July 13th, 1985 - 40 years ago today. One of my best memories of the 80's. There will never be another event like it. Look at this lineup!
There's also a huge #LiveAid connection in my new book "Beyond What We Know!" See if you can spot the fiction on the left - and here it is from the new book!

Today the first batch of author copies of the new book arrived. It almost doesn't seem real and yet here they are! What an incredible writing journey it's been. I am so excited for everyone to read this story and hope you'll check it out and go back to the 80s with me when it's released in August!

Had to do some finishing touches on the ebook version of "Beyond What We Know." The new release date (for both formats) is now on what would've been my dad's 79th birthday, August 31st. You'll see why the wait will be worth it. #writing

My father was a huge inspiration for my new book, "Beyond What We Know," particularly this photo of him from 1965. Happy Father's Day to all the great dads out there, and to the mothers who perform the same role. Miss you, Dad. #FathersDay #Books

Today, my little buddy turns 60. She rolled off the assembly line in San Jose, CA on June 1st, 1965. We celebrated by taking a cruise and then for morning coffee. I wish Ford hadn't destroyed all the records for these early cars. I'd love to know how it made the trip across country to Pennsylvania.
