Hi Everyone,
A lot has happened in the intervening months since I last posted here.   First, two exciting pieces of news:

Sideways, the original novel, is coming out as a beautiful hardcover from my publisher Blackstone Publishing in March of this year (2023).  A month later, my Sideways Chile will also come out as a hardcover.  Neither book has ever been published in hardcover before.  Please go to my Online Bookstore to order copies of them, as well as my other books (The Archivist, etc.).  All my novels will be autographed, and you will have the option for me to include a personalized inscription of your own creation (no guardrails on what you request!  Get imaginative!  Go to the dark side!)

Second big news item:  I just returned from a six-month trip to New Zealand where I was researching my new novel, Sideways NZ: The Road Back.  The first draft is done (!) and the scheduled publication date is late 2023!  Miles (Paul Giamatti in the movie) and Jack are on a book tour / road trip from hell, in a campervan.  And that’s just the thumbnail.  And, yes, I took that campervan trip from the south of the South Island to the north of the North Island; no stone unturned by this writer.  Stay tuned for updates.  Visit me on social media.

With the 20 Year Anniversary release of Sideways coming in Oct. 2024, the next two years are shaping up to be a true celebration.
