Seven million people board the subways of New York City every day, each one with a story to tell. The Subway Chronicles: Scenes From Life in New York collects 27 of the tales, dramas, and comedies that unfold during the daily commute. From the "mole people" living in the subway tunnels, to the transit employees working behind the scenes, to the locals and tourists riding shoulder-to-shoulder in harmony, discord, and indifference, The Subway Chronicles offers a kaleidoscope of perspectives on this most public of spaces.
You have surely heard about the tragic death of a brave young woman who was murdered in Iran just for peacefully protesting with her father on the streets of Teheran.
I'm finished with A Demon Awaits , just waiting for cover art now.
In the meantime, I'm researching for my new book. I took a guided walk yesterday to explore wild plants you can eat in New England. It was very interesting.
The weather here is great. Everything is blooming and we're going to be close to 80 degrees tomorrow. I'm line-editing right now and the allergies are about the only thing that could keep me inside and working. A blessing? maybe.
Hopefully, everything will explode into bloom, fade and I can get back to feeling normal.
