Put your pen to paper and write a word. The only real writer's block occurs if your hands are tied, or someone is pointing a gun to your head and telling you not to write a word. Otherwise, shut up and write.(less)

Really loved Most Important Memoir Ever Written Ever! Are you working on anything new? And if so, is it at all related to previous works, you mentioned Echo in MIMEWE a few times, a reference to Echo Detained.

Joshua Daniel Cochran Thanks, Corey... don't know why or how I missed your question, and apologize for the delay.

I'm currently working on a very different novel than The Most Important Memoir Ever, etc. It's a difficult book, as I am dragging an emotionally wounded protagonist on a journey that is surreal, humorous, and painful. No references to previous works in this one.

I've been encouraged to write more about Delasco, though, and may reprint one of his slim books of philosophy, with commentary, if I can obtain the manuscript. There is only one known copy of "Things Fall Together and Other Lectures," and Echo (aka Caleb Allen Nell) had it. Since his disappearance, I have no idea where to find him, or a copy of the book.(less)
