Books
Poets: Shakespeare, Chaucer, Yeats, Seamus Heaney, Bukowski, Billy Collins, Alan Ginsburg
Stories: Patrick O'Brian's Jack Aubrey Steven Maturin books all 20 - some I have read 3 times plus. The best stuff one could read hands down -- history, psycholgy, drama, love, lust, drug use, Irish nationalism, LOTS of music -- introduced me to Archangelo Correli, Luigi Bocherini and a passle of 18th century Italians whose small string ensembles were the rage at the time of the Napoleonic wars and are still the best background for writing, thinking, dining....
Jim Harrison and Elmore Leonard for wild-west stuff. I used Leonard in classes because his DIALOGUE is dyn o mite and always the message of racial and sexual inequality pops up and is punished.
Heroes
Muhamed Ali, Reggie White, My Dad, My Mom, My Sister, Tom Dyer, My wife, Bishop Larry Snow, Prof Ted Zink, Sugarlips the dog, Bill Gabriel, Charles Bukowski, Jack Kerouac, Steve Earle.

I'm finished with A Demon Awaits , just waiting for cover art now.
In the meantime, I'm planning a winery tour to visit the winery where Sin and Vengeance takes place. So far I've gotten a grea response, so I hope it will be a great event.
Happy Monday,
CJ
I can't wait for October 15th!

I hope to post up-to-date news about m'adventures, information about m'self and m'crew ... drink some rum, generally 'ave a good time.
Do ye like the music for m'site? Puts me in mind of moonlit nights, sailin' under tops'ls only, m'crew on deck passin' the rum round. I'm at the helm, one hand gentlin' the wheel, the other arm round the waist of the one I love, the breeze brushin' m'cheek;
Someone gets out a fiddle ....
ah, bein' a pirate, its a good life. Savvy?
