The second episode of my book-in-progress is now online, right here. Please take a look, and, as ever, fire off your comments. The comments on the first episode were both liively and very helpful, so we’re making future comments much more visible. The second installment takes the book further than the first one did. (It would have to, wouldn’t it?) I’ll be eager to hear what you all think.
The book, by the way, is going to be read in a couple of college classes, might get on the radio, and excerpts might appear on other websites. If anyone is using the book in any other way, or has any other syndication ideas (for lack of any better term), please contact me. I’d love to hear about it.
