New Book!
I'm pleased to share that my novel, ONLY THE STRONG, has been acquired by Agate Bolden, a Chicago-based publisher. ONLY THE STRONG tells the intertwined stories of a retired "leg-breaker," his kingpin boss, a sainted community pediatrician, and her headstrong young protege, set against a '70s backdrop of rapid social and political change. I'll post more news when I have an official pub date.

Tom and me
Learned while reading Jay Winik's The Great Upheaval that Thomas Jefferson, like me, suffered from horrendous migraines. Just thinking about that makes my head hurt. . .
