Revised Edition Will Be Published Here
Today is August 4, 2008. Twenty-nine years, eight months and two weeks ago, 913 Americans lost their lives in what, at that time, was history's largest mass murder/suicide. In 1998, I wrote The Ghosts of November.
I finished revising my book over a year ago. I tried to find an agent to represent my work. I gave up after making over 100 inquiries. I was equally unsuccessful in personally locating a publisher.
Unfortunately, the 30th anniversary of the Jonestown Massacre is quickly approaching and it is too late to get the book published before that November 18 date. With my ability to write and type deteriorating due to Parkinson's Disease, I have decided to publish the entire revised manuscript here on this blog.
I will begin this task in September and hope to complete it by the anniversary date. Please come back then and read it. If you know anyone else who may be interested in the b ook, please refer them to this blog.
Thank you.
