AD has some of the kindest, supportive people I have had the pleasure to encounter.
Thank you all for your support. I have made several posts on "The Roundtable". Your response has been just overwhelming! As has your support. I receive so many hits on my material I post. All struggling writers know (or they had better), what a tremendous boost this is to the morale. Selling a book today to a mainstream publishing outfit like Random House is more difficult than ever, due to our volatile ecomony. And having to publicize your own work with a smaller company is a huge challenge. It is folks like you at AD, that keep me going when I get disccouraged (but I never give up). I hope to return the favors--and there are so many debts of gratitude to pay back!!
You are all so wonderful, kind and I feel like we are a family of authors with much in common.
As deafness, illness, and demonic forces close in around him, Ludwig van Beethoven must summon his faith and genius to complete the Missa Solemnis—a sacred masterpiece he believes could bring divine light into a darkening world.
My second book is about a boy who has Asperger's Syndrome and is bullied to the point to where he shoots up his school. I have divided the excerpts from it into three parts: Before, during and after the shooting.
