Yes, it has been a long time since I've posted on here. I'd like to apologize sincerely to my many, many fans.
Seriously, I've been busy. I'm now doing freelance writing work for FurnaceCompare.com. I write and edit series and brand profiles and reviews for furnaces, central air conditioners, heat pumps, water heaters, etc., along with writing and editing articles. Here's an article about buying a central air conditioner that I wrote last week. Not the most exciting topic to some people, but I'm enjoying it. It'll do until my novels start climbing the bestseller lists. So if you want to help me out, go to Amazon.com and buy my books!
I've had a few Sanford News columns recently, as well. My latest column, from last week's Sanford News, is about all the jobs I've had and the one's I'm glad I didn't have. And a few weeks ago I wrote a column about the NFL that I think is one of my best.
As far as my fiction writing, I have been struggling with a novel for almost a year and I finally shelved it. Maybe I'll come back to it, maybe not. But now I'm writing a novel, set in 1976, about a summer camp director whose band is on the verge of being signed to a record contract. It's going well, I'm hoping to have the first draft finished by the end of the year but that may be pushing it.
Stephen King is having a book signing event in Portland next month and I'm hoping to go. Maybe I'll give him a signed copy of one of my books. Maybe not. But someday.
