I’m proud to say that Meeting my Heroes is now published, brought to you by Odd Hours Media! It contains all 75+ of the newsletter posts (edited!) plus some bonus stories including one very special one that came together very close to press time. The photos (and some bonus photos) are included, too – in color!

Meeting my Heroes is a lot of things, but one clear intent was a way for me to say thank you to all the folks who have shaped me, and to share their collected wisdom with those who know me.

If you’ve enjoyed the newsletter, I think you’ll really like the paperback (or ebook) versions! I’ve also posted a web site at meetingmyheroes.com.

The site has links to all sorts of places you can order the book in all sorts of physical and digital formats.

Also, I’ll be doing a reading from said book on Tuesday Jan. 6th in Chicago at a series called Tuesday Funk hosted by the great Andrew Huff. It’s at the Hopleaf so come for the great food and drink and also enjoy the reading (three other great writers will be there, too!)

And don’t worry, this won’t be the last of this newsletter. I’ve got a couple more stories yet to tell.
