TL;DR: My friend, from the other side of the country, woke me up in the best possible way. He wrote me a SONG!!

Sometimes I do things when no one is looking.
We Don’t Steal. We Know How To Ask.
TL;DR: My Dede was a fascinating character. While he was a profoundly flawed individual, my Mother and I loved him with boundless devotion. The lessons he passed down continue to shape the way we look at the world, and remind us who we are.
Lets Make a Deal
TL;DR: The electronic version of my book is now available in the form of an ePub through Smashwords.com. That format is supported by tablets and macs, Nook, Kobo, and Sony Reader. It costs 99cents, but I’d like to give it to you for free. Continue reading “Lets Make a Deal”
A Quick Update
The book has been sent to the printers. Not long now.

TL;DR: I originally posted about this on my old site, waaaaaay back in 2003. It explains why I try my best to be gentle, giving, and kind to everyone with whom I come in contact. Just in case.
