Update...
Absence from my website comes as little suprise to most. In fact, it seems over the past year I have been gone more than I have been active and posting. This is just becasue I have bitten off more than I can chew in life lately. So far this year we have had 8 full weeks and I have been gone for about 5 of them... primarily in New York but I also did a conference in Vegas for a week. I was also in a car accident on Jan 20th where I did some major damage to my new car and a little to my body and brain. So I have been battling back from that. Then there is the whole school thing. I am nearing the end but I am taking these classes that rob as much joy from my life as they do time. So work, travel, school, wreck... and let's not forget the book. Yes, the book... All revisions and re-writes have been planned and I hope to be able to put it to bed soon. There will be some info about the book posted on the site there after. I finished the first draft in September and basically walked away from it. I have let 4 people read it with a fifth awaiting the revised copy to be available. It will still be in the neighborhood of 375 pages when all is done. I am proud of it but too smart to be optimistic that it will ever find its way to the printing presses of a larger publishing house.
From here I am off to Cancun for a trip I won from IBM for pretending to do a good job, then I am in L.A. for a week doing customer meetings, etc. Then will come the build up for finals at school... the short of it is, you had better have more websites than just this one to visit over the next few months if you want regualar updates.
Everything is temporary, whatever time we get is luck, and better days are always forever out of reach if you can't find better things about these days we are living. Ok... that is enough from me.
