What do I know?

The paucity of bad news from the war zone has caused an almost complete blackout of news about the war.  As if not reporting it makes the good news from the theater go away.  Here’s something you will only see on the Army home page.  An example of how the “I support the troops” thing [...]

READING, WRITING, PROMO and LIVING

Because I’m doing a Virtual Book Tour in February for my latest books, Smell of Death, I’ve been writing articles and responding to various interviews for the many blogs I’ll be visiting. Though enjoyable, it takes a lot of time. Time that I don’t have for working on my book in progress.
The bad thing about [...]

Archive appearance: The Joe Mazza Show

I was one of the guests last week on The Joe Mazza Show, a popular late night talk show heard on over 400 radio stations across the country. We talked about James Garner, David Janssen, Tom Brady, the New England Patriots, television old versus new, and a whole lot more. If you missed the broadcast, [...]

Remembering Suzanne Pleshette

Suzanne Pleshette was, with the possible exception of Barry Morse, the most fun and down-to-earth person I talked to for my book The Fugitive Recaptured. She answered her own phone; she laid her cards right on the table; there was absolutely no pretense about her. She spoke to me several times over the phone for the [...]

MÁS QUE UN JUEGO

Si le llamaba ahora le molestaría, lo sabía. Se acercó al ventanal y sacó el teléfono móvil de su bolso, movida por un impulso espontáneo de despedida. Su figura desnuda se recortaba al trasluz de las cortinas y el tenue reflejo moldeaba sus contornos redondeados. Así la encontró Bruno al [...]

Cuando la mente vuela…por Gema Moraleja Paz, recordad el mensaje….

Cuando la mente vuela
Cuando la mente vuela
hacia el infinito
recordamos en lo más
profundo del alma
el pasado y limamos
asperezas, despertando
el daño para limpiarlo.
Tal vez caminando
hacia el futuro, evolucionamos
como humanos,
humanos somos con
cuerpo, lágrimas y caminos
que a veces nunca andamos
y elegimos otra ruta
para volver a encontrarnos.

And So the New Year Begins

Hard to believe, it’s actually 2008! Now the challenge is to remember that and put it on my communications and checks.
What are you looking forward to in this coming year? For myself, I’m hoping the year includes continued good health–always something to think about when you get to be my age.
However, I’m always optimistic [...]

NOCHE DE MAGIA

…Melchor señaló aún más hacia el norte.
-¡Ahí está!
Pero Baltasar le colocó los prismáticos al derechas.
-No, está ahí.
Gaspar carraspeó, conteniéndose la risa, al tiempo que las tres monturas encaminaban sus pasos duna abajo…
Mucho antes de atisbar la ciudad el ruido ya delató su presencia. [...]
