I have a moderately boring life, but, like many people, I'm careful to follow my routine.

I haven't written a book yet, I had been so busy raising my children that I just didn't seem to ever have the time but now that they are grown and have given me 12 granchildren, I have been seriously thinking about it. I do have so some short childrens stories and I have tons of poetry and lyrics.Now I am going to have to study up on how to go about puting it together and finding out where to and how to get it published.
I'm really glad we have meet. It's nice to be able to converse with another person about the many facets of the human mind.

Thanks for the email and as usual I screwed up sending a note to you in reply.
I guess that I got too wordy.
My book is a murder mystery and has two or so books in 1 and the agent at the time said that I needed to have a copy editor. Well, my wife and I went on to learn how to do this and in the columns I do we are about 95 to 98% accurate according to my Newspaper Editor who does my copy.
The book needs to come off the shelf and be written in an up to date style. The main characters will stay but the others? Well, they shift like the wind.
Thanks for the add....

Thanks so much for the add. It's nice to meet you, too. :-)
Looks like you have a signing near me in November. I'll have to see if I can make it there. :-)
