Hello, everyone!

Once again,thanks for checking out my blog.  I really appreciate it.

I have some exciting news for you this time--on a couple of subjects.

First of all, we've finally got a date for the OFFICIAL LAUNCH OF THE SECOND EDITION OF CHRONICLES OF A BLESSED MAN.  
For those of you new to this site, that is my first book, which has been available only on Amazon for the past few months. NOW we'll be launching into bookstores, starting with a great little store called Another Read Through, located at 3932 N. Mississippi Avenue, Portland Oregon 97227.

You can discover how a near-death experience changed my life- and how I looked at it.

We'd love to have you join us for refreshments, fellowship and some good reading, at 8:00 PM on Thursday, September 5.


But, that's only the beginning!  My second book, God's Not Done With Me Yet, Close Calls and Miracles,  the whole story of my life (up to now), my various careers and all the close calls I've survived, is ready for editing and will sent to my editor, Brenda Ayala, yeshellothisisme@gmail.com.  Brenda is taking time out of her busy schedule to do me a favor,so that I can get this story out to you.

I'm also looking for a great cover artist, so if you know any excellent graphic artists, send them my way, please?

The first novel, working title, Died Too Young, a murder mystery set in the PNW is coming along well.  More on that soon!

Our planned- and long-awaited- video series on the kata (forms) of Shukokai Karate is also coming along.  Now I understand why it takes so long to get a movie from script to release--and I don't even have to write this stuff- just do it well enough to serve as an example.

That's about it for this time--once again, if you can, please join us on September 5 at Another Read Through for our launch celebration.
