Returing from my hiatus
After nearly six months of silence, I felt it was time to once again start posting as so much has transpired since my last entry.We left Patzcuaro in April and slowly worked our way north to Wyoming and a slow arc through the Black Hills of South Dakota before heading east to North Carolina.
It was a great chance to catch up with friends and family we haven't seen in some time and to spend a few weeks with Pen's mom in Hertford, NC. We moved to Nags Head, on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, in early June where we now live four blocks from the beach and two miles from where Orville and Wilber Wright lauched their first successful flight at Kitty Hawk. Pen resumed her graphics consulting business with a former client and I returned to radio where I am now the morning host on a heritage country station for one of my clients. I've done this to give them a chance to recruit a permanent morning host/PD. It's not a bad way to spend the summer as I anticipate they will hire someone before the start of the Fall ratings period.
Way too many irons in the fire. We are awaiting the close of a deal for our novel, Thatcher: The Unauthorized Biography of Blackbeard The Pirate, which has been shopped as a trilogy. Our agent feels confident that the first novel will be on the shelves by next summer.
In the meantime I am consulting a burgeoning talk network which is beta testing the format in a single market with the intention of fleshing out the network at the first of the year. I am talking to a few venture capitalists about a promising business venture and lending my media expertise for a charity that is trying to develop the Rwandan coffee industry.
We've much to do and so little time to do it in.
Hopefully, I can return to more active blogging over the next few weeks as I analyze domestic and global political issues that impact human rights.
Pax Gaea is very much alive and with much to share in the coming weeks.
