First let me say thanks to all of you who keep checking in with me and this site. I understand that I haven't been here to update this page in a while.
Okay... So let me explain...
For those of you who've had it, you know that there is little to compare with Nerve Pain. Since March I have been dealing with a pair of bad disc's in my neck and the resulting pinched nerves. Because of this, the pain radiating down my arm and into my hand, I have done little of anything over the last 6 months. Truly, my left hand felt like it was filled with broken glass. This made even the most mondane things, from typing to playing guitar to petting my dogs, in a word, excruciating.
As I write this I sit here in a hard neck collar, recovering from surgery to fix the problem. I must give many Kudos to the Doctors and crew at Yale New Haven Medical Center. I believe that if Humpty Dumpty had them to care for him there'd be a whole different Nursery Rhyme. Also, the folks at Sam Ash Music, my job in the Real World, who have been unbelievably understanding - THANKS! To my wife Jessica, there are no words of thanks that begin to cover the Herculean effort of tending to my care over this ordeal. I simply say I love you, and hope it's enough.
Anyway, I am making progress daily and the pain in my arm is all but gone. It feels good to be typing this and not wincing with every keystroke.
So what's the deal with PUSH and EMPTY SHELLS, you ask?
PUSH is still available on Amazon and if you haven't picked up your copy yet... what are you waiting for?
EMPTY SHELLS has been going slowly, but I am making progress. Maybe while I am home healing I'll be able to cover some ground. I'd like to say it'll be done by early 2010, my target is to compete in the Amazon Breakthrough Novelist Award competition in February. I'll keep you posted...
