Something to write home about

"If you thought that you were making your way
To where the puzzles and pagans lay
I'll put it together: It's a strange invitation"

First, I want to thank all of you out there. I appreciate the support and feedback, and I think without this blog and your comments I wouldn't have made it.

As I said in my last post, for a long time I preferred the tag "aspiring writer" because of fears of the label "failed writer." Well, I don't know if I'll ever be a successful writer, but right now I'm definitely just fine with the term "writer."

It's thirty chapters, and in Times New Roman 12-point font it's 199 pages (though because of weird paragraph indents in the first 12-15 chapters it's probably a bit longer).

So now I have my reading list, which I'll follow by reading "The Chronicles of Boston Thomas: A Sci-Fi Space Western Action-Adventure Extravaganza." (I think I'm going to change the title to "Boston Thomas, Space Hero.") This will likely be sometime after I get back from Vegas in mid-September. Then I'll have to decided whether I want to spend the next several months editing the book into something worthwhile, or jump into writing the next book.

Anyway, I might not be posting every day like I have been for the moment, but the blog will keep running.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot: For those of you still thinking the book will be good, I'm taking pre-orders now. Just send $20 and you'll be among the first to own your very own copy.
