“CADILLAC’S COMIN’ ” NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK!!!

Not that the world has been waiting for this with its tongue hanging out, but I’ve finally decided to make Cadillac’s Comin’ available in paperback. This is my experimental rockabilly novel, and it’s been available only as an ebook since its publication a few years ago. But I recently got my brain wrapped around the Kindle […]

CHECKS IN THE MAIL!

Yesterday, I received two pieces of mail, each containing a check, that grabbed my attention. Not because they were checks, but because they conveyed a larger message.
