Many of you well know that I have been attempting to find an agent or publisher for my most recent novel, a thriller which I thought was pretty topical: the US military releases a biological weapon into the water supply of Russian Ukraine.
Alas, those well known fellas whose names scream out at you from the airport bookracks seem to have a lock on these kinds of easy-reading, non-literary page turners. So I have sent it back to the estimable Howard Wells, my editor (do not remind me he is in Ohio, not known as the hotbed of literary criticism) and next year I will self-publish this book. I am still looking for a decent title; right now it is called “Event” and it may stay that way.
As this will be my first novel, I do hope it gets some traction. It will be in paper and I may sneak it onto airport book racks when no one is looking.
