End of 2008

Toren Anderson has succeeded in winning me an interview on Good Day Atlanta 12/29/08. The show airs between 7:00 am and 9:00 am. Please tune in if you can.

George Scott is a long-time pro in the book business. He has given me some great insights and tips. If you are book shopping, please drop by Eagle Eye Books at the corner of Clairmont and North Decatur Roads and look at their selection of 10,000 titles (including both of my books.)

I appreciate the support that all of you have given me in my writing, and the positive feedback. Please feel free to enter a critique on Amazon if you enjoyed my work. I am discussing a non-fiction book Creating Order out of Chaos with a publisher. I will keep you posted on progress (if any.)

I have 2 more manuscripts that are ready for publication once we have a better idea how Pervis and JJ will be received.

I hope that all of you had a great 2008, and that our stock market losses are reversed in 2009. It's only money, right?

Entry Four

Thanks to all of you who visited Debbie and me at the book signing at doodlebugz in Marietta November 29. And thanks to all of you who have bought my books as a Christmas gift for the business person in your life who is so hard to buy for. On December 6 I have another signing at Miller's Men's Store in Buckhead. Please drop by. (Miller's was recently featured on Good Day Atlanta - neat place!) I also will be at Eagle Eye Book Store December 20 for New Southern Author's Day.

The Northside Neighbor had a nice article in their November 19 edition on my writing. Cathy Johnson opened with (I paraphrase) "you would have to be a little goofy to think that manufacturing plants are interesting," then goes on to explain why I have that perspective. If you want to see the article, let me know and I will e-mail you a copy.

I appreciate your feedback. If you enjoyed the books, please take a minute to prepare a rating on Amazon.

The bad economy has precipitated a joke drought. There is an old Lewis Grizzard tale that comes to mind right now. Lewis had a friend who decided to run for public office. Lewis asked "Bob, why would you go into a profession where everyone assumes that you are a liar and a crook?" Bob replied, "Lewis! I am a lawyer now!"

Keep reading about Freddie. Maybe he can solve a future business mystery with a politician in it.
