Author at book signing in Moriarty, New Mexico

Welcome to the official homepage for New Mexico author John L. Thompson, where it is said his beautifully written prose can bring a tear to the eye. I am just kidding. He enjoys sharing his stories with readers and artists. He recommends beginning your reading journey with his novel Truck Stop.

Be sure to check out the website often. We are constantly working on adding new material.

The Latest

If you notice the website is undergoing some changes. I’ve deleted the blog post section for the time being. I’ve also deleted multiple social media accounts as they are all mostly dumpster fires and have limited reader reach capabilities unless you pay to play. I do not see any use for them anymore. The only social media connections we will maintain are Facebook(regretfully) and the YouTube channel Shop Talk.

Future news about book releases will be posted here on the Welcome page. We are working on the webpage and some links and appearances might not look or function correctly. We’re working on it.

Writer’s Quote of the Month

Mark Twain

Substitute ‘damn’ every time you’re inclined to write ‘very;’ your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be.
