

Since 1981, Silverstein has concentrated on writing plays for adults. One of his best known, The Lady or the Tiger Show (1981), about a television producer who goes to unbelievable lengths to get his ratings up, has been performed on its own and in a group of one-acts entitled Wild Life (1983). Silverstein has also collaborated on the screenplay Things Change (1988) with playwright David Mamet.

Shel Silverstein died on 10 May 1999 from a heart attack.
