At 16 I dreamed of being an author but simply never could develop the necessary discipline. Couldn't happen to a nicer, more deserving guy!

I have done a bit of writing here and there, got some published over the years and I know it is very, very hard work.

Well, I actually can't dance, but you'll get the sentiment. And don't forget: Someone was wrong.

Oh, and P. S. Just bought it, too!

I'm so happy for you, and I suspect that our The Wiley and Excellent Boy Cat Named Ginger (who can probably read, since he is a genius cat) is, too!

It's a novelette. I have a young adult book called Pitch coming in August/September. I can't wait on that one. It will be a real printed book with my name on it. That's got me geeking out.
