Out one evening at his neighborhood bar, the man strikes up conversation with a woman. She's not his usual type a little older (closer to his age, in fact) and on the heavy side but after several minutes they are caught up in a kind of exciting conversation he never experienced with his old girlfriend. As their relationship unfolds and blossoms in new and rewardi! ng ways, the man wavers between the sincerity and depth of the woman versus the frivolous and surface sexuality of his girlfriend, and it is his trusty cat who illuminates the right path. The Bachelor's Cat is charming, emotional and rife with life's important lessons.
The Short Course in Beer was published by Kunati in June 2009. It's a book about beer, and it's also a book about awareness. Beer is a wonderful part of our daily lives and we often use it without allowing it to enliven us. Beer could be a joy and more often it's just a drug. We can do better.
My most recent novel is called bang BANG. It's the story of a woman who takes justice into her own hands and fights the rising tide of gun violence in American cities. Last year, The New Short Course in Wine was published by Prentice Hall. It's a book for anyone who wants to get wise to the ways of wine and do it quickly. My first book was a novel, a love story called The Bachelor's Cat. It's about, um.... a bachelor who finds a stray....you guessed it, a cat. it's out of print now, so I think you can pick up a copy for about a dollar. maybe fifty cents. if you get one for less, please let me know. if the going price ever drops below a quarter, i'm going to start bragging about it.
