Or not. Whatever.

But, I am thinking about restarting this blog, provided there is anyone still out there. So, check back if you are so inclined. I might actually write something.

Finally, some good news

I'm proud and humbled to announce that I have signed with literary agent Laney Katz Becker from Lippincott, Massie, McQuilkin Inc. in New York City.

Laney is one of the most-sought agents in the world, and is known throughout the publishing industry for discovering debut authors and propelling them to best-seller status. She has been my "dream agent" for a long, long time. It's truly an honor to now have her guiding my new career.

I know I've been ignoring my blog the past year or so, but I've spent that time polishing and revising my manuscript, The Final Victim. I got really tired of coming on here and whining, when I really should have been rolling up my sleeves and working toward my goal.

Thanks to EVERYONE who helped me with beta reading and general support during the last couple of years. I have some minor clean-up work to do on the book in the next week and then Laney will begin preparations to pitch the book to publishing houses.

This is one of the best days of my life, and I am celebrating with a good cigar and some tunes on Spotify. GOOD AND LOUD. And then it's back to work ...

Who are you? Einstein?

"In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity." -- Albert Einstein, 1879.

Just a reminder

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt

Merry Christmas. Or whatever ...

OK. I'm going to be politically incorrect here and wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!

However.

For those of you who do not celebrate Christmas, Happy Holidays!

For those of you who do not recognize the holiday season, Happy Weekend!

For those of you do not recognize weekends, Happy Saturday!

For those of you who ...

Well, you get the idea. From my family to yours, Happy Whatever!
