New Year’s Resolution

I don’t really do New Year’s resolutions because nobody sticks to them. The most obvious example is the throngs of people who will show up at my gym over the next six weeks. They will promptly disappear about mid-February. Happens every year.

Why make a promise on an artificial day of the year?

There are a couple of things I WILL complete in 2018.

My third book – The Connection – will be published some time in 2018. Given it was really my first book and thus I’m working from a completed first draft, publishing it this coming year should not be a stretch. What excites me is how the book starts off with a bang. Probably my best beginning (first few chapters), even though its my first book. The Connection takes place in a small West Texas town, has a bit of a science-fiction flavor, but also sticks to the writing and twists-and-turn style of my first two books.
First draft of my fourth book. Untitled. This one will be a departure, and it has something to do with weather. The setting is the Texas coast, so that should tell you something.
