The Professional Noticer: Take Three with Michael Perry

Had the pleasure of my third chat with New York Times super-bestseller Andy Andrews of Alabama. He discovered my books thanks to a tornado and an independent Wisconsin book store, Arcadia Books. We don’t have the same accent, but we talk a lot of the same talk. I so enjoy our visits.

This time we talked about my newest book Hunker: Brief Essays on Human Connection and the reality of the writing life. We also had a great discussion about writing craft and the process for writing novels. We also shot the breeze about what I’m working on now…and I read a story about running into a tree while chasing a chicken and how that might damage a fella’s, um, intellectual property.

Welcome to Sneezing Cow

Howdy folks, if you’re looking for the new book Hunker, it’s here. Also available at your local independent bookstore…they will probably have to order it but let them know it’s available through Ingram, and they’ll know what to do.

All the other books are here.

Info on Mike’s weekly “Voice Mail” is right here. This has really been picking up steam lately. It’s a mini-podcast that shows up weekly in your email In Box. There are both free and subscription options. Here’s more in-depth information, and here’s a subscription link.

Finally, if you haven’t already, please sign up for the Sneezing Cow mailing list so we can let you know if Mike has a new book or music out, and if he’ll be performing live in your area.

Book Van

First printing sold out, had to swing by the printer and get another van load. Backed right up to the loading dock beside two semis. And this is in addition to all the indie bookstores out there selling them. Thank you! Get yours here.
