This page is the busiest page across my whole website. This is where you can always find all the latest updates. Monday’s & Tuesday’s are basically my weekend days. So there may not be any updates posted during those days.
This home page serves as a common connection point (hub) and provides details and links to all of my other websites and blogs related to my ebooks and other projects, plus my social media pages, and favorite content around the internet.
In the past, I found it difficult at times to try and explain all of the different projects I may be working on at any given time. So I created this dedicated website just for that purpose.
DDAVIDD.com was officially established on the morning of Sunday, August 9th, 2020 @ 7:55 A.M. CST.

The information provided below will explain briefly what ebooks I write and make available, as well as the various blogs that I maintain.
MUDPIX 📸 MAGAZINE (My #1 Priority Photo Ebook Series)
My outdoor photography ebooks are what I love creating the most. In 2016, I began my journey of photographing the scenery, wildlife, and people (boaters, fishermen, and shore dwellers) around Lake Harding and West Point Lake in Alabama and Georgia. This ebook series is a journal of the photos I’ve taken in chronological order. There is no other ebook series like it on this planet. Start your collection now. Currently there are two issues available in this ebook series.
Visit my MUDPIX MAGAZINE website for more information.
Progress update: Two ebooks in this series have been published. The next ebook is currently in pending status for editing.
UNSPLASHED (Ebook Series)
I am a big fan of the Unsplash.com stock photography platform, but even bigger fan of many of the photographers who generously donate their photos to the platform for anyone to use for nearly any purpose including creating ebooks with them. My ebooks in this free series is one where I pick out a photographer to feature along with his or her photos. I publish this ebook series in the spirit of promoting others who are into photography like I am, and also to provide my ebook viewers with unique ebooks they won’t find anywhere else. I currently have one ebook in this series published and it’s available in my Gumroad ebook store.
Upcoming UNSPLASHED will feature photography by: Patrick Hodskins, & Woody Kelly (others to be listed).
Progress update: One ebook in this series has been published. The next ebook is currently in pending status for editing.
ENCYCLOPEDIA OF WIKIPEDIA (Ebook Series)
I began writing this ebook series in June 2020. The Encyclopedia of Wikipedia (EOW) is a monthly chronological journal of the trending topics, and curated collection of topics found on Wikipedia. The inspiration for starting this ebook project stems from my late childhood to early teenage years when I loved to sit and flip through pages of encyclopedias and read the articles they contained. My purpose for this project is to journalize the monthly trending topics on Wikipedia that has the most impact on society and provide that information to those who are interested.
Visit the Encyclopedia Of Wikipedia website for more information.
Progress update: This ebook is currently published monthly, and the next volume is in the works. I try to to get these published by the 27th of each month.
KALEIDOSCOPE ART (Ebook – Possible Series)
This ebook features some kaleidoscope art I’ve created on my Galaxy S8+ Android Phone. It contain over 1,000 art images with over 1,100 pages. It’s a huge ebook, and fans of symmetrical art will love it.
Progress update: This ebook was completed in September 2020. You can find it in my ebook store at Gumroad. A 2nd ebook is planned to start a series. It will be about half the length of the first ebook
PROJECT S.O.A.R. (Ebook Series)
Sunsets On Andrews Road is the title of a photo ebook series I began in 2012, but have never actually gotten around to publishing. It’s about stopping on the side of a road to watch beautiful sunsets, and photographing them. I took over 3,000 photos for this ebook series. My plans are to publish each ebook in this series with about 500 photos each. More info to come.
Progress update: CURRENT MAIN EBOOK PROJECT – This ebook is in it’s first phase of production – photo editing. No other info available currently.
EARTHCAM DIGEST (Livecam Photo Blog)
In 2020 I developed a great fondness for watching the outdoor livecams provided by earthcam.com via it’s website, and it’s Android App (I purchased the pro version to support them). This blog is one I started on July 23rd, 2020 and is where I post livecam shots from the Earthcam app whenever time permits me to check and watch the cams, and also post photos.

BAD ASS TRUCKS
I’m not a mechanic, and I can’t fix big automobile problems, but I like cool trucks! This is a blog I established on the morning of Saturday, September 12th, 2020 @ 2:45 AM CST. On this blog, I will be posting a monthly photo (monthly because it’s the best fit in my blogging schedule) of some cool trucks I see on Instagram.

Random Things
I am constantly running across things on the internet that I like to share, that you may find interesting, and this spot on my home page is where I share them first in the form of short micro-blogs. These are “internet crumbs”, and snippets of info. Just enough to give you a clue of what’s interesting. This section on my home page makes it simple for you to find the newest things I see when I’m browsing the internet before they are archived on my blog. These “Random Things” are updated in real time, and are timestamped when I add them.
Check here daily as I post new things often.

Disclaimer: On my blog, I often choose photo headers for my blog posts that don’t match the topics I’m writing about. These header images usually come from unsplash.com as I love to use the stock photography there for my blog posts, and also to credit/link some talented photographers. This habit is most displayed in my “Just Thinking” blog category.
