New interview posted

Well, I'm back from a great trip to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Thanks again to Carl and all of the wonderful men I met at Outwords Books. It was a wonderful experience. I love having the opportunity to connect with the folks who are enjoying the Handyman books.

In the meantime, for everyone else, there is a new interview with me posted at Reader Views regarding the latest book, The Handyman's Promise, and the books in general. Click on this link to read it:

Happy summer reading, folks! I've got a stack of new books myself, and if any of them really rings my bell I'll be sure and let you know about here.

The sad but honest truth is that most writers need to supplement their income with something other than writing. I've worked in the radio industry since the tender age of sixteen, and for the same two radio stations for the past twelve years. We call it The Hotel California -- you can check out but you can never leave! It's amazing how people go, but then seem to come back at some time, including me. Radio has been good to me, and although there are still times I regret not sticking with the writing thing at an earlier age, it's been an interesting ride.

Things I'm Enjoying....

Songs from '08-'09 I Think Are Cool

Second Chance - Shinedown

Show Me What I'm Looking For - Carolina Liar

Chasing Pavements - Adele

Mercy - Duffy

Apologize (fea OneRepublic) - Timbaland

Stop And Stare - OneRepublic

And of course, the Oldies But Goodies I've recently added to my Ipod:

After the Love is Gone - Earth, Wind & Fire

Baby Come Back - Player

The End of the World - Skeeter Davis

The Edge of Seventeen - Stevie Nicks

We Don't Talk Anymore - Cliff Richard

Le Freak - Chic

Dance With You -- Carrie Lucas

The Heart to Break the Heart -- France Joli

Dancin' The Night Away -- Voggue

In The Bush -- Musique

I Wanna Be Your Lover -- Prince

We're On the Right Track -- Ultra High Frequency

The Break - Kat Mandu

Forever - Pete Drake (This is the strangest MP3 I have ever purchased on Itunes. I can't decide if it was taken directly from a really abused master tape, or recorded from an LP. The right channel actually drops out about fifty seconds into the song. Bootlegs on Itunes? Can it be? Oh well. It's one of my favorite songs from the early 60's, so I paid $1.29 to have it on my Ipod, but I don't recommend anyone else pay for it unless they love it as much as I do.)
