Eagle Peak Press, the main site, has been updated with news feeds from Amnesty International and the Earth Charter Initiative. More updates coming soon there and here as well by the New Year. Trying to improve the content.

Yes, that is what I am suffering from.  I have been sitting in front of my computer for too many hours yesterday and today–oh, and Monday as well.  Who would have thought that the most tired part of the body resulting from promoting a book could be the butt.  So for that reason, I must [...]

I plan on dribbling out updates to the next book on www.eaglepeakpress.com, starting soon.  Soon, of course, can be a relative term and in this case it most likely is–since I also need to keep getting out the word on Waiting for Westmoreland.  Which reminds me, if you have read it please help me out [...]

Just in case you didn’t notice over on the right sidebar, the booksigning at Whispering Bear got bumped to January 5th. Still on a Saturday from 1-5.  Tentatively, I will be at the Borders Express in Springfield Mall, Springfield, Virginia, a week later–time to be determined.

Although I still have a lot to do in promoting Waiting for Westmoreland, I am eager to get started on the next book. I want to get it out before the 2008 general election campaigns. So let me give you a little flavor of how this fable might go. Once upon a time, in a great and powerful [...]

The bile, the anger rises only occasionally–when I read an op ed or news article that brings the reality of the abuses to my consciousness. Torture. Blackwater. George Bush praising General Musharraff’s grasp of democracy. Warrantless wiretaps. Secret detentions. Legal proceedings that Franz Kafka could not have imagined happening here. Lies and deceptions about why we started [...]

What, that again?  Yes.  OK readers, time to promote.  It’s been two months now since the book hit the internet and now it’s available online in Europe and Asia–at least in the UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Taiwan and elsewhere.  So if you have read it already, please let your overseas friends know about it.  Oh, and [...]

OK, what the hell is a guy doing writing about this?  Well after the last couple of posts, I thought it was time to lighten up (very punny, haha).  But seriously, this a good story line that I stuck in my writing topics folder for future use.  Let’s be clear here, I am not talking [...]

I am short on things to say today.  I am fighting a cold I caught promoting Waiting for Westmoreland at the 30th reunion of my law school class this past weekend.  Too much handshaking and intermittent nibbling will do that to me every time.  I am supposed to be expanding the content on the websites, [...]

Too busy, too busy–I missed posting yesterday and all I can do today is marketing. Yes, but I must. Waiting for Westmoreland, is now available (online only, so far; although you can get in-store pickup at Borders) at Barnes and Noble, as well as Borders.  That is in addition to Amazon.com and Lulu.com.  So if you [...]
