Excerpts from Cooper's Moon

It's the new year, and I've been up every night writing--my New Year's resolution is to write at a decent hour. For me the best time is late at night--there are no distractions then. 

IBlood Moon Rising, my second novel in the Cooper's Moon trilogy, is finished. We are waiting for the artist to render her cover and interior work. Cathleen Elliott, the designer, is magnificent.   www.flyleafdesign.com -- Check out her book covers when she was art director at Oxford University Press, NYC.  Now she is doing indie work for various publishers. 


I'll be sharing with you experiences that I have on the way to writing the Cooper Series--the good, the bad, and the ugly.  Mostly it's been a good trip. I hope you'll enjoy it with me and share your ideas along the way. I will look forward to your comments. 

By the way, many thanks to my agent, Tris Coburn, for his hard work in shopping my books to selected publishers. He has always given me sound advice, and for that I thank him heartily.

Finally, a special thanks to my wife, my muse, as I write each evening to the music of Leonard Cohen. She is my inspiration and my untiring reader.
