Hope, sadness, inspiration.

Much has happened since October 2006.
- An invite to send the first pages of thirty pages of Harry Flash to Bleak House Books. (I didn’t more later.)
- Six months of trips back and forth to the UK, doing what I could both during the illness and after the passing of someone I cared for deeply, blew my writing spirit and taught me the value of family.
- Naturalization, fingerprints, interviews and soon an oath of allegiance.
- More articles for Lincoln Journal in first four months of 2007 than in last six of 2006. I expect that to slow now they have a new editor, but hey, it was sure fun having all those deadlines and expanding the scope of writing.
- Meeting and learning from great authors including Peter Abrahams and NPR’s Bill Littlefield.
- A new focus - on publishing beyond newsletters and local newspapers?
Sometimes people misunderstand me.

Here’s a link to one the posts I later developed for public consumption at the WriteStuff group
AEIB (An Englishman In Boston): A trick question?
I will publish the full piece later.
