Let's Party Like it's 1864! - Honest Abe's Imagination Celebration
The Nevada Museum of Art in Reno hosted a steampunk-themed party Saturday, November 1, to celebrate the State’s sesquicentennial anniversary. Nevada became the 36th state on October 31, 1864, just days before Abraham Lincoln’s November 8 presidential re-election. The four story museum was transformed into party central, with bars and sweet and savory hors d’oeuvres on three of its four levels. El

“Ardent believers hide within the safety of their absolutes, for much more courage is needed to abandon their cozy security for the questioning of ones own beliefs.”
― The Psalter
― The Psalter
“The first day of spring, the vernal equinox—the season of renewal when the earth sheds its winter cloak, flowers bloom, and the heart feels as though everything is once again imaginable. The smell of fresh-cut grass, shagging fly balls, and scraping mud from baseball cleats. A brief contemplation and tear for those gone from the field, their easy laugh and nimble sprint no longer gracing the game.”

It's certainly my pleasure, Cheryl. It's what every writer aspires to: to have their words enjoyed by readers -- even writers who are slow starters. So, thank you, sincerely.

No worries mate. Me and an enterprising group member got them posted on the "free reads" thread for US and UK.

I could do a one-day free promo so those who missed it could get the book. Perhaps we could coordinate so the maximum people would know about it. Perhaps I could do an Event to notify the most people. I’m not familiar with the best way to do it, so perhaps you could advise.
Hey, Galen...Are you going to post your promo in the Book Review Exchange?

I’m working on the sequel to The Psalter now. Father Romano has to meet his destiny, and Isabelle and Pascal will be there to help him. I think it will be a trilogy, but there are even other adventures the three could have.
Will there be a follow up to the Psalter? I found it to be an intriguing book and would like to see what happens to Romano.

I love my Gibson. I had to invest in a left-handed neck anyway, so I thought I'd buy a Gibson; although I already had a very good Sullivan. I got a very good deal when they first came out with their newest tone ring after they re-discovered their original formula in a file cabinet when they bought Dobro. So I laid down good money for it. Glad I did.

Galen, thank you so much for your very kind friend request! We do have a lot in common, and I'm looking forward to great discussions with you. :)
