Steve, I am so sorry to be out of touch–lots of health problems. That said, how is the sequel? Finished? If so, send me a digital copy and I’ll review the trilogy. It will be a while, as my website is under reconstruction, but there’s only Darrell in the queue ahead of you. Congrats on all your speaking engagements.
Dean, I’ve finished the next book and have sent it to the publisher. As soon as they are happy with the version and we have a publication date, I’ll send you a copy. Thanks! Hope your health issues are resolved.
