I have had a busy summer. Hence, the reason I have not had a chance to write as much as I would have desired over the past three months. The summer was both good, and bad, as things tend to go. The good included publication of two books – mine and another aviation title. The bad, well it included a fall by my wife and an unexpected trip to the hospital. Don\u2019t fall, don\u2019t break bones. It is no fun.<\/p>\n

I was working on June 13 when I heard a funny noise from the bedroom. Dashing back to find her, I discovered her sitting on the floor. What followed was a late night trip the emergency room and surgery to repair the damage. Not fun and I would encourage everyone to be careful. Our new mantra is, \u201cNo slipping, no falling, no tripping.\u201d<\/p>\n

During this time, I worked when able at finishing my book, PSST! Wanna Know a Secret?\u00a0<\/em>I wanted to get something out there for high school grads, new college students, and other young people. Take a moment to check it out at psstbook.com<\/a>, a dedicated website just for that book. My hope is that it gives direction in life and finances to some of those who need it.<\/p>\n

The other book we finished was Trans World Airlines A Book of Memories<\/em><\/a>. What a great book! Compiled by Jon Proctor\u00a0and Jeff Kriendler, this is a collation of stories written by those who loved, worked for, or were otherwise associated\u00a0with TWA during the time this line flew the skies.<\/p>\n

It is a large format book of 8.5 x 11 inches with 282 pages of stories and color photographs. It is available through BluewaterPress LLC<\/a> or other online retailers. If you order through BluewaterPress LLC, use the code \u201cTWABWP\u201d and we will reduce the price by 15 percent.<\/p>\n
